well they basically look exactly like the 1970 version, with a few upgrades to the body supports, b-pillars, etc.

the photos are just of the shells on the production line, but it's obvious what they are.

somebody either is getting fired for that or its a publicity stunt, but either way that looks sweet.

thewilson, it's basically a Charger with two doors.

Pictures have been around for a while of the concept. These production pics aren't too excited. It's early production pics.

Cool still.

Yet another car I'll never be interested in and would never buy. But that's just my Hyundai-loving self thinking out loud.

It does nothing for me. Looks are mediocre, it's built by Dodge, and there are other RWD V8 options coming at the same time that I like better (Camaro, G8, etc). I see this as a limited niche vehicle, for the old-time-car lovers who want a modern rendition of the past.

yeah I wouldn't get it unless I was a chamillionaire. I'm more interested in the new camaro coming out. though I'm keeping my hyundai regardless (unless a sweeter elantra or tiburon comes out in the next few years)

Only if you're shorter than me. I fit in neither the Solstice or the Sky.
