Not really, GTO from the 60's, and way early 70's, and of 04-06 made some awesome numbers, though the newer ones looked like a fat Grand Prix, but at least it kept to it's muscle car roots in a way.
The Charger's of the 60's and way early 70's, made awesome numbers,had sexy lines, and even starred in a country bumkin show. Charger of the 80's a hatchback with a 1.6 or 2.2, that once madea n appearance on Cannonball Run II. New ones are a 4 door 300C based car. Sorry that's whoring out a name that was once an icon of the musclecar era, then had it's face smashed in a pile of dog **** in the 80's, and when they had a clear chance to bring a pony/muscle car out that should be 2 door, they dropped the ball and made a 4 door sedan with the name slapped on, and then sold it with crazy colors, daytona packaging ( whoring that name out as well from the pickup to the Charger) but in the end, it's not a echo of it's once remembered days of reckoning, its just an alternate solution to people who didnt want to buya station wagon (Magnum).....
Speaking of whoring out a special name GM was doing a pretty good job of that with the SS moniker.
