The SRT8 Charger will have more power out of the same 6.1L HEMI then the 300C SRT8 has.

 

IS it too late to revive the VOLARE name??????

 

Here's the best spy shot I could find for the Charger coupe.

That's crazy,it's not like it's the name Camaro or Firebird or mustang,names that's been relevent for at least 40 years or a name that offered some kind of continuity for a long stretch of time. IMO,the Charger was only "right" from '68-70. '66-67 was a Dodge Marlin and the '71-whatever was a bloated looking neutered personal coupe-type car like a T-bird or Monte Carlo,sure the Marlin-charger and the early bloated chargers offered hot engines,but they were still awkward looking and hardly as popular as the coke bottle chargers,Not to mention those FWD chargers,the shelbys were neat but cult cars at best. 3 years does not make a car,if the Charger had been in continuing production for 40 years,like a mustang or 35 years like a F-body....and THEN,dodge makes it a 4-door,then i'd personally start the hate mail myself.
The Charger name has no continuity,like the T-bird and Cougar names,besides,like Carroll Shelby always said,if the car is great,the name won't matter and if the car is bad,the name won't save it.
Any of this ridiculous hate mail needs to be directed to the makers of the Dukes of Hazzard TV show and the upcoming movie . The producers of that crap have done more to to destroy chargers than Dodge did or will ever do,i don't care if it's only V6 or 318 chargers or junkers,Dukes of Hazzard should be at the top of any hate list any car lover has for the incredible amount of cars destroyed for an incredibly horrible show....and the movie will destroy more,where's the uproar over that??
If it's awesome,4 doors or not,who cares?? I'd drive it,they didn't make 4-door 300 letter cars and you see how well that new car is doing,c'mon dodge,show some backbone and keep the name!!

 

The Charger is one of the top 5 cars that people reconize(sp?). I don't think it is another T-bird or Cougar. When you say HEMI most people say Charger. The names go together. Sure the car hasn't been around as long as the Camaro, Mustang, Corvette, or Firebird, but it is a well know name out of Detroit. Probably Chrysler's most know car name they have.

 

I would have to think Viper before that..and what about Cuda? you say HEMI 'cuda you know what your going to get ohh I know that car!

Id say Viper Cuda charger...then Omni GLHS... j/k saw one yesterday mint condition I was like man nice car..guy driving was like that little thing??
