I really don't understand this. In answer to all the complaints that the new 'Charger' has 4-doors, Dodge has said hey this is a new car and not a retro-project. Go buy an old Charger if you want an old Charger - this one just happens to have the Charger name. OK, fine, but then they do this and offer complete retro colors and stripes, down to the name of the color? Too much flip-flop for me. The only way they can make this come out OK is to put the 6.1 HEMI in it with a 6-speed manual - then maybe I could accept it. I'd buy a Magnum SRT-8 way before this.

I go back and forth as to whether or not I think this new Dodge "butch" look is cool depending on my mood. I don't think they are great, but I don't find them utterly offensive either.
I do think that like the very first Ford Probe, which today does not look sporty at all, this is a short lived fad. I think that many people will find them very cool right now, but it will not sell well three years from now. I do not see this becoming a classic style, just a flash in the pan. My $.02

Front end looks like a ripoff of the Nissan Skyline R34. Rear end looks unfinished. 4 doors is an incredibly stupid concession to the status quo. The Mustang sells with 2 doors, why not a Dodge? I don't like either color; I would hope they offer something else. I can't wait to see what they do wrong with the interior. Plastic cladding in the engine bay is played out. Please someone stop it already. Finally... NO WAY would I ever buy a performance car with an automatic.
I guess you could say I'm not impressed.
