Something is. . . off. I'll have to see it in person. Maybe it's the color. Still looks good from the rear though. Better than ever actually, because it's "real" now.

I think it looks quite good. It would look better if "Challenger" was written in script and placed on the opposite end of the grille, above the SRT logo though.

Justinec101, I think what you're talking about is there is one picture from the side where the green house appears to have an unusually wide black border around it like weather stripping gone awry, at least that was the one picture that made me a little uncomfortable...3/4 profile, from the front and rear is good, just dead on from the side that's what struck me. That's what prompted me to say the pimp tint would make it look better (cover that stuff up in dark tint)

Irregardless (sic), I think it's tight overall.

It's whats under the hood that counts.
Bet the guy who got those pictures made a fair amount of money

Tdub, same games that I have, plus a little more. I should say more like the games that my wife and I have since some belong to her like the Mario Party 8, I guess more for the two of us, and Potter, Order of the Phoenix.

Anyway, that back end still dissappoints me. It seemed so much better before they broke it up the way they did and then put that backup light where they did. Just clashes. It was perfect the way it was on the concept, solid all way way across, not hard to do on the surface, just change it underneath, and the reverse lights under that, next to the license plates. The rest of the car is great, but I'm really going to have to fight on weather to get this car just based on that rear. Granted, it does look closer to the old then the concept, but it looks like they took the old and tried to blend it with the concept. It just clashes to me.

Anyone for the Stanger? Not to keen on this Photochop, but figured I would include it.

And then something that is quite painful for most of us. This hurts me.

Looks good to me but not in silver/gray..

Looks like the lettering on the hood is raised lettering not decals..

You're right about the letters (you can see them in the reflection.

I dunno, I think it looks far worse than the concept. Not liking the back end very much and the slpoe they seem to have on the rear trunk from the side angle. Also, it is way shorter/stubby looking than the concept. Kinda like twins but the ugly twin. I do like the front end though. I really want to like it but......

Maybe I will get used to it. Thoughts?
