Is the Cuda' dead?
 

Since they sold the concept is the cuda dead? I just dont think it will go anywhere after being sold at the B J auction which is too bad since it was a good looking car.
Also there is no plymouth anymore so how could they put it under chrysler? Just doesnt seem right. Also I can imagine 30-50 years from now that concept selling for big big bucks!

There could still be a limited production 'Cuda in the future.

The concept 'Cuda that was sold was not a Dodge concept car. It was built by Metalcrafters for a private customer based on a 4" shortened Charger frame.

The Challenger and Cuda are so closely related, you could always do your own custom Cuda. I know it's not the same as buying a factory one, but I think it'd be cool to see a Challenger is the style of a Cuda AAR.:D

Again, why not "Plymouth 'Cuda" sold at select authorized "Dodge and Chrysler Dealers". Easy enough. Though, I think they're missing the boat to some failed logic of "brand dilution".

Dodge - Sport/Utility minded
Plymouth - Value/Family minded ('Cuda the one exception)
Chrysler - Luxury.

I think there's enough distinction to warrant the different brands.

AND again, why follow suit from a company that bought a profitable brand, ran it into the ground and sold it like an unwanted orphan.

Cerberus, bring back the the third member Plymouth under the Pentastar emblem.

RE: Is the Cuda' dead?
 

I think the Challenger has to be VERY successful for Cerberus to consider doing a Chrysler 'Cuda.
I also think you won't see Plymouth come back from the ranks of the deceased unless Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep becomes enormously profitable ...... and even then, I think it's pushing the limits of anyone hopes or expectations to the edge. Not sure what the legalities are with the defunct company's name.....

p.s. if those Charger R/T's that Doug made were put into production I'd jump on one of those, but that is a dream!
That is what the new Charger should have been

RE: Is the Cuda' dead?
 

Folks seem to keep forgetting that the Challenger originated in the Chrysler's Pacifica Studios. It was an in-house effort intended to "test the waters", so to speak, for the possibility of customer interest/support in resurrecting the Challenger.

The 'Cuda was a private company's effort in creating something unique. It was not sponsored, encouraged or espoused by Chrysler LLC, and never intended for production runs. It was a "one of a kind" project car - made from a Charger chassis. Hell, the interior was identical to the Chargers'.
Chip Foose could have made a MUCH better modern take on the 'Cuda if he collaborated with Doug Schramm and they actually executed those ideas.

there will be no cuda end of thread

RE: Is the Cuda' dead?
 

I'm not seeing anything for a one-off of a Cuda anything in the news lately eithe.. so the idea must be circulating somewhere for someone to come up with something.
