^ and for those complaining about the non uni-lense that the concept has, it looks like one large lense, with separate lights under it. And you know SOME aftermarket somebody is going to figure out how to shove led's into the center part so it lights up too.. it Looks good to me
.. now if i could only afford that car. LOL
While the lense is different (to be honest, I like it), I'd rather complain that the car is more slab sided than the concept, doesn't need the JC Whitney Chin Spolier, they moved the marker lights, I liked the exhaust tips and the backup lights from the concept, and oh yeah, fuel door is on the wrong side. Other than that, thumbs up!

Standard-looking LX wheel. No big surprise (although I was expecting a slight redesign. Still, is that the V6 interior, or the SRT interior...

No, but testing a new wheel with frontal and side crash tests, airbag integration, fabric / material durability and color fastness...
Sharing common components is the true essence of platform brand engineering. However, finding the right balance of difference between brands and meeting budget is the trick. With the dropping of the Magnum from the LX lineup, something tells me that the radical sheetmetal departures on the three LX siblings probably cost more that it should have; they're not making as much as they should be. Remember GM cars of the 90s? Different grille and tailights? That's brand engineering done wrong.
So, that being said, I would not be surprised one bit if we were shown a picture of an '09 Challenger interior, and a pic of an '09 Charger interior... and with the exception of the gear shift and some minor trim, they'd be exactly the same.
They can't even have one CAR steering wheel, and one Mini-Van/Truck steering wheel?
They can really only afford to produce ONE type of steering wheel at a time?
Really?
Does the Ford Focus, Ford F-150 and Mustang have the same wheel?
Ohhh, that must be why Ford is in bad financial shape, and Chrylser is doing great....
OR, its the reason Chrysler's interiors continue to be a joke.
