A true spypic... of at least the 2005 Charger NASCAR

The hood for a cup car I think is supposed to come from Dodge. So this is a good indication of a general idea of the front end.

also the grill on this car is a lot lower than the current Dodge that is in Nascar. If you look at other pics you can tell there is a big difference. That is why I think the front end of the Car and Driver pic is a little off.

Well you beat me to the post! But, I don't know, I just hope to God, DaimlerChrysler, doesn't screw up the Charger name. I mean people, think of Charger as the "icon" of the whole Dodge brand, even when it doesn't exsist anymore! But, it still puzzles me, we know more about the ME-412, than we do about the 2005 Charger production car.

i still like the original concept for the charger that they had a few years ago. the 2 + 2 hidden door version. that was an alright looking car. the car and driver version looks like a juiced up magnum. not a big fan of it.

I know very little about Nascar, but that charger looks pretty good!


btw 353 Hemi. I love your avatar!

The observant reader will notice that the Cup car looks a lot more like the '99 concept than like the C&D drawing. The thoughtful reader will come to some interesting conclusions based on the clash of images.

Alternatively, the lazy reader can get his butt over to Allpar, where this pic was dissected (with insider input) last night, for a much clearer understanding of what Dodge is up to. :-)

hopefully this is a good sign for the styling of the street charger -EW

If you compare the nose and grill section to the 99 Concept it is a perfect match tot he Casey Mears test car.

To me, if you look at the side view of Mears' test car, the profile looks like the current NASCAR Intrepid...but from the front the nose looks like the NASCAR Monte Carlos. I think the test car is a current model Dodge (with a different rear window) with a Chevy nose on it.
