Hum a 300 with a different frontend...I am not impressed. 30feet doors and 2" windows is not my style. I do not like the styling of the 300/magnum. Goofy looking to me.

I like the look of it, basically a Magnum sedan. The only problem I have with it is I'm old school. Chargers, up to this point, never had 4 doors. Make that puppy a 2 door and I think it'll look soooo much better.
I like the general direction that Dodge is going. The 300 looks freaking awsome, Magnum with the Hemi...yeah, rear wheel drive and a honking V-8.

I dont like it, too stratus looking from the side and back.

incidently I think it was road and track new issue that has a small picture of the front of the REAL charger, it was slightly disguised , but It looked a lot different than that drawing that C&D did and IMO it looked a lot better.

I think its great that they are making it though. competition never hurts

Deffienently got to change the tailights to something, smaller. Well, while I'm at it, they should just redo the entire rearend till it dosen't remind me of all their other cars.

I've been a long time Chrysler fan but this car leaves me flat...the concept Charger they showed back in 99 was an awesome, racy-looking design...even tho it was a 4dr sedan it still had the look, roofline and body touches of the 68-70 musclecar...I'm lukewarm over the new magnum, not really crazy over the new 300 (I liked the 300M much better)...these new cars have great hardware but the style is not my bag...I'm obviously in the minority here tho cuz these things are flying out of showroom everywhere!

I saw the 99 concept at the San Francisco Int'l Auto Show, back in 98. If I recall, it runs on CNG.
