Powerful.
Heavy. Sounds like sex. I know the Challenger SRT-8 got a well-done revamp for '11, if the Charger got the same one, then that must be a beast of a car. |

The interior on the current gen's is enough to put me off completely.

It's not that bad for an modern american muscle car.

We all have different tastes. I just don't like an interior that resembles a truck's.
Then again I've never been a fan of any Dodge interior pre-2011 model revamp.

the new one is ridiculously fast in a straight line with the 465hp 6.4L (underrated)
i am the wrong color to drive one though and good luck turning |

I think the SR/T is respectable, the R/T as well.
I test drove these back in 2008 before I picked up my G8. I think they're great cars. It's tough to dislike that American V8 sound (or the Australian/Mexican-American sound I had in the G8). Be prepared to buy gas, which I'm sure you realize. It will make the 335 seem like a sipper... I averaged around 18mpg with my G8's 6.0L when driving normal - about 9mpg when driving a little more spirited, so I'd assume the larger Hemi would behave the similarly. Go for it! |

I miss my Jeep SRT8 so bad. It would chirp all four tires in first, in second, then as I merged it would downshift from fourth to third and chirp the again. When I didn't speed I got decent MPGs too. I killed so many Mustangs and Camaros. People on the freeway would pull up to me and thumbs up or want to race.
It would carry me the wife and my parents to the snow with no problems. |

I wonder if it got the same suspension treatment as the Challenger. If it did, it should be slightly better in corners, but still a whale.

Despite the new one's controversial looks, it's going to be a fast son of a bitch. 6.4L HEMI V8 with 465 hp (that's it?) and can go from 0-60 in the 4 second range, do a 1/4mile sprint in about 12 seconds, and it won't stop till it reaches 175 mph. Not bad seeing as how it's only coming with a 5-speed auto. Basically it's going to be a badass car.

Chargers are straight line beast, and the engine note is pretty aggressive. You know when one is around.
I just wish they weren't police cars around where I live, that takes away somewhat from the cool factor.
