I think GM should give the people who designed the new C7 Vette and the 2010 Camaro the green light to design a sedan. Love the interior and engine of the SS just need a whole new design on the outside. They would have me back as a customer in a heartbeat as i know they can produce great looking vehicles.

A similarly options SRT8 with 470 HP, 4 wheel Brembos (vs front only) and the better uconnect MSRPs only 1k more than the SS. Mind you the cars are totally different in their all out attitude. I am hoping they do an R/T 6.4 of the Charger R/T on the 15 model like they are the Challenger, though I believe the R/T with the 8 speed auto is going to give the SS a run in the 1/4 mile for up to 15 grand less and at least 5 grand last similarly equipped. there is also the scat pack that i believe can be added as a factory option for 15, that can bring the 5.7 up to 420 HP The new and upgraded suspension on the Charger may surprise too, and i believe it will. Can't wait for the 15 rematch!

?

Holden was the ones who designed all three. They were on the team for the 5th gen Camaro, and C7 vette, and wholly the VF (SS).

If only it didn't look so bland. Big part of the reason people I know didn't buy a Charger is no manual transmission.

This SS is a monster, but the styling doesn't stand out.

But I love a good sleeper! And usually the more ridiculous a car is, the more I like it as well. This thing is perfect.

On the one hand people call this car a sleeper, yet it has so much chrome everywhere.

Maybe a sleeper with one eye open.

Good thing chrome doesn't determine whether a car is a performance car or not. My wife's equinox has lots of chrome on it, I certainly don't consider it a performance car. Or a sleeper. Which makes me wonder how big if an engine I can fit into the Equinox Hmmmmmm...
