my buddy who moved to Philly recently got an SRT version...he said he likes it.. but i agree that some things on it were just dumbof them to do....like the vinyl carbon stickers on the hood...it doesnt even look real...they are also SOOOOOO HEAVY...

How come every person I've ever met in my life with an Integra is an ignorant piece of shit who thinks their chick car is fast?????

That cuda looks just like a challenger,just with a different grill,the little vents on the side,and a diff hood. Theres a video of the real cuda,that has the old school "snorkle" in the middle of the hood on youtube somewhere.

And if you are talking about the charger concept where they made it a "2 door",thats not happening. I believe it was a photoshop,a damn good one,but a photoshop. Chrysler is just going to milk the challenger chassis until its dry as shit.

I like it. I am a tech at a Dodge dealer. It has a decent amount of power. It's not a super car, but it's fun to drive. Handles well actually, for it's size.

I would take one over a vehicle in the same price range from the other American makers.

It turns heads. Well for now it does.

You should probably know the difference between gross weight and curb weight before you come in here spouting bullshit.
