Can't argue with that. Would've made a lot more sense just to give it a new name.

i think the str8 charger is a great looking car!! Whats wrong with it? For being a 4-door 2 ton family car i would say it holds it own.

You basically summed up what was wrong with it.

"4-door 2 ton family car" It's just not the Charger we once loved, the two door straight muscle car. But I guess just because I don't like it doesn't mean you shouldn't. And I do have to admit, they still look pretty good.

It's a fact, 4 door sports car is what people want. RWD four door cars. In some cases, awd.

It's the hottest selling market right now.

Ford will be in there soon too.

I think it's better than what Chevy did. make the impala with fwd.

Like I said, everyone's following Chrysler/Dodge.

Good kill, sounds like he launched poorly. How much hp do you pick up w/ those mods on an LS-1?

I'll be curious if you run another one or go from a roll to see what happens...

I'd say this:
had 4 - 5 lenghts on him and he began to pull but stayed abour 2 1/2/ to 3 lenght back by 100 and then I shut her down after anoth 4 seconds of no pull by him.
probably pretty even with an edge to the camaro; similar trap speeds with a slight cd edge to the camaro and a sizable weight advantage.
