I just got a look at the new '11 Charger. Anybody else disappointed besides me?
Been disappointed with Mopar offerings since the '70's..the new charger frontend looks like a ram frontend:angry7::angry7::angry7:..mopar really needs to upgrade its styling department..
I have only seen picture. But I though it looked cool. What didn't you like?

The door scallops,the truck grill,just not enough changes.
That thing is freakin awesome, way better the the last version. A least it isnt a slammed together morphodite like the camaro, I say good job Dodge!
The Charger was always a 2 door muscle car.
Remember these?

Sure, the 4th gen could be had with a big block and the 5th gen could be had with a turbo, but muscle cars? My '76, as much as I loved that car, could have been considered a lot of things, but a muscle car wasn't one of 'em.
I'm not dissing any of 'em. Hell, I think this one sweet looking little machine:

I guess they fit the pre-requisite of being two doors, but when we start comparing the current Charger to the older ones, why does it seem that most folks forget the smog era or the FWD era of this badge?
Chrysler's badged a lot worse with great nameplates over the years. The Mitsu built Challenger comes to mind. The Ramcharger name plate went from being a high performance big block to being an air box to being a truck.
i agree, if they had named it something else, like belvedere or fury , it would have made it more appealing to me. the charger name just makes people expect a 2 door. i do like the body style, just not the charger name on it.They should have never used the Charger name on a 4 door family car...Period.
