Re: Charger poll.

1-4 actually . I thought this car would look better than the 300 ...which has grown on me , but its the total opposite . IMO , the Charger is incredibly ugly from all aspects of the outside of the car . I dont know what else to say about it , other than completely start over maybe

Re: Charger poll.

I would love it if DC would just put a manual, with a clutch, into one of these LX cars.

Cheaper price got my vote in the 4-way tie.

Re: Charger poll.

Personally I love the way the car looks. I just looks "tough" to me. Black, lowered, with some chrome 18s and tinted windows would look pretty mean looking.

I think the reason everyone hates this car is because it is a "Charger". If they called it something else, people would say "hey this car is pretty cool".

Re: Charger poll.

I could look past the ugly for about 2-3k less on the MSRP. The fact it's so close to it's sexier sybling in price makes the choice a no brainer IMO.

Re: Charger poll.

This thing is hopeless. I voted to make it a 2-door, but that only addresses the most obvious failing . They should try again with a clean slate-this thing's a loser.

Re: Charger poll.

I didn't vote because you didn't include an "all of the above"

Re: Charger poll.

It would make a massive difference to me if it had a good-looking front end. If they had produced the concept from 1999 I might not be driving my 05 GTP today.

Re: Charger poll.

Too bad this poll didn't have more options and allow you to pick more than one thing...

Exactly. There's no one thing that would make the new "Charger" attractive to me, short of a complete change in the all too familiar LX shape.

Re: Charger poll.

This poll needs a [Divine intervention or a very large paper bag] box.

Even beyond the whole Charger sedan thing. It looks like they tried to butch it up as an after thought to give it some credibility. Just doesen't work.

Re: Charger poll.

Interesting how many would find it more attractive if the only change was deleting 2 doors.

I don't mind the 4 doors, if only it were good looking and had a manual trans.
