That's been known for a while that the 'Cuda as a car name is dead.  Didn't pass the sniff test and they never were able to get the rights away from the All American Racers.

I wonder if there is a srt4 dart in the works?  I miss Mopar representing and smashing the import scene

Chrysler doesn't own the rights to that name?  how did that happen?

There is, they just don't have a transmission that can keep itself together.  From the rumor mill... suppose to be 300+ hp AWD.... they are working on it though.

Yeah, Mopar let the name lapse a decade or so ago, so All American Racers picked it up so they could sell "AAR" and "Cuda/Barracuda" merchandise among other things.

Doesn't look like it's something they've given much thought to: http://www.automobilemag.com/auto_shows/chicago/2014/1402-chicago-2014-ralph-gilles-downplays-rumors-of-srt-barracuda-dart/

Pontiac tried to resurrect the GTO that was a flop.

Forget it a BarraCuda on a dart frame     Another rice burner.

Chrysler needs to improve on the Challenger. Get some ideas from Mr Norm

Beefier fenders better add ons.........Better interior colors.......

Billboards were a Cuda thing. To put them on a Challenger just isn't right IMO

I talked to Ralph last Thursday at the Chicago Auto Show. 

There definitely is a Dart SRT in the works.  Just as there is a SuperCharged Challenger in the works.  But they keep having issues with the bottom ends. 

The next generation of Challenger will be smaller, based off a alfa/fiat platform.

That had everything to do with a coveted name attached to a compromised car with disappointing looks, not the concept.
