It looks great. It's pure modern muscle. Nothing wrong with taking ques from other good looking cars, and IMO, it makes the EVO look silly... This is the first enticing 4 door muscle car to me since the 94-96 Impala SS. If the black painted front is too much for you, settle for the R/T Road and Track.

i actually like the current model srt chargers better. but not the rt or v6 models. really just the black or silver srt moedls, i think they look mean. not liken this at all, looks like they were tryin way to hard or had to many ideas they crammed into it, it doesnt flow.

O-M-F-G. Are they serious???

If a designer for Chrysler had told me to come up with about 10 ways that one could royally **** up the look of the new SRT-8 Charger.......making it mimic the front of an Evo X would have never crossed my mind.

Seriously....WTF? I was just starting to warm up to the new Charger's styling, and then they go and do this.

There is a variety of cars from around the world that use a contrasting front fascia style, it's hardly unique to Mitsubishi. Even GM uses it Down Under.

Like someone posted above, it looks mean, which I like. It has a real "man car" look about it instead of the "chick car" a lot of modern cars are sporting. Someone else mentioned the 96 Impala and again I agree. The G8, good as it was, just didn't have the right "look" for a muscle car.

If I had the bucks, I'd get it, especially since it's a lot cheaper than the CTS-V.

I guess I'm in the minority, but I like it just the way it is, including the wheels. Just get rid of the corny spoiler and make mine black or silver.
