Default Cuda Concept with Camaro and Challenger

Looking at the pics of the Cuda on its own, I was thinking that I didn't really care for it. Seeing it with Camaro and Challenger just confirmed it! Its too short or dumpy lookin or something and the rear bumper looks rice to me.

And is it me, or has the Cuda taken its nose design from the quite magnificent Suzuki SC100 from the 80s?

Honestly I think the "New" Cuda looks like crap. The orange one above looks great. Ill still take the New Camaro over the rest though, but I am a little bias to Chevy.

I think the orange and black concept 'Cuda looks really good. I belive it sold for 140K at Barrett Jackson. However, that car was not built by Chrysler. It was built by a company that builds prototype vehicles for automakers. I love the shaker hood. IMHO, it looks better than the new challenger. That silver cuda concept in the first post looks like complete garbage. WTH were they thinking???? Here are a few more pics of the awesome prototype.

butt ugly!! thats what that cuda concept is, the grill looks like a cheap hack job, and the carbon fiber is just there to cover up the fact the grill is designed poorly

how about the crappy looking fog lights mounted in the middle of no where, with quality of crap a ricer would buy from autozone, sure its a concept that was thrown together but holy **** make it look like you give a damn

They all look like they have the same body lines other than a few tweeks. Almost look like the same Chassis.

Don't like the concept Cuba'.
It should look similar to the Challenger except with a more aggressive grill and a hard body line down the side.

1970 AAR 'Cuda. The foglights protrude past the front valence.


Thats why the foglights protrude past the valence on the prototype.


I agree that the grill does not need to me made out of carbon fiber. If it was painted argent to match the shaker, I think it would look much better. However, I think that the people that built the car fixed it to look like a modern AAR with a shaker.

There are tuners working on Plymouth 'Cuda bodyparts and badging for the new Challenger.

HXC is one of them.

You can bet that the aftermarket will come up with Firebird parts for the next Camaro too.
