New Dodge Charger FC

[Paul]

I like how the contours on the side of the car look just like the production vehicle, it's a start when you can partially make out the make and model without decals.

Looks like they have moved the windshield back a tad to get the hat out in front of said windshield that seems to be the cause of all the body splitting? Body side lines are a help to ID but still looks like a jellybean dumptruck...lol

Ugly beyond words.

Funny. looks like a 'stang to me with those side panels... LMAO

Makes the name Funny Car take a whole new level.

All of the body styles are looking more & more like wedges with a spoiler.

O K. My question is why are they calling it a Charger? Isn't the Challenger the "Race Car" ? I thought a Charger was a cop car more door sedan family truckster style of Fiat...

Everyone needs to stop complaining about how the big show FCs look. You cannot have 320mph race cars with bodies that are stock appearing. As far as the current crop goes, I like the Charger that Hagen was testing, I think it looks better with the side body lines and the shorter roofline. JMO

Put that car on the track and I will buy a new Charger next year. I bought my current 2011 Charger because of their NHRA involvement and will continue to do so (and I love the car).

I thought I heard that the new body was "supposed" to be based the new Dodge Dart. Hence the wait until next year for the new bodies for Dodge F/C's.

 

[TooTall999]

The scallops on the side are a Charger feature, not on the Dart.

 

[turbo ken]

Gotcha David, I haven't seen the Dart, but I thought I heard the new body was a Dart. Is Dodge changing the Charger any?

 

[Nunz]

The Dart, which is a little 4-door, makes a great 2 door PS car. I think it would make for a cool FC body, better than the Charger. Here's what I think would be a badass FC, the Pro Mod version is coming and that's pretty wild looking:

Too bad Corvette FC bodies have a rather "fiery" history.

 

[stitcherbob]

There's about as much Dodge Charger in that body as there was Buick in Kenny Bernstein's Batmobile...

Yup, I'ld say the Challenger is the race car...watch this:

 

[robslob]

The best thing is: They race on a drag strip, with safety equipment. None of this street outlaws B.S.
Thanks Pappy Zappy...

The new 2015 Dodge Charger....

Along with the Challenger, Dodge will also be producing a HellCat Charger next year, supercharged, 707HP, most powerful sedan on the market.

Put that car on the track and I will buy a new Charger next year. I bought my current 2011 Charger because of their NHRA involvement and will continue to do so (and I love the car).

My wife has a 2013 Charger R/T, it is an awesome car, love it too.

 

[my friends call me Zappy]

A HellCat Charger you say??? with the same 707hp supercharged. Oh what a 4-dr super sleeper that will be....... I want one!!!

 

[Nunz]

They should put that motor in a 2 door version of the Dart, now THAT would be a Hellcat...
