Nice!!!

Does it have any balls with that 3.5? I test drove a Cherokee with the 3.7 V6 and thought I was going to fall asleep by the time I shifted out of first. So.... I bought a HEMI

I like the color.

It sure does have some serious cab forward design incorporated. The relationship between the front wheels and the front bumper remind me of a BMW.

Before we bought one we rented the 3.5 powered Charger for a weekend.  It really has good power, something over 200 I think?  Anyhow, we really liked the car.  Though after my wife drove the V-8, she wasn't going back.  We ended up with a R/T with the Road & Track package (suspension, exhaust, +10hp).  It gets about 18-20 mpg back and forth to work, 25 on the highway.  

Good choice on the Charger!

I think dodge has made a pretty good car here, I just wish they didn't call it a charger.


I want an R/T version.

Nice ride buddy!

It's the only way they can sell them...............by making you think it's something it's not.

Yeah id love to have the R/T but it was a little out of my price range at the moment. Maybe in a few years i will upgrade to a higher model of this car. And an upgrade WILL be the car because i love it to death as it is.

Uh, have you looked at new chargers? You can get one with a 6.1L Hemi that makes over 400 hp. It's probably faster than those "old" chargers while getting better gas mileage, being safer, better handling and braking, and more comfortable. Oh yeah, forged 20" alloys too, and it looks badass.

I agree with everything you said but calling them a Charger is a marketing tactic more than anything.  I wonder what would happen if they called them an Intrepid instead?
