it's not exactly what I had in mind for a Charger....reminds me of an updated version of a 300...

Depends if you like 4 doors? What do you think the Chevy guys would say if they came back with a 4 door Camaro?

Here are the most recent pics I've been able to find http://www.allpar.com/cars/lx/dodge-charger.html

I've heard alot of rumors about a 2 door charger but no confirmation.

I think it'll be more like a sedan version of the Magnum. Being a long time Charger fan, I don't think it'll REALLY be a Charger unless you flatten the grill and hide the headlights!

If this is truly it DC has missed it larger than GM did with the GTO in my eyes. But I guess DC has made a home run with the 300C, Magnum, SRT 10, Neon R/T, Pt Cruiser, Prowler, Viper maybe they can afford to have an Aztec on their hands. Maybe this thing should carry the Stratus name badge. Sorry if I upset any DC workers here but what a let down after they get our hopes up with the red concept car ( I did not care it was a 4 door ).

I drove my son's 1970 Charger 500 today. That thing that is to be the new Charger isn't even close. First off, its a four door--YUK! Appearance wise it just doesn't do anything for me. I certainly would not buy one.

I think they missed it on this one... The wheels and doorhandles look really cheap.

i was almost excited when i saw the concept 2005 mustang.... then i saw the final product and realized it was to good to be true.. they changed all the cool stuff,... the gto is a joke ...dc has so few dissapointments and so many success's.. one boo boo is forgiven..i just hope they don't make a "challenger" that looks like a corvair

extremely disappointed in the car. The concept of only a couple of years agot was a home run. That was a must have car and very much a charger. This is a nameplate only. I drove chargers for nine years; this is not a charger. JMHO

Now that last one looks like a Crossfire with a front end change. No resemblance to a Charger at all.

i agree.. more like a crossfire than a charger.....maybe someone should send them a pict of a 68-70 charger .. they seem to be confused...

The coupe picture above is a photoshopped Bentley Continental. Look at the rear quarters.

The color is RIGHT, but I am disappointed at the overall shape... thought is should be more "slippery" looking.

This should have been a Prowler color for sure.

I think that a while back, when this was being discussed, that I indicated then that the production Charger would not look like the concept Charger.......which is a shame.
