So the EXACT reiteration is a rebadged 300? They didn't even make 300s
during the Charger's hay day. I really think that Dodge is just throwing
around a lot of retro names to get interest, but not backing it up at all.
As stated, the concept Charger that floats around in shows is a real
iteration, it's even a 4 door I believe, but the 2nd set of doors are hard
to see. And while the Charger was a big car, I don't see a 426 Hemi in this
one. All cars were big then, and the charger was too, but they had big
motors to push them. And lets face it if it keeps going the Hemi will be in
every car in the DC line-up just to say it is. It's as much a Charger as
the Ram was a Rumble Bee or GTX. I just think it's a complete crock
comparable with the (sarcastic comment coming...)oh so venerable Silverado
SS!

You show me a Charger that was a rebadged version of a European inspired
sport-touring sedan and I'll admit defeat but that's EXACTLY what this car
is.
