Apparently the Dodge Charger does need a WS6 hood (according to Mergio anyway...)

90s GM Riiight.

More like Dodge Dart Demon circa 1970s Dodge.

Nope, there’s been talk of a Giulia based successor but nothing yet. Dodge will probably just put different hoods, wheels, and graphics for like 3 more years.

Then this is boring, and I’m unimpressed.

Nah, the shape is VERY 98-02 WS6. It comes way too far forward to be emulating the old Demon.

I can agree on this

And here I was interested to see how those nostrils would look on the Charger’s face!

All I’m saying is Dodge has a rich history of dual hood scoops, particularly on the GTX, Demon, and Superbee. It’s not like the WS6 invented them. If anything the “pig nose” made them worse.

Just now. Your handle reminds me of a guy named Brandon in CT I bought an AWD protege off of a while back. What are the odds?

Would you hate it more or less if we just referred to it as a Grand Am hood rather than a WS6 hood?

The Ram Air Grand Am is the worst car ever IMO.

Mopar has a rich history of tack on hood scoops. The ones on the new Demon are way more like 60's GM in the way they’re integrated into the hood and their location to the front edge.

Of course they aren’t going to be like ones of vintage mopars, there is aerodynamics to consider now. All I am saying is that dual scoops isn’t exclusive to one brand.

I wasn’t debating the origins of nostril type scoops that gently rise up from the hood. All I’m really saying is that the ones on the new Challenger are closer in style to muscle era GM than Mopar. Which is odd since they’ve already very closely replicated the original hoods from the 70s.
