its still dodge, so that sounds about right. i hate the big three. they represent everything that was right with america and now everything that is so wrong.

agreed (on the srt-4, and i like the challenger look too). the srt-4 introduction was a great idea, and well executed design. how they went from that to this blows my mind. further proof american car designs from the big 3 pretty much blow (with a select few exceptions of course).

Imagine if you have a 350z and you get smoked by this thing. Quite possible and more than a little embarrassing!

yeah.. but you agreed.. the challenger is pretty much kick *** 6.1 HEMI 425bhp, brembo brakes, manual.. and the overal looks are an instant classic.

hey, i left room for exceptions! and concepts don't really count either, because some of them look great before they become fuglified into production.
