Hard pass on this ugly turd of a car; it looks like the designers took some things from the 60s, some things from the 70s and some things from the 90s, threw in some concept car schemes, smoked a bowl, and came up with this. This thing has nothing that makes a muscle car great, and everything that makes a muscle car suck. First big issue is the cost. The price projections for this are insane; I can get a much nicer vehicle for the cost EV or ICE; zero chance I would spend the money even if it wasn't ugly....maybe a commuting beater if I got a $200 lease or something; no, probably not. There is zero chance this thing will be a collector of any kind so there is no justification to ever purchase one unless the prices are cut in half. As far as a replacement for the Charger; I guess it works; it's big, heavy, and ugly, which doesn't mater for a fleet vehicle. It will make a decent police cruiser I guess, and it won't be hard to spot it on the side of the road. Of course, I imagine there will be a lot of these sitting on the side of the road so I take that back. It's about as awesome as the jellybean GTO GM tried to do in the 2000s with the Holden Monaro. I would much rather have the Grand Cherokee with the Hurricane engine than this big useless thing. I'm so adverse to it because this isn't just a replacement for the Charger, which I really don't care about. It is a replacement for the Challenger, and this is where it goes completely off the rails. Given my love for the Challenger, I can't stomach this thing; I guess now I know how the people felt when he Mustang II came out. I was pretty young so I really don't remember....lol Even the engine from the Demon couldn't make this vehicle compelling. Would I buy one of these to put in my garage to take out on the weekends? .....I wouldn't even waste the space if someone gave it to me. I never would have thought we would be longing for the days when Fiat controlled the company....sigh! It's a real bummer I had to live through this twice.
