...a Charger.

This post pleases me.

The Challenger was pretty exciting, but this is even more exciting to me because there aren't many 4 doors sedans that make that kind of insane power.

Interesting... Thing will no doubt be a monster.

Not sure how I feel about the front end though. I get that they're trying to 'allow maximum airflow for cooling' ... but it seems like the designer's solution was [Okay well let's just make a freaking huge hole on the front, and accent it with headlights that have a unibrow.]

i'd take this over the eau rogue all day long.

You may be missing the idea. It's a 4 door "family" sedan. That has a 707hp supercharged V8 crammed into it. AND. AND it goes 204mph. It could be one of Jesda's beloved Saab 900s and I would still drive the doors off of it.

I don't think it's too much to ask that it be good looking as well as awesomely functional.

I think what he was trying to say that it's f*** ugly and you know it. I'd probably go for a romp in the sack with a truck-faced woman with an awesome body, but I wouldn't always want to show it off after a while. Looks do count...

Personally I think it looks damn good. Especially from the rear, but I have no issue with the front fascia either.

looks are subjective. i personally think it looks great.

I would just like to have the money that will be required to pay the insurance on it every year.

We talking about the truck faced woman?

there are a few things that influence insurance rates, your driver record is #1, replacement value of the car is #2. My Jaguar XF Supercharged only cost about $40 more a month to insure than the 2013 M37x that replaced it. Surprisingly a 1999-2001 Porsche 996 non-turbo is almost as much to insure as my M!

I'm putting a Hellcat in my Subaru BRZ.. I'll go through a set of rear tires every week

That SRT viper style spoiler is so damn perfect.

I know, I know. I'm coming out of the gate swinging at the aesthetics. But if you're going to boast having the fastest sedan on the planet, at least make it look sexy. The CTS-V, for example, makes it look like a beaten inbred between a Charger and a 1st-gen Dart.
The tail end isn't too hateful.. just the face... lots of things about it make me want to punch it.

This is my opinion mostly. It's a great win for the muscle guys. I think it's cool. But I'd rather have something that looks a bit more toward the luxury sport side of things. I've never been a muscle kind of guy though, and they make things like the M3/M5 for guys like me.

It's nice to see things like this in the wake of all the environment-centric designs as of late. Cars can still be fun things rather than solely practical tools of transportation.
