Re: The coupes are coming, the coupes are coming.....from DCX!

I'll be in the market for a 2 door rwd coupe in 18 months (GTO will be paid off) We just picked up a 300C and I would love a 300C coupe SRT-8. But a Cuda would be nice as well!

Fast Cruiser or DCX Pony car.... hmmmm????

I think it looks wicked.
I'd love a big car w/ a big trunk with a big back seat, RWD V8, and ONLY 2 DOORS.

GM's going to answer Chrysler and Ford with new a RWD coupe at NAIAS. They are not calling it Camaro but instead are calling it "Excuse." I know this because when I asked GM about a Camaro at NAIAS, they said there would be Excuses as far as the eye could see!

Regarding the Dodge performance coupe with a "six pack", which was rumored to be revealed at SEMA. Well it never materialized. But the conventional wisdom is that it would have been a Stratus coupe replacement, with an SRT tuned high output V6, and called Challenger.
Since Chysler is getting the 300 as a coupe, the other coupe will more then not be a Dodge. It is also rumored that both coupes will be available as hardtops and verts. These cars should sit on the SWB version of the LX.

I heard about a 2 door Chrysler 300 & a Dodge "ponycar".

But a 2 door Charger also? That would be a pleasant surprise.

Will the Dodge pony car be mustang in size and mustang in price? Or will it start at the "Mach 1" price range and up? Anyone have any info on this?

I would be suprised if it was Mustang sized, Mustang priced.....maybe. Probably more like current Cobra priced, somewhere in the 30k. These coupes will probably be more of a large coupe then a pony car. They will probably be more GTO in size.
