Default Bodystyle change for one of our enemies (Chargers)



That's the ugliest *** I've seen in a long time.

On the fence about its face.

They tried WAY too hard to make it look more aggressive than it really is...

Someone on my local forum said the tails look like those from the FD RX-7.


And the front, a messed up Lancer X.

i think it was a failed attempt to make it look like the rear of the 70. personally i think if they want to make it look like a charger they would get rid of that extra pair of ****** doors.

the back is the best part, homage to the 68-70's. The front is the messed up part. Like the design guys got as drunk as they could and swung sledgehammers at the front of the car until they finally passed out.

Not a fan of the new design, but I think it looks better than it did lol. For some reason, the spoiler and rear end reminds me of the overall shape of the GTO's.

I like the current body style they have now. The face isnt bad at all but the back looks like a challenger. They took away the wide hips that the charger has..Looks almost like an evo lancer even though they share the same parts. As far as performance, they are supposed to have more powerful engines in these cars. A new 3.6L with 290-300 hp, 5.7L HEMI 380 hp and 400 lb-ft torque and a 6.4L HEMI for the SRT8 with 475 hp and 460 lb-ft torque. GM needs to do something to compete with that..Bring the impala SS back. Give it a 396 6.5 V8 with 450 hp.

You have a very valid point, sir. The new Camaro is so ugly I forget it exists... The new Charger has the 2nd ugliest *** I've seen in a long time.

I like the '10+ Mustang rear, it's contoured.
