I've read on other blogs where people are saying it looks like a Charger mated with a Mitsubishi Evo. I can see a lot of it.

The swooping character line is just not place correctly. Having it down the center of the front doors is just odd.

Sadly, all Dodge can do is build cars with attitude and lots of power, not much else. Lack of a 6-speed is unacceptable for a 2012 release.

I do, however, like the Challenger racetrack treatment of the tail lights.

Looks mean up front, but it looks cheap all around... almost Hotwheels-like.

they should have moved the swoop forward more. If they ever want to put a side vent, it would easily fit.

still looks awkward though.

That does look better.
Hope this looks better in person. Still glad to see them build a nice old school V-8 car.
