I mean - the Charger may have started life as a "mid-size" on the B Body, but that's still big by modern standards. The (arguably most famous) 2nd gen was 208" long, so this new one is still smaller...

Yeah - lose the back doors, move the B-pillar back and make the front door bigger (keep the back seats), and maybe shorten the wheelbase a tad? All I know is I'd totally buy one - I'm eagerly...

Is it really staggering or is it just we only hear about those and not the vast majority that have lived uneventful lives? I think it's the latter personally.
