Re: Saw a Charger on the road and got 1 picture of it

maybe this post should be deleted because I took a picture of a car on the busiest street in the state in daylight. I am the only one that can verify where the picture came from. Please ignore the others cars in the picture. They are not public domain. LOL>

Re: Saw a Charger on the road and got 1 picture of it

I don't understand it, if they drive it IN PUBLIC, and people SEE IT, why not be able to take a pic of it? What is there to spoil? How could it even hurt sales? The car is a disgusting turd as it is, and it's an insult to the one I own........people are all going to see it anyways......

We're just joking as to all the recent fuss on this message board, where you need a DNA sample and a retinal scan from a source before you are allowed to report any RUMORS. There is obviously nothign wrong with me taking and posting this picture.

Re: Saw a Charger on the road and got 1 picture of it

yahoo photo is still messed up. Maybe DCX owns yahoo and I can expect some lawyers at my door for posting a pic taken on a public street. Me and the wife and the dog better hide in the bomb shelter. Or, wait for yahoo to fix its website.

I know, maybe we crashed yahoo photo from all the traffic of people going to see it. LOL

Good picture.

If anyone's intrested, at this years NAIAS, Dodge will jump right into 2 special editions of the car. One will featuers a early 70s themed version with flat black hood and engine decals. The other one I'm not sure of, but I'm guessing it's the SRT.

All will be on the market in March or April.

Ah, I see it now. That back end kinda looks like a Stratus... And in no way does it resemble a coupe.

I don't mind the looks at all...

I mind the name a lot. What the hell is wrong with calling it a Magnum? That's what it is!!!!!!!!

Okay,i just gotta ask.....How is a RWD car with 340HP,390 pound-feet of torque,cylinder deactivation,5-speed mercedes automatic,along with E-class suspension bits and every option you could want or need,all for about 30K......how is that an insult to a drum braked BASE 318 Marlin....oops,Charger????? What,2 extra doors makes a car junk? Hardly! This car will rock,and don't go picking fights with the V6 Charger,that thing will eat your 318 alive. Jesus,we car people whine and whine about wanting a RWD V8 cars and chrysler gives us exactly that and all everyone does is complain. The old charger was just a sporty BIG car,It was like a Grand Prix or T-bird,if it stayed in production from it's RWD days,i guarantee it would be 4-doors by now,probably FWD,what's the big deal??? Look to the '94-96 Impala SS,look at how fondly that car is remembered,there were NO SS 4-door impalas in the '60s,yet the new car was and is embraced. If the car is good,2-doors,4-doors,it won't matter!
Styling is subjective,DRIVE THE CAR,then form a opinion. I can't wait,it'll be worth buying one just to **** off purists who can't get out of the '60s!

Re: Saw a Charger on the road and got 1 picture of it

Ugh....not very impressive for a car with the name Charger. Maybe this will give people at GM a second chance to put a Camaro together the right way?
