Thats all a lot of people see them as, a HB grand am. they could have made that car look awesome, but they really failed on that. I'm also disappointed with the look of the new chargers. Of the 3 major companies, ford is the only 1 that didn't bring back an old discontinued model and made their current model look like the old school one.




Ford got the look right, GTO wasn't going for retro, Charger wasn't going for retro, Challenger and Camaro will be going for retro, next GTO will be a little of both. Ford is the only one that hasn't got the most important thing right (imo) from the factory, for a muscle car...the HP and Torque numbers. They force the aftermarket to do that for them, just so they can bring themselves up to the others.

Ford could have made the Mustang GT a torque monster that really *scraims* when you punch it, but they blew it.
