On a side note though I do like what I see so far!
LOL. Don't worry, unfortunately the front looks a lot more like the current Charger than yours.

I'll wait for actual pictures before telling my opinion.

Looks like they chose the only angle at which it'll look like the original concept

Side view looks a lot less exciting.



And a Photoshop



I quite like the look of this one though. Looks more GTX than Charger . Wheelbase needs a stretch though

If the front is anything like this picture, it's not different enough. I'll pass...

I think the rendering looks half decent but I'd be surprised if the real deal looked like that.

I hope it looks like that but I'm not holding my breath. I think that's a marked improvement over the current one. The front could be a bit more different but the back is really nice!

Agreed.

The back is a huge improvement.

Awful from all angles.

Y'know, just like the current one.

Looks OK from the back, front is still ugly.

Unfortunately, I think that "fish-mouth" grille is a brand identifier that's not going away anytime soon.

I don't know. I remember reading somewhere (I'll try and find the link) that now, since "Ram" is its own brand -- and that the "crosshair" grille is its trademark -- the Dodge-branded vehicles were going to experience some sort of design revolution so that they have their own identity, presumably devoid of gaping crosshair grilles.
