I actually like the 5th gen quite a bit.

I’m weird like that.

72 Charger is my favourite. Strikes a nice balance between the two in my opinion.

Definitely love the fastback. Didn’t these have fold-down rear seats that made a big flat cargo area under the rear window?

I also have a thing for Marlins, especially the final-year model on the bigger platform (Ambassador?).

Especially for the gauge cluster.

I very much have a thing for the Chrysler turbo cars of the ‘80’s, but if someone made me choose between a second gen or the fifth gen, I would choose the second.

I won’t say I like it more... but god damn I do like it just as much. I grew up with a teacher who had one of these, a ‘66.

In a quest to be different than everyone else I would actually go for a 3rd gen. I always found these very pretty.

I don’t think they are ugly, but they’re definitely towards the bottom of my favorite generation of Charger list.

No, I’m on board with that. To me the iconic charger was always a hidey-light coke bottle with a long sweep to the roof.

I’m not quite ready to say I like them better than the 2nd gen but I like them more than I used to. I happened to catch a Hemi one going across the block on a recent auction and it looked really good.

I’m not ready to say I like the 1st gen MORE than the 2nd gen, but I do love them. I have always felt that the first gen is wildly under-appreciated! They’re gawgeous!

According to Wikipedia the second gens are actually a couple inches longer.

Found this in the parking lot at work. The Torchbug was with me, and wanted to pose, too.
