- crombenevolant, on 10/12/2007, -7/+39Sadly, another cool car that dodge won't build. Instead we get crap like the Nitro....
- snutz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+26I agree. Dodge Razor anyone?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodge_Razor - Boyblundr, on 10/12/2007, -5/+23What's with Dodge lately and their "Let's make everything look like a block, or like something that got hit in the front end really hard" attitude?
Has anyone else noticed that? - GaffleSnipe, on 10/12/2007, -3/+20Kinda resembles the BMW Z4
- Dgen_X, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13RTFA..
"It does, however, use one of DCX's existing engines – the 2.4L four-cylinder World Engine that sends 172 horsepower and 165 ft-lbs. of torque to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox. Dodge officials tell us a number of engines could be used in the Demon, including the 1.8 or 2.0L World Engine."
My guess is that it won't be a gas guzzler...being smaller than the Crossfire (which gets 25+mpg hwy...not great but not a guzzler) and using one of their existing I4 engines......wouldn't exactly call it a "muscle" car - chicbicyclist, on 10/12/2007, -12/+24Too bad it's a Dodge.
- Deval, on 10/12/2007, -6/+16more like a honda s2000 look-a-like
- Shurato, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12Have to agree. I thought it was an S2000 with a bodykit.
- kro762, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12hey that miata is a real manly car !!
and Mazda has helped ford out plenty,
just look at them now!
Chrysler is the only company in the the big three with a decent design - CraigB12, on 10/12/2007, -11/+19Looks like an S2000 but uglier. Dodge should stick to cars that use the HEMI engine becuase it seems like thats the only thing they're good at (that and not making hybrid cars is also something they're known for).
- Tenroh, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10 You mean to tell me this: http://viper.dragtimes.com/gallery.html doesn't look cool?
- macfanboi, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8S2000 and Z350 love child?
- endgame, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7I have a 2006 Dodge Charger & it's by FAR the best vehicle I have EVER owned I LOVE IT.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Screw the Razor and the Demon. I still want a Tomahawk.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodge_Tomahawk - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7It's an S2000 without the sweet redline
- JeyNyce, on 10/12/2007, -5/+10Is it me or does it looks EVIL?
- stoneg64, on 10/12/2007, -5/+10Rather then I evil, I think it just looks ugly. I hate that Dodge grill on a little car like that.
- washcapsfan37, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5They did it because, like many other car manufacturers, the front end/grill is their trademark look. It's how you know it's a Dodge.
I'll admit though, it may not be the best look here. I would've gone with a slimmer grill and maybe a cowl induction. - DigiRaven, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8I like it. Cool design. Daimler has done wonders to dodge since their first cars started rolling off the line in 2005. So much better design and handling comparing to dodges of yesteryear's
- ehosch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4yo people I have a charger R/T and its a beautiful car, it gets looks out the ass. Not all people want a crapy camry
- Cr0z, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7What a pity it's so damn ugly.
- superstewy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Am I the only person who likes the Dodge grill? Maybe it's just because I bought a Caliber. I LOVE IT.
I'm not saying I'd buy that concept car, but it is pretty cool. Personally I think Dodge has done a great job with their new lineup, the Charge, Caliber, Nitro, etc. Like someone else said above, not everyone wants to drive a Honda Civic so give the automatic bashing of every "American" made car a rest. Or should we all just start to argue that Daimler Chrysler is actually a German car company. - tizz66, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8Can it go round corners though?
- jcaino, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5it's called creating (re-imaging) a brand
- Quix, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6Combine 1 cup Honda S2000 front, 1 cup Audi TT tail, 1 cup BMW Z4 side, and a dash of 350Z. Mix thoroughly, then half bake. Garnish with a big, ugly Dodge grille. Serve cold.
Bon appetite!
(Where's my syrup of ipecac? And why can't my countrymen design a decent looking automobile???) - wrenchone, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5It looks like a Viper rear-ended a S-2000 and just kept right on going through the car.
