Two Door Charger
By Rob Einaudi
Editor-in-Chief
I still don’t get why Dodge never built a two door Charger based on the LX platform. It seemed like a total no brainer. Heck, they could have done a nice low buck, two door Super Bee, too. Instead we had to wait around five years for the Challenger, which is cool and all, but like the last Challenger, it’s a bit late to the party. Is there much hope for the LX platform at this point, with Cerberus behind the wheel and gas prices going through the roof? Who knows. But I like this 2010 Charger design study by Michael Leonhard. It’s nice to dream… More pics over at Motor Authority.

I like this: you can see it’s a Charger straight away, but it doesn’t look like an ugly square version of the classic, like most American muscle cars do these days.

As a concept I love it. The only thing I would alter is to do what the original Charger designer did and give it two fuel caps on the back.

It’s a nice idea, but probably nothing more. Chrysler’s financial picture is not very strong at this point and a project like this would take back-seat to bringing smaller, more fuel efficient cars to market. However, a ‘quick-fix’ solution would be Chrysler’s efforts to partner with another manufacturer (Nissan) to produce those kinds of vehicles on an accelerated schedule and therefore begin to realize a financial profit. Should that happen, then there might be room to fantacize the kinds of cars that appeal to enthusiasts, like Vipers and two-door Chargers. I would be extremely interested in – and strongly consider buying – a Charger like this. The car could be based on the new Challenger platform to cut manufacturing costs, but the market may not support two near identical cars. The Charger would then have to be a larger vehicle, about the size of the current car, with full four-seat capacity. And with gas prices marching ever-upward, Chrysler would have to hope that there would be enough buyers who could afford to fill the tank of such a vehicle to justify its production. Like you said in the paragraph accompanying this article, “…it’s nice to dream”.
