I think its to similar to 300C or the SRT. Should have been a little more sporty and radical. JMO

When I first saw the photo on the news this morning I thought "Looks like the K car is back."

Doesn't seem to be much support here for the new Charger. I wonder who they think will be buying it?

You betcha...........what a disappointing, undesireable, lame, common, unexciting piece of ....... !!

I remember when I saw the first pictures of the 2005 Mustang, HOW EXCITING that was - NOW with the Mustang finally available ........very VERY tempting to get one, but the Charger ??? Not even a flicker or a spark of excitement - like BeWare said: "doesn't get my heart racing either" !!

I am always amazed at how any car manufacturer can make 2 or 3 almost identical cars and slap different labels on them and get the public to think they are different cars.

While not altogether bad, this is just a slightly reworked 300. Definitely NOT a Charger. More like I am taking the kids to piano practice car.....

I just hope they didn't pay a bundle for the design team to just copy the other guys homework.......

Like anything else, dealers are asking rediculous prices for them right now. Give it 6 months and the streets will be flooded with them at below sticker.

I've seen about 10-15 on the road.

Seen the prices on the Ford GT's on eBay, they must think these are Ferrari's or something.

Lucky you - here in our area the dealers have NO Mustang GT's in stock - only the V6's........I am supposed to take pictures of a GT for a friend in Germany which wants me to buy one for him - I've been calling the dealer for weeks now and as soon as the GT's come in they're sold immediately !

Looks like another car designed by committee and then stepped on be the suits. No guts, no glory. I don't even want to see one at the local dealership. Reminds me of Melba toast !!! Obi-Wan
