sounds like my thread from last March, and no one really took notice..maybee they will now? I too though this, make people think the car thats been racing turn it into a street machine, I can see the comercial now, "what we race on the track can now be found on the streets! Introducing the new 2006 Dodge Charger!"

take a look anyways on the original thread

I saw it on a Coast Guard magazine about a month ago (it's a sponsor). You really can't tell what the car looks like (beyond the nose piece) because of NASCARS' policy of making all cars look as much alike as possible. So looking at the new Dodge NASCAR car hoping to see the new Charger is all but worthless.

The car is NOT a Stratus.

If it is, it yet again looks like every other Dodge front end of the last 5 years. Whoopee.

Just one small piece of the puzzle, Guy.

Kinda like the GTO and Pontiac's. But still we aren't gonna be able to really make it out until the car is actually out.

This fits the "shark nose" that has been rumored for the new charger. Apply that nose and the 99 Charger concept back half, and I think you have the new Charger.

Kind of like this Probably with normal doors though.

Could be....

Some who have seen it, describe the nose as a cross between Magnum and Viper.
