    If it's ANYTHING like the 3 photos/pictures Burps posted I  sure am glad there making a Cuda not Challenger.

    Don't want my cars name badge on something that ugly. I feel for you Cuda guys if that mess gets produced.  :ack: :-\

    If the Cuda gets brought back, it will HAVE to be a 2 door.  There is no way they could make a 4 door pony car.  i hope

    1. Plymouth is no more
    2. Chrysler Cuda just doesn't sound right
    3. Let the name live in the glorious past, don't revive it (ala Charger). :nono:

    The problem with D-C is not that the guys calling the shots aren't car guys - they are, but they're German car guys. They don't understand the emotional connection Americans have to musclecar names like Charger and Cuda, and they rely on generic marketing research. Then they get defensive when criticized about it.

    One can only hope the overwhelmingly negative reaction they got from the '06 Charger makes an impression. If that car sells well, they'll feel vindicated, and we may see a four door Cuda.  :'(

    It pains me to say that I hope that a Hemi-powered RWD Mopar doesn't sell.

    You can blame all of this on the poor sales of the new GTO!  the DC guys have point-blank said that they will not make a two-door pony/mid-size car because sales are so flat in that segment of the market. GM has scrapped plans for their new 2-door RWD platform in favor of dumping more money into the Stupid Useless Vehicle platforms. Also note the demise of the F-body as a sign that the 2-door market is very poor. Ford had to basically build the '67 Mustang all over again to get sales back on track. The only two-doors that sell are the import sports cars. Note that trucks don't even have two doors anymore.

    What's funny is that both BMW and Mercedes offer smoking two-door variants of their smaller cars!
