Believe me I've tried warming up to the Charger but the front end just screws the whole car up. They've got to do something with it because it's just butt ugly. It does look better in some colors but then I see the front end again and I'm just turned off completely. Why didn't they build the '99 concept. Now that was a beautiful car worthy of the Charger nameplate.
As far as dealerships go and the salesmen working there you'll find that you are better informed about their products than 9 out of 10 of those salesmen. When I first took a picture of the Challenger to my dealer they thought it was of an original and said it was a cool old car! When I explained this was a new concept vehicle from Dodge they looked at me like I was nuts and said it wouldn't be built.

I think the front of that concept is pretty ugly. Very nice back....although kinda reminds me of the old Acura NSX's ...but we wont talk about that here.

The wind tunnel test where very poor, they could hardly get any downdraft on the front end of it. You have to remember the car was built on a modified LH chassis. If it was built with a proper chassis, then things might have worked out or could have been worked out. I think they would have worked on it more, an could have also produced it. But with the merger taking place at the time, everything was put on hold and eventually it was killed.

I agree that is ugly... Looks like a vette from the front door up on the side and a NsX at the same time.
