I am in love

Neshi · Jan 17, 2008, 02:28 PM

I saw the new car thread of Zaim, and my thoughts went straight to this baby.
It's one of those car's I wanna have when i got my own place and some cash.

I really like what they are doing with the new car's the big companies are bringing out lately. The feel and style of the old car, but still cutting edge and tempting (my thought go to the mustang, this charger, the camaro concept)

BlueMak · Jan 17, 2008, 02:34 PM

Don't take this the wrong way, but it looks to me like it has some baby fat.

**MIG-31** · Jan 17, 2008, 02:38 PM

IMO i hope the performance lives up to it's looks....

That is a beautiful looking car, whilst having a aggressive look to it.But a maybe add a couple of inch's to the wheels then that would be sweet.

i see those around town all the time, some of the cops are even getting them for cruisers now.

they dont have the appeal to me that the old chargers do. the plain chargers actually get confused quite often for a Magnum.

Neshi · Jan 17, 2008, 03:44 PM

well, dark lord, you have a point there. The charger changed quite alot in comparison to the old one.
Generally I like the old cars better then the new ones. but there are some cars that are inspired on an old car, don't look the same, but which still can capture the spirit of the old one. Ah, it's hard to explain.
just take a look here

Lowfat · Jan 17, 2008, 03:45 PM

I do not like. The only SRT i like is the Jeep SRT. That thing is hawt.

Neshi · Jan 17, 2008, 03:58 PM

really? i really don't like that one...
just to name a few cars i really really really like..
this charger and the old one, from 1968 and the new concept camaro, and the 1968 camaro.

Dark Lord · Jan 17, 2008, 04:00 PM

oh i dont know about that... id like to get my hands on an SRT-10 Viper.

CDsDontBurn · Jan 17, 2008, 04:18 PM

For me Bugatti Veyron or Koenigsegg CCXR!

**MIG-31** · Jan 17, 2008, 04:40 PM

My all time favourites are..

A)Maclaren F1 (Still a dream car)

B)Bugatti EB110 (Bugatti Veyron beats this in performance) but i still love the looks of this car.

C)Ferrari F10

Oh and thanks CD'S

BlueMak · Jan 17, 2008, 05:16 PM

I would love to see this car in silver or orange colour.

**dj_stick** · Jan 17, 2008, 07:02 PM

wow i was mistaken
when i read the thread title and the pop-up summary i thought you were in love with zaim

but looks like a sweet car

Falstaff · Jan 17, 2008, 11:21 PM

very nice....
hard to keep this one fed all the time..
I saw one here in Suffolk for 19 thousand pounds....
too rich for my blood, I mean for what you get.
but I bet its a hoot to drive..
I like my Audi A4 at the moment..LOL

Sandok · Jan 18, 2008, 12:49 AM

Too brash in the styling department for me... If I had to stick with a cheapish fourdoor saloon, I'd go with Vauxhall VXR8

And if had the money, BMW M5 (or M3 sedan), Audi RS4, etc.

SFOSOK · Jan 18, 2008, 01:12 AM

18 yr old kid at my work has one. Its surprisingly a really good passenger car with lots of room in the back.

will these do?

Neshi · Jan 18, 2008, 01:36 PM

nice pics CD's! it just keeps looking better and better to me

CDsDontBurn · Jan 18, 2008, 01:46 PM

i wouldn't mind having one of these myself either! and they're not as expensive as i thought they would be either!

one downside would be the fuel consumption, if fuel consumption is an issue. a 19ga. tank and it would only get 14/20 on paper, so realistically, it's more like 9/15.

the other downside, to me at least, is that it only comes with an AT.

Dark Lord · Jan 18, 2008, 02:03 PM

that thing sucks all the way around then.

i would have expected much better in the mpg. hell, the new corvettes are doing 30mpg highway.

Neshi · Jan 19, 2008, 01:40 PM

as if the fuel prices are such a big a deal in america.. try fill up your tank in europe..

but indeed, mpg is a bit of a downside. But fun is expensive..

Sandok · Jan 20, 2008, 01:42 AM

A bit of a downside? If you're in Europe, then that's appaling!!! Other four-door saloons in Europe with that kind of power (and a much better gearbox + chassis) get double the MPG

I dunno with my 350Z which gets typical MPG, I see the cash flowing (out of my pockets). Tis painful

glad you like it

cozumel · Jan 20, 2008, 12:47 PM

I don't really like it. The front 'face' looks like it is getting angry and starting to frown. How dare it bare it's teeth in that manner. I much prefer happy cars.

DJ BIG T · Jan 20, 2008, 01:04 PM

very nice car,
