Shelby Charger, huh?.. proving once again that nobody can deplete the equity out of a storied name like Chrysler can.
 
Last weekend I parked next to a "Chrysler TC by Maserati". 'nuff said

I'm gonna guess about a 1985 Dodge Charger?
 
Yep, Dodge/ Shelby Charger GLH-S to be exact.

Datsun 280ZX, can't tell if it has the "Datsun by Nissan" badge or not. I saw a silvery powder blue one Monday.

Wasn't there some kind of performance version of the Dodge Omni. I remember it had some unusual alloy wheels with a circle pattern.

the ZX looks like the 2+2 model from the roofline.
 
Lemko, the Omni was also called a GLH. I think that is the one you were thinking of, with the phone dial wheels.

The Dodge Omni was a 5 door hatchback , the Dodge Charger a 3 door hatch.....the Dodge Omni was, in my opinion, bore more than a passing resemblance to the 80's VW Rabbit .

I think the Omni/Horizon was actually patterned after the Rabbit, to a degree. Didn't the earlier versions of them even use a VW engine? IIRC, there were two engines, one supplied by Peugeot and one by VW. One got phased out when the Mopar 2.2 became available, and eventually, the 2.2 was made standard.

The Omni name was used for both the Rabbit-looking 5-door hatchback and the longer hatchback coupe (the Omni O24).
