I sure hope not...I'm afraid to even see what it'll look like after seeing that new dart...
![]() I mean the new car may be nice, but it should've been called something else (or given it's own name), instead of insulting the legendary Dart name...my .02

At this point, I care more about chrysler producing a V8 RWD mid price coupe that can be made available for Pro Stock and Super Stock GT. I disagree with giving the Barracuda name to a newer styled vehicle when it will probably not resemble any of the originals, but its forward thinking to allow the historic names live on in a new car while also recognizing that the market demands something different from the past. At least this new car will be equipped with a V8. Maybe at the very least they can keep some of the original lines.

And the Cuda/Baracuda cars were Plymouths.... And they/Obama and the Democrats killed that marquis.
So how genuine/authentic can that be? Stick the the Challenger, and give it convertible on a lighter RWD platform. And by the way, I will take one of the new SuperCharged Drag Paks based on that platform. Then the Mustangs would finally have unwind all of the string to run faster than us. David The New Hemi Guy |

Precisely my first thought. The name "Dodge Barracuda" is incredibly disingenuous to anyone that knows, and, quite likely, the very crowd Chrysler would be going after.

i was informed of the "barracuda" return almost five years ago, they were waiting to put it out so it did not decrease challenger sales, i was also told it will be branded under the chrysler name. it is supposed to be a shorter smaller platform and resemble a retro 68 not a 70, remember this was told to me almost five years ago while daimler was still in controll and im sure things have changed but still nice to see some of what i was told come to pass.
