i hear ya there man!

 

While I like the shaker hood and the front grill isn't bad, I still like the body line of the Challenger better. This 'Cuda has a straight body line while the Challenger
curves up in the rear panel.

As for the wheels, that is still very undecided what they will do there other than make them smaller.

 

yeah..i hope that dodge doesnt put SVT wheels on the cuda...

 

I too tried the question on Dr Z... and received a somewhat canned answer:

The question that I asked:

Now that production of the Challenger has been announced for MY 2008, rumors are flying that there will be a Chrysler Cuda concept car... and that it MAY be produced starting at about the same time as the Challenger. I hope this is true!!! Assuming it looks as good as the artwork of Doug Schramm seen at: http://www.creatingthelie.com/auto.htm I would be VERY interested in the Cuda. I will be buying a Challenger, but have plenty room for another new car!

The reply from DCX marketing rep:

At this time, DaimlerChrysler has not released any information indicating the production of a Chrysler Cuda model. However, with constantly shifting market trends I would hesitate to discount the possibility of new products on the horizon, specifically designed to suit your needs. Please feel free to check back with us as well as your local DaimlerChrysler dealership periodically for future updates

DaimlerChrysler has yet to announce the pricing and product specifications for the 2008 Dodge Challenger. We encourage you to stay in contact with us at Dodge.com and your local Dodge dealership for future updates.



I believe that DCX will use the Cuda name again at some point, might be a nice January surprise...?...

Must be a random roll of the dice computer system with correct multiple choice answers.

 

i also got the "hopeful answer"...

dough schramm is a very talented artist, and used to be a pretty active member of DF...

 

January Auto Show is what I'm waiting for... Maybe there will be 'Spy Shots' of a new Cuda, and everyone will think its an old one thats been customized.... lol

 

well, its no secret that dodge stole the show last year with the challenger...now im wondering if perhaps they arent going to drop another bomb and do it again this year with the cuda...i would have to think that with their remarks, that it has at least been considered...for instance, if you make up a random name and put "dodge" before it and "concept" after it, they will say that it doesnt exist...which means that at least on some level, this car does exist...its all very interesting!

 

Interesting is right. I don't care if this car is called a Dodge Cuda, A Chrysler Cuda, Or a Poop Cuda. If it looks like this...



Then I want one!

 

where are you getting these pictures?
