From this first protoype in 2001...(first depicted on www.car-truck.com website as the latter model derived from the 99 concept car).



Noticed the side doors and scoops?

58Hawk wonderful replica.... This man is totally awesome.

Now inherting the Airflite frontal facia.

So, is THIS the Charger? Finally? Are those suicides on the rear. And, sorry to say, if all you get is some pretty stuff, with the only REAL (if ya wanna call it that) performance mod (and it most likey will just make up for those blinging wheels) being shift programming, I'm out. I do like the platform, but another freaking Nascar marketing tie-in is NOT what the world needs.

Another Rumble Bee, meh.

Finally! I have been dreaming about this for a while and the time has finally come. I have always wanted a '69 Daytona($$$) but since that won't be happening any time soon, one of these babies will do plenty. Here is the problem, I just bought my SRT-4 and I have no money, so what I'm going to do is start a fund where you can send me some money so I can buy myself a 2006 Daytona, and I'll give each person that donates a ride in it.

Hemidakota, keep us informed on any information about the Daytona you get (Like always).

This doesn't mean we have to be at the Daytona 500 race to order one does it?
And how bout superchargerin' that hemi or something to separate it more from the Charger. That is just something that I would like.That would make it a missle.

[hemidakota]

Why, when you get the bigger motor for the SRT version.

This is a limited edition as described by 58Hawk.

The only changes I can see is the tweaking of the SRT version front and rear. Maybe add some side body moulding.

Front end looks like the new Acura TL. I won't believe anything until I see the real deal.

[hemidakota]

The front is derived from the Airflite concept. A.K.A LX short platform.

Very good. I had to laugh on seeing the frontal facia on NASCAR that resembled one car and looks like another one. LOL

Under that white paint is the same car. I hope that the Dayton Charger does not suck big eggs like this mistake.
