I swear if I wasnt yearning for german precision this car would be on my VERY short list along with the EVO/STI.

It's a Dodge so it'll probably handle like a boat.

You know, I really shouldnt post things like this here anymore. Everyone is so damn predictable. Lets just stick to our EVO/STI, Cayman, Elise comparisons...right?

I am really tempted to get one, even with the same color as the picture, it looks 10X better than the Mustang, yeah even if it handles like a boat, I don't care, I have my S, every time I need a dose of good handling I will drive it. but this Dodge certainly looks great.

I totally agree with you. I'm not even a fan of the orange and I think it looks great. I for one love to be in a car that can hold more than 3 people comfortably and has great acceleration.

Looks decent from the side but it looks HUGE from the front. Massive nose and a tall stance aren't helping there.

Overall, not too bad.

Sorry Onehots2k, does just about nothing for me. Much too literal translation of the old car, IMHO. No original/new thought here. At least the new Camaro looks to be a modern interpretation of old styling themes. If you're that interested, I'm sure there will be big discounts a year or so after its release.
