Won't happen. It's still too early. From every indication the next Camaro will not come out in "concept" form but will be a pre-production model....hopefully at NAIAS 2006. The C6 Z06 will provide the buzz in the Chevy area this January.

Re: Dodge.com says: "Charger is almost ready, are you?"

seems like people are starting to get a bit "tired" about this Camaro waiting, including myself the other big 2 will have RWD V8s

still GM is thinking about a new Camaro later rather than sooner..

my 2 LT1's are getting older..

Good point. The Z06 would take all the spot light from the new camaro if they came out the same time. That wouldnt be a good start for it. In 2006 it should get all the attention

I'll be ready when Dodge creates a two door, RWD, v8 powered stylish coupe. Then I'll be ready.

Re: Dodge.com says: "Charger is almost ready, are you?"

I would be glad to have a Dodge version of the 300C. I hope it is geared deeper, and weighs slightly less. I can see the Charger with Thorley headers, true flow intake and a corsa exhaust. A superchips programmer for the crappy TMR/TCM and I would be happy as pie. On a side note, the Thorley headers I installed on my wife's Ram really woke it up. I am looking for some unsuspecting Lightnings I can get a jump on. (Can't race one from a dead start, I would need nitrous for that)

exactly its a hemi version of the stratus and to be honest the styleing looks very simular. Even the tail lights in the c&d issue look the same. All they did was add a magnum nose and rims. Def not worthy of the charger name. If i were the mopar guys i would be pissed

My thoughts exactly.

Are you suggesting that you'll take one from a roll race? Given their superior aerodynamics, tq figures, and quite possible hp figures, as well as less weight, taking one on with your mods would probably end in a loss. What do you think your truck is putting down now?

Re: Dodge.com says: "Charger is almost ready, are you?"

guion, are the Enforcers in full swing? I keep hear from guys that the Enforcer was just the Magnum that was released a while ago. Could this be the Enforcer? I have also heard that the Charger is NOT suppose to be the Intrepid replacement anymore. Is there any truth to this?

There are a LOT of people saying the C&D car is the Charger, but there a few that actually work for Chrysler that say wait. I really don't know what to think, but I am sure of one thing: I think we will all be pleasently suprised at NAIAS from Chrysler.

edit: BTW, all the insiders keep saying the number of doors are right, but that suggest that the type of doors are wrong.

14.18@92.7. I have beaten some Harley Davidsons, and come close to some Ls who couldn't drive. SS Silverados can be had.
