Yeah - I don't like it as much as the concept - not at all. Decrease in hood length and round wheel wells are a big turn off. I wonder if the people putting sight unseen deposits on the first ones will come to regret it.

Why can the Corvette have a tail with no 'booty' bumper while the Charger has to have one?

Also, who made the ruling that we can't have overhangs anymore? You can't get the real retro proportions without it. The Concept had at least a little and they've gotten rid of it.

I LOVE that they shortened it. Should take some weight off of this hog. I also think it looks better shortened.

im not completely sold that some of those renderings are accurate...if you watch, when they have the masked mule to the rendering, the shape of the front end changes, as well as the rear spoiler area...

I like it how it is in concept better. It's a lot closer to the old school look!

Some of those renderings made it look alot like the new mustang, but I will make my final like -vs- dislike when it is actually made.

Looks dumb. lol

I clicked the link inside that link... it took me to a site where they have acutal photos of a Challenger shell on an assembly line. WTF is wrong with people?!? Cameras are not allowed, what do they not understand...

Employees are expected to have some sort of respect for the company that pays their bills.. People like this make me sick.

Sure, I have seen many "secret" sections of Chrysler, but never would I think of taking a camera with me in there...

I was like, OMFG! How could they do that, it looks like crap! Then I read the comments and they said it was not acurate. I would hate it if they did shorten the hood that much. That is one of the things muscle cars were about, huge pointless hoods!!
