Dodge Viper Vs Corvette
If you are a car fan you know that part of the market is examining 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 Yank drivers a new automobile is in their future, while many others opt for the used car market. Some of the automobiles on the market today are hot, hot, hot! Let’s have a look at several new and future offerings from Dodge.
Thanks in part to new ownership [Daimler Benz purchased the Chrysler Corporation in 1998] a fresh infusion of great looking Dodge models have hit a showroom near you. Extra 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 doesn’t. With a frightening grille and a rakish exterior, the Magnum is a true man pleaser while also giving women a bit additional room in the back to haul stuff. Throw in a Hemi and the Magnum really rocks!
Charger – Okay, so the new Charger has four doors. Well, you can’t have everything. You can have macho looks, a tough engine, and a vehicle that is certain to struggle with 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. Joke intended. To be introduced in Spring 2006 as a 2007 model, the Caliber will have three engine selections : 1.8, 2.0, and 2.4 I4s, a steadily available transaxle, and all wheel drive. In addition, 2.0L diesel engines will be available outside of the North American market – why not here? – as DaimlerChrysler sets to introduce the Dodge name into new markets.
Other Dodge automobiles that are getting spotted include the Ram and Dakota pick up wagons, the Durango SUV and the soon to get introduced Dodge Nitro, the division’s version of the compact Jeep Freedom . Oh, yup, 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, vans, and SUVs for a market craving these kinds of hot automobiles. I think the “ram” insignia truly does befit the name.
