Dodge Viper Vs Corvette
If you are a car fan you know that part of the market is inspecting new models as they enter the showroom. There is just something special about a new automobile : the smell, the look, the price tag! For some 17,000,000 American drivers a new car is in their future, while many others opt for the used car market. Some of the autos on the market today are hot, hot, hot! Let's have a look at many new and future offerings from Dodge.
Thanks in part to new ownership [Daimler Benz acquired the Chrysler Enterprise in 1998] a fresh infusion of great looking Dodge models have hit a showroom near you. Additional models are soon to appear and the makeover that Dodge has been receiving is nothing but strange. These are some of my favorites:
Magnum - who said that a station wagon should resemble a family hauler? The Magnum sure does not. With a frightening grille and a rakish exterior, the Magnum is a true man pleaser while also giving girls a bit extra room in the back to haul stuff. Chuck in a Hemi and the Magnum actually rocks!
Charger - O.K , so the new Charger has four doors. Well, you can not have everything. You can have macho looks, a powerful engine, and a vehicle that is certain to fight against anything that Japan or Germany throws its way. Word has it that DaimlerChrysler is considering a coupe version. Now, would not that be cool!
Caliber - Bye, bye Neon. The Neon served Dodge well, but it isn't in the same caliber as the Caliber. Pun intended. To get introduced in Spring 2006 as a 2007 model, the Caliber will have three engine decisions : 1.8, 2.0, and 2.4 I4s, a continuously available transaxle, and all wheel drive. In addition, 2.0L diesel engines should be available outside of the North American market - why not here? - as DaimlerChrysler sets to introduce the Dodge name into new markets.
Other Dodge vehicles that are getting noticed include the Ram and Dakota pick up trucks, the Durango SUV and the soon to get introduced Dodge Nitro, the division's version of the compact Jeep Freedom . Oh, yeah, who could forget the 510-hp V10 Viper? Can you say, Corvette beater?
One word you can't associate with Dodge any more is the word, "boring." Exciting cars, trucks, and SUVs for a market craving these types of hot automobiles. I suspect the "ram" insignia actually does befit the name.
