I think most of us have seen them.
And I think the judging is running in the direction of those not being Charger, but instead being a full-size Dodge sedan.

If that is the Charger then Dodge really dropped the ball. Way to make it look like a Magnum 300 C combo. It will be disappointing if those are indeed the Chargers. It needs to have some old influence like the new Mustang. If that is the Charger, it looks to have the same setup as the Magnum (wheels, and probably the run of the mill 3.7, 4.7, and 5.7 L engines). Oh well, we will see!

Those are the Dodge Magnum sedans comming out this summer. There is a picture of the new Charger (6.1 liter hemi engine) at http://www.popularhotrodding.com/features/0404phr_dodge/ that red 4 door is most likely exactly what is comming this summer. Notice the door handles are hidden this was done apparently to keep the Charger out of the 2 door sports car ins. rates but still retain the look.

The one below in front of the 2 old (but great) ones. Again I believe the new Charger is getting the new 6.1 ltr. hemi engine. Also I think its another 100 horse over the 5.7 hemi but don't hold me to that.

Now I like that other pic. Hopefully it'll have some power. 400 horsepower would be nice.

if they build it like a big fat stout 4door, it better have some damn power. call me crazy but the new "charger" looks too much like a 300c and nothing like a remake of the classic. other than the hopeful 6.1L, i just dont really see the point.

yeah but, its a sedan! lol!
ah well, it'll still be pretty cool, just doesn't have that two-door tire shredding muscle car appeal to me, like what i see when i see a classic charger. oh well, not like i could afford either one anyway lol :)

As far as I could tell, all those pix on the Popular Hotrodding site were all computer images... none were of an actual ride (except with the two classics behind it at the strip).
I really like the orange one and the red one at the bottom looks sick.
Bubba, the Popular Hotrodding images were created by a college student, not Chrysler. They are just someone's wishful thinking and nothing more.
This is the Charger. Like it or not (and I do like it...). :)

Yea, I know... I just wish that tht's how they did turn out. I think I'd like it a lot more if it only had two doors...

I think it would look great as a two-door myself, and I am hoping that we get to see a two-door version in a year or two. There are sources saying that a two-door Charger will be built but that it wont be called Charger. (Challenger?) If you read around there are more hints on this site as well as over at Allpar.com.

Chrysler will get a LX Coupe version though, of the 300.

Making A Charger A 4 Door, Is Like Making A "mushtang" A 4 Door.
It Is Like Putting A Elevator In A Out-house, It Don't Belong! :vhot:

Card and driver has an article on the charger. Think this will be closer to what to expect from the production model.
