I've mentioned it before (Dodge's upcomming Intrepid Charger concept). Here's more speculation.

I hope they make it. I don't see why not when they are putting HEMI's in everything, it only makes sence. Why not make a real performance version/musclecar. Why not a Challenger too?? Musclecars are on the way to becoming a neccessity again in the U.S. for carmakers, if they are affordable enough for the people that really want them to get the sales they want.

 

If it looks anything like that concept on their homepage, I want one, now.
I saw pictures of it from a car show years ago and nearly creamed my pants.

 

I'm sure it'll be coming. I personally think the 69 Charger is about the best looking sports car ever made, and I'll admit the words "Hemi V8" make some small part of my brain come to full attention. If it's as good looking as the original, it might make me sell my Zed.

 

There's no other pictures of the Charger concept besides whats on the site right?? They could have at least had a front view of the car.

 

linky

 

Thanks.

 

Wait...that's the 99 concept Charger right? I thought they decided not to make that car after the merger with Daimler. I thought they had another coupe with a HEMI in it.....called the HEMI coupe or something like that....it looked understated to me. Of course I love the 99 concept.

The only thing about the old chargers that I think some people don't remember or realize is that they were HUGE for a coupe. They look almost 1/3 bigger than a 1st gen Camaro....

 

the original engine they had in it ran on methanol or something didn't it
i have it in a popular hotrodding from a few years back i just dont feel like sorting through magazines right now

 

If it looked like that and had a Hemi V8 pushing around 350hp to the rear wheels with a manual available GM just might have to kiss my *** goodbye.

 

A little more about a new Charger (from CNN of all places!).

That concept Charger is one fine looking car and with a 350 hp hemi motor, wow! I've never owned a Chrysler product but if they make that car, or something close, things might change. Chrysler would be smart in producing that car, it looks like it will appeal to alot of people.

 

guion, did you see the most stolen list they have?? How did a B-Body that hasn't been in production for 6 years make the list?? Do they mean the Impala?? I wish it was in production.

 

It ran on compressed natural gas , it was supercharged and made 325 H.P. Looking back now it bears a striking resemlance to 4th gen Camaro, from the front view.I knew there was a reason why I liked it back then. Seariously though last I heard Daimler decided against it saying that it would take sales from some of its mercedes, which I thought stunk.

 

HAHAHAHAHA!! I guess this is his attempt to appeal to the American car culture of people wanting brute torque muscle cars.
