Although the 2015 Dodge Charger is largely unchanged mechanically, it gets a whole new look.
SXT V6 models equipped with Rallye Appearance Group gets a power bump to 300 hp and 264 lb-ft of torque due to a cold air intake, an upgraded exhaust and a tweaked ECU. Aside from that, the changes are mostly cosmetic.

- Kjhkjlhkjhkljh kljhjkhjklhkjh ""The 10L1000 transmissions are built by GM and vetted by Allison"" .. ewww for tranny? your not losing anything killing the brandingThe term "10L1000" refers to the Allison 10L1000 10-speed automatic transmission, used in 2020 and newer heavy-duty GM Silverado and Sierra trucks with the Duramax 6.6L diesel engine. It is a heavily modified version of a jointly developed Ford/GM 10-speed platform, engineered by Ford with Allison branding and designed to handle increased torque and offer better fuel economy compared to its predecessor, the 6-speed Allison 1000.
- Wantahertzdonut Among my parent's friends (all engineer/teacher couples), they were friends with one couple that stood out because they were legitimately cool people. They had a 900 and I'll never forget getting a ride back from dinner on hilly roads in western NY in 1989. Everyone else had some rusty penalty box of a car, but that Saab proved to me then there's more to life than practical cars.

I'm generally of the opinion that turning down the looks actually should draw in new customers. A softer face with a more trendy look may actually help sell it to those who want a fast car without the 'boy racer' gimmicky-ness of the outgoing looks. The original reeked of midlife crisis buyers seeking to find their youth. This car looks beautiful modern in a way that makes me want to test drive it and being 30 is pretty much their target demographic. Spot on Dodge...Spot on.
If I squint really hard I think I can see some '68 in that front end. http://tinyurl.com/k5vvfk8
