Exclamation 4dr Charger NOT Magnum sedan!

Pulled this off the Allpar board, so take it for what it is worth.
Hey Guys,
YES: There Will be Magnum Wagon & Magnum Sedan.

The Magnum sedan Is NOT the Charger!

There will be A 4 door Magnum Sedan
(supposedly it was to be only the police package Enforcer, but it looks like it may become offered to the Public!)

ChargerSedan/coupe Is different (i hope sedan gets a different name)

There Will BE A SERETCHED 300 ---> 300 New Yorker Or Just New Yorker Or Imperial Believe IT!
I am thinking that possibly that if these rumors are true, then the 4 dr will be named the Charger and the 2dr will be named the Daytona. Only time will tell.

Why would Chrysler have a Magnum sedan and a 300C?

Chrysler's designer made this clear after the Geneva Auto show, where Chrysler 1st confirmed they would be making a 4 door "coupe" for Chrysler.

The Charger will look nothing like the 300C, and share no external sheetmetal. It will also be slightly shorter and lower than the 300C. It's also reasonable to think it's also going to be lighter.

Z284ever already went into alot of detail on the car, including the fact that Chrysler's calling the car a "coupe" even though it has 4 doors. The only thing being said about it's design is that it doesent look like a sedan at all. That plus a rumor about it having rear "suicide doors" leads me to believe it's probally a coupe much like the Saturn Ion in theory.

We'll know more this summer.

As I understand it, the second round of LX cars will have shortened 116 inch wheelbases and will be true pillarless hardtops. I emphasize the "pillarless hardtop" part.

Sounds like the cars of the 60s with the roll down back windows.

well i've always seen it as chevy vs. ford and doge/mopar as completely different. even though i won't have money for a long time (bout to go to college) if i did, my money would be going towards a charger, man those cars wherer great (not like i'd know, seeing as i'm only 18) but i think diamler/dodge can really make a good car, as long as diamler has nothing to do with it.
