At some point in time I read that the Cuda could be the future replacement for the Challenger but I am not certain this would be a fact. A new Cuda under the Dodge brand would be a good idea imo. Maybe even have an SRT Cuda with fierce horsepower offered as the highest level version of the Challenger.....now I'm dreaming It's all Mopar

The first renderings: Mustang front/ Trans Am taillights.
The last pic looks too Camaro - the nose.

I love the interior on mine thank you very much.

Every one of those concept cars give me goosebumps. The last one is my fav though.

The 392 is a pretty sick car, I wouldn't mind having one.

Dodge builds a great looking car.... Just time to build a better car. That charger

Other than their trucks (which I believe are still built by Mercedes). Their trucks are great quality and very dependable. It would be awesome if they could figure it out with the cars.
This post has fail written all over it....

Another post full of fail and incorrect information.....

Hey lol.

I ran nothing but dodges until they replaced the 5.9 cummins. There new diesels look like a really sad puppy and the new 6.7 is a uber fail. Trannys sucked too!

Bought a LMM and became a Chevy convert for life!!!

I remember that, and that's not even funny. That is a monstrosity of immeasurable proportions.

Dang the front end on that kit looks like a mustang!

My sister n laws boyfriend let/made me (not big on driving other people's cars) drive his 2011 srt8.

I'm gonna admit I really like the exterior styling. Just to be mortified by the interior of this car. I felt like I was sitting in any other dodge sedan on the market. Roomy but awkward.

Handling....toooooo much body roll! This thing FELT heavy and BIG. Ride quality was very nice in a straight line.

Power......well with 470hp under the hood I expected MORE of a punch. Don't get me wrong his car will move but his being an auto and mine being a stick made his transitional power seem weaker.

I have yet to run him though. I took him for a ride in mine a few days ago and scared the living tar out of him. He couldn't believe how much more "RAW"(his words) the power in my car was.


Please God let gm reveal the chevelle or some similar concept in the future.

Just my thoughts and experience.

Been thinking hard about trading my SS in on a 392 auto car. I haven't had a chance to drive one yet but I will say that sitting in this car the interior is much better than the SS, seats are better, layout is better, more options such as navigation, 900-watt stereo, dragstrip simulator timer. It just looks and feels better overall.
