blazerdude20 Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 http://jalopnik.com/tag/2010-dodge-charger/?id=5160650 eh, come on, these refreshes are just like what what ford did transitioning from 500 to taurus. its going to need to be fixed again in a year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-150 Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 more proof that MB completely raped Chrysler and left them with nothing in the pipeline. And Cerebus doesn't get that. Even if they start today, it will still be 3-5 years for the new models to hit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Those are totally new cars on a new platform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-150 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Those are totally new cars on a new platform. Oh, I get it. They are just like the Freestar. Entirely new vehicle that looks just like the one it replaced. Good move Chrysler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pioneer Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Those are totally new cars on a new platform. So was the 2006 Explorer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I don't like what I'm seeing in the Charger. THe 300 barely looks different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford-150 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Has there been any testing or spy shots of any of this, or is this just a drug addict asking for more money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickF1011 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Those are totally new cars on a new platform. Wow. That makes the execution even more inexcusable in my eyes then. As others have mentioned: see Freestar and '06 Explorer. Nobody gives a crap if it's all-new if it doesn't look like it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody gives a crap if it's all-new if it doesn't look like it is. Making the headlights wrap around really take away a lot of the 300's unique character Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazerdude20 Posted February 27, 2009 Author Share Posted February 27, 2009 http://jalopnik.com/photogallery/2010dodgedurango/ the durango actually looks good from the side view seriously the 300 and charger are on a new platform? i agree that is totally inexcusable. if it were a truck sure but geez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see visibility (especially toward the rear) being a problem with such a high belt line though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

02MustangGT Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Durango looks ok, a bit bloated as pointed out. The Charger lost it's "4 door coupe" look, other than that, it doesn't look much different from the side than the current one. The 300 looks like a mid cycle refresh. Anyway, for these to be completely new vehicles on a new platform, the hope for Chrysler surviving alone is waining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmy311 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 It makes me think of the Sequoia for whatever reason....I think it looks a bit bloated. exactly my thoughts! ...from the 2nd row back it looks like they combined a sequoia and a dodge journey and slammed it to the ground ...does anyone think it looks awfully low to the ground or maybe it's just the profile of the whole vehicle??? It's a little deceiving no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a little deceiving no? I agree. I think it looks very much like the Sequoia from what I can tell. Which, is not exactly a bad thing...

BORG Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Some positive changes, but very conservative products. I have seen the Cherokee running around in camo and the tail-lights are very different from the previous models, more like the Dodge Journey. Actually, the brands are growing less distinctive now with all the badge engineering. God, both GM and Chrysler have brand issues which they can't sort out, Ford and Lincoln have reconciled their paths quite well now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
