----While Im not surprized at the engine offering, I am surprized by the Charger platform. The Challenger would seem to be a better choice by far, wouldnt it???......Bill S

" Not for Road Use " Who is gonna buy the Charger with 590hp and not be able to use it except on a track ??

lol that is too funny. 590 hp (60 less then the GT500 and 50 less the ZR1) and you can't even drive it on the street? Thats sad

[Bill Pritchard]

Even if the thing made 5900 hp, it's still a 2012 Charger [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img]

They should use the Challenger for this set up
And WHY does it all ways about end up about the GT 500
I am getting sick and tied of hearing about it

I AM DONE WITH IT

About as sick and tired as the rest of us are of your odd hatred of anything wearing a blue oval. By all means, let's be done with it.

Because its the very best America has to offer in modern muscle. So, get used to it

Why in the world would you use a 4 door for an &quot;off road use only&quot; vehicle? That just doesn't make sense.

Well, I don't mind Ford and the Mustang, but hearing about the new GT500 and Boss 302 is getting a little old.

Hopefully GM will turn up the wick on the Camaro (the ZL1), as well as have something competitive with the Boss; a REAL Z/28 like the '67-'69 would work.

Sure you can drive it on the street. See they show someone doingit in the marketing pictures.

The onlything I like about the new Charger is the rear tail light panel at night. They got that right, but that's about it.
