That is the best looking modern Charger yet!

Except for one small detail....It still has 4 doors!!! ....:mad2:

DOOMIE is right.....with just a 5.7L Hemi, that thing is lunch and dinner.

Saw a vid on the 2011 Challenger 6.4 (392cuin for you old timers). Runs high 12's NA. Put a blower on it and it'll run through Doomie like grass through a goose.:D

Guys, realize it's only the R/T..I'm sure an SRT-8 is soon to follow. I would only buy with 8speed auto, or full manual.

You and all your infinite wisdom. :rolleyes:

This coming from the genius that thinks marauders are 1,000 pounds lighter than chargers. :stupid: :shake:

You never mentioned anything about your crappy titan.

You told me my marauder had an 1,000 pound advantage over SRT/8's

Its cool if you dont want to admit your mistake now, i understand. :rolleyes:

The SRT8 is at the Chicago Auto Show, 465BHP stock. Looks a bit Lancer Evo-ish..but that muscle is hard to resist!

I don't like it.. I think they should have left it along ( the body) it looks funny.. I like the 2009,10 models..

A nice car but Id rather have the Challenger.

Where do I start...

First, the thing still looks like a peeled orange. Front end looks like a pickup truck and is almost the same size. copied the taillights from the Challenger, and this is supposed to be the heir apparent to the General Lee? :puke:

Way to ruin a fine history dodge, why don't you beef up a minivan next and call it Viper 2.0

I can't wait till one of the douchebags wants to run either of my cars, I'll be happy to show them what taillights are supposed to look like

I seen one the other day at the dealer RT. And I like it. Bottom line you get two flavors (350ci and 392ci) of NA POWER. I would wait though for the 2012 and the new transmission. Ford only has the SHO AWD turbo 6 which is nice. But give me a RWD V8 please.

You most likely know more about the classic model then I do but this one doesn't look more like the classic (without the two-door):confused:

... gotta agree with this. Is it me or does the back of the Charger, especially the rear spoiler kinda looks somewhat like a Mitsubishi Eclipse? I think it would've looked better with a duck tail type spoiler instead, and I'm also wondering if 2012 will bring in that new transmission.

That car has been in need of a new transmission since 06! :lol:

Rear end looks nice....front grille is growing on me....but the side...and the hood....dont like them at all.

Read an article on the 2012 Charger. I'd wait for it if you were contemplating a purchase. Supposed to be a lot more refined than the current model.

Look at the back, the car has a third brake light on the trunk lid, and above the tail lights its got a lip, so perfect for a spoiler delete..

I'm liking this car, not many options for full size cars with 465BHP stock out there, ford SHO is cool, but I'd rather have this.

Man. That is nice. I'd like to see the SRT-8. It would be nice to see the RT or a SRT-8 in my driveway. But the Marauder would get the garage.
