I open up jalopnik, and i'm greeted with this beauty
(IMG:http://betacache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/12/2011/02/xlarge_2012-dodge-charger-srt8_08.jpg) http://jalopnik.com/#!5755755/2012-dod...power/gallery/1 almost everything coming out on the showroom floor this year is love it or hate it, and in all honesty i approve of this design. all too obvious is the "it looks like an evo on hormones" look, but i see it this way: the evo x is shaped like a pig, short, snubby nose, broad, shapeless rear end, and a roofline that screams "i go faster greased" now, take all of that, and put the cute little piggy back in the wild. if you don't know, even domesticated pigs return to their wild boar stage if left in the wild, and that's whats happened here. it's sleeker than the fat whopper of the last charger, and gnarlier that an evo, reguardless of looks. |

I'm not sure about it, it looks too clumsy to me. It's like they said, "how many 2nd gen charger references can we fit into one generic 4dr?"
I really don't now what to make of it. I don't love it, and I don't hate it. Maybe it'll grow on me... Edit: Look what i found in the comments (IMG:style_emoticons/default/xd.gif) (IMG:http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/comment/12/2011/02/d551e200a887082cec7755ab4762eb8b/original.jpg) goatseeeeeee!

old charger is boring and tame, IMO. i like the new aggressive one, you never know, they might actually paint the cross bar on the final version (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif)

Yeah its pretty ugly... Mainly the profile of the car. it looks way too long and the vent is too far back. The kink in the middle also makes it look like the frame is broke and the car is caving in.
The front is much nicer then the old one though. |

I actually like this new look but it reminds me of lancer, you know, like if they took lancer front bumper, touched it with a hammer and placed it on this car

The new charger's a load of s**t.
how was it designed? 2 Door, big lazy V8. GT land barge with the most horsepower of a production car of it's Era. Today, what is it? 4 door auto fat lazy family car. f**k the charger. |

The Zonda is really what Pagani stands for, that's why they don't make other models. If you see this new thing with the annoying name, you won't be like: Oh! It's a new Pagani!

Pagani is making a new model called the Huayra. Which is kinda like the Zonda.
I have mixed feelings about the front but the rest is sexy. |

I saw a couple commercials of the charger on tv, it doesnt have the big ass grill. just the chrome top part and 1 part under.
thats 2011. and that pagani is a different model, you cant rly say its not how it used to be, since there never was 1 before (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif) thats the same as saying a honda pilot isnt how a civic used to be This post has been edited by Faяaп.: Feb 25 2011, 11:36 PM |

I know a few people who really like those chrome Acura fronts. I'm not one of them though.
As for the door vent, they are trying to make it look like this: (IMG:http://www.pantownclassic.com/images/showroom/69dodge/side.jpg) The tails too: (IMG:http://image.moparmusclemagazine.com/f/9364208%20w750%20st0/mopp_0602_04z%201969_dodge_charger%20rear.jpg) |
