There is a bunch of people who criticize the new Charger.
These are just people who do not appreciate change. I'm
positive the new Charger, once formally released, is going
to prove to be a very impressive car. I cannot wait for the
car to get released in January... (well, the info anyways).

Once again, i just wish there would be a true 2 door. I am sick of all these 4 doors and suvs on the market. Whatever happen to a 2 door car. I belive if the 4 door is a smash, like the 300 there will be a 2 door, because there is a 300 2 door coupe and convertible on the horizon. They share a platform already, so it shouldn't be a big deal.

i dont care if its a charger or any other old name.... its ugly

and think about it, the only reason they use the name charger is to get more attention to the car, they could easily call it something else

if this car had another name, i highly doubt anyone would see it or drive it and be like "wow this is just like the old chargers!"

Watch how many sales Dodge makes with this "ugly" charger. It looks good and different.

I think the new Charger is going to look pretty good.
Same fastback profile as the '66 Charger, but with a
more useful design (and that actually looks better).

I think they should throw it in the wind and see how much resistance they can achieve... Looks like a brick to me....

I like the Chargers, Challengers, Roadrunners and such, and the pics posted, look like a big huge brick in my eyes.... Not bashing, just throwing in my interpretation of what I see....
I'll stick with my nice sleek lines.....

I like it from the back...but the front is just uninspired/ugly. I'm not a fan of it.

I actually like the looks of it. It keeps the retro feel while bringing in the modern look. A couple visual mods and I think it will look BADA$S!

I think it looks like a pile of bloody dog sh1t. I didn't know you could beef up a Malibu and put a Dodge Charger name on it.

Well, Dodge at least made it RWD with a good V8 option before it whored the name out, unlike FWD V6 mal-ee-hoo.

Secondly, this really needs to be a 2 door, or at least offer one. Also, nice job on painting the mirrors.
