#185 of 522 Re: Challenger does look excellent [badness] by m1miata Feb 14, 2006 (11:27 pm)
Replying to: badness (Feb 14, 2006 7:20 pm) Well yes and no. Yes, the New Stang looks OK, though one could say too retro as in replica car. It is just new enough to where I would consider one. A nice looking car. It is just that they were doing fine with the previous styling. The interior, IMHO, was better looking and more functional before - using the instruments as an example. And one burning question is where to next? Hopefully not a full replay, or we are into the Pinto years.   The New Challenger looks good, as does the Camaro. Just lower those doors if possible. The whole cars now-a-days look too bulky. And one note of caution, or is this another note on the same line, beware of the Challenger being too retro, as in replica, plastic car reproduction look.   One more thought. What would have happened if people in 1970 did opt to buy a 1935 styled car? Now that would have seemed strange. That said, the mid-60's thru earliest 70's cars did stand out as real classics with enduring graceful lines which do stand the test of time.   Loren Replies to this message: badness (Feb 15, 2006 11:46 am) artichoke50 (Feb 15, 2006 5:22 pm) badness (Feb 17, 2006 3:20 pm)

#188 of 522 Another Bait & Switch? by itsnotacharger Feb 16, 2006 (3:21 pm)
Unlike the hideous midget Charger with the Dakota grill, the prototype Challenger appears to have some sheet metal DNA from the original Challenger. My question is will DCX pull another Bait&Switch routine like they did after parading the sleek, eye-catching, and aerodynamic 1999 Charger prototype to auto shows, only to roll out the stubby Checker Cab Charger.   If DCX management intends to insult true Mopar enthusiasts by serving an Egg McMuffin again, after showing us a Sirloin Steak, they can keep it.

#191 of 522 Speaking of E-bodies................... by dustyk Feb 16, 2006 (4:25 pm)
The teasing new Challenger seems to be more of a retro-Plymouth Barracuda to my eye. I note the filler panel in front of the leading edge of the hood, the way the rear quarter comes up to the hip, the rear taillight, all seem more Barracuda-esc to my eye.   Regardless, I think its beautiful even if they called it a Meadowbrook!   Regards, Dusty Replies to this message: twain (Feb 18, 2006 6:48 am) chuck1959 (Feb 19, 2006 4:08 pm) shipo (Feb 19, 2006 7:53 pm) chuck1959 (Feb 19, 2006 8:22 pm) upuaut (Mar 10, 2006 12:23 pm)
#192 of 522 Sidemarkers were stickers by dukeg442 Feb 17, 2006 (11:38 am)
Anyone notice the the yellow and red side marker lights on the Challenger were stickers?
#193 of 522 Could be a winner by ncskibum Feb 17, 2006 (12:30 pm)
If Dodge puts it out as designed, then they could have a real winner. It has similar lines to the old Challenger but with some new softening. Kind of like the current Mustang versus the first year Mach 1. Not quite the same but you can tell the linage!