I like it. - LogicBomB, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6Rather than coming out with more uselessly fast novelty cars, why don't car companies start trying to release the best, innexpensive car they can? Seriously, the market is in desperate need for small, innexpensive city-runners.
Nothing luxurious or fast or shiney but it needs to go from driveway to grocery store in under $5-7k. - MacParrot, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5I don't think it looks like the S2000, more like a mini-viper. Blast them all you want, but Dodge has had some hits lately (Charger, Calibre, Nitro) and even their mini-vans are still very popular. As far as the front end goes, that's the look they've put on a lot of their cars lately. The new Stratus for example.
You don't HAVE to like or buy it, but at least they're taking some chances and introducing some interesting concepts. The new Challanger for example is one I'd love to have in my driveway. Would I buy a Demon? Depends on how much head and leg room it has. I'm very tall (6'6") which puts most of the smaller cars out of reach for me. - viperssxt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3hey all u ppl u said they are not going to make this well do any of u remember the Plymouth prowler every said there was no way they whould ever build it and they did.
- antoniojvr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Anyone remember the Copperhead? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:DodgeCopperhead.jpg
- ehosch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3same here, I have a black r/t, best car on the road
- super_spyder, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3my fav dodge noshow was the dodge slingshot, too bat it will never see the light of day...
http://www.seriouswheels.com/cars/top-2004-Dodge-Sling-Shot-Concept.htm - Number23, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4The Interceptor is EXACTLY the sort of car detriot should be building, instead if imitation Accords and Camrys (Camries?).
- noreturn, on 10/12/2007, -8/+11They probably give up on these concepts once they realize that their traditional formula of huge engine and crap handling doesn't apply to roadsters.
- viperssxt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3it looks like a pissed off honda s200 it looks great
- ehosch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2nope and never want to, my 340 horsepower beast with chrome trim and nav system, and killer spoiler are good for me
- UrbanVoyeur, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Why isn't his car electric or at least hybrid? As a small, two seater, it would seem to be a perfect place to innovate with a low carb drivetrain.
- DeFex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Just like miata but without balanced good looks or Japanese quality!
- joeykilluv, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2looks fast, bold, and manly, which is just what they were going for. great job dodge, if you produce it i will buy it
- CoffeeandTV, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The Copperhead looked so weird, yet I still wanted one.
- jcaino, on 10/12/2007, -4/+6except for the grill opening, the car from the back of the doors forward resembles an s2k
i think i'd rather have a turbo sky or solstice
wow...gm. yea, i'll certainly get dugg down for that. - DontSayFanboy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Yes, they are taking chances.
They are taking chances by releasing an "MX-5 killer" a full 18 years after Mazda released it.
They are taking chances by making their MX-5 killer bigger and heavier, because that's what people look for in a roadster.
They are taking chances by making their roadster resemble a popular line of pickup trucks, because that is what people want in a roadster. - DontSayFanboy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Dodge used to make some really great cars. To me, the 1970 Dodge Challenger is one of the coolest cars of that period, and to this day I would really love to have one.
But I have to agree that their current design team is lazy. Yes, their trucks are very popular, but that doesn't mean it is because people like that look on cars. People want a roadster that is small and agile. I don't know how this car will perform, but the MX-5 and S2000 are pretty refined styles. Dodge's concept looks tacky in comparison. - EmmEff, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5UGLY
- manoftheisland, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2S2000 with a different front lol
- RealHyperX, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Like my 2004 BMW M5 that has been in the shop twice a month for the last 18 months? Oh and it had under 20k miles on it.
- nbcivic, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Dodge needs to ditch that ugly grill design, or at least change it up a bit. All their cars, even the minivan look the same now.
- rogersmj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It looks OK...but wow that rear end was ripped straight off the new TT.
- mia1009, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1well HELLO!!! they are from the same company...there should be a consistency in design.
- Boofster, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3...and about half the HP out of a bigger engine. Go Dodge performance.
