'Cuda on its' way back?

Could be?

That would be awsome if it did but only if i saw what it would look like first.

I'd love to see the Cuda make a comeback. Along with the rest of Plymouth's muscle lineup. We need less of this economy sized 4cylinder European body styling crap. Bring back the all American muscle.

As long as it looks like a cuda, and not like the Charger that looks nothing like the orig. car
My daughter has a "Super Bee Charger" and it is a nice car, but it should of never been called a Super Bee or a Charger.
If it does not look like it then it should of had a new name:uzi:

i must say i agree with that

I was a little disappointed by this generation of Chargers. It would've made more sense to call them Coronets. If they did what they did with Chally, but better... I'll save up for one.

Not like the Fiat Fart either.

SatelliteJosh Mar 7, 2012 07:28 PM

I'd love to see another Superbird that's got the same performance & outta this world look as the original...that's gonna happen!

I always thought the new chargers always looked much more like the 4 door satellites...I had a '69 four door for a couple months and when I was next to a new charger, you could see almost all the angles and lines were the same. I also feel the same way about the Dart...Why?? Are all the names for cars used up?

I am really surprised on one has come out with a 'Cuda front and rear clip kit for Challenger. That is all you really need.

Same could be done for Cammaro to Firebird..

Beepbeep71 Aug 22, 2012 10:57 AM

Wow never knew. I remember him supercharging Mopars back in the early 70s

Thanks. The cuda is cool but single round headlights would be even cooler for AAR

boomer400 Aug 6, 2013 10:31 PM

It would be nice if whatever it is combines a strong motor with a proper independent rear suspension; sacrilege to the old-school purists but that would put it a leg up on the Fords and GMs. Especially combined with a strong motor.

Mr.4spd Aug 7, 2013 03:09 AM

Plymouth is all done, so would it be called the Dodge Cuda? Doesn't roll off the tongue quite right.

slade Aug 7, 2013 05:35 AM

it will be strictly a srt car like the viper. so srt cuda. sounds awsome. esp with that hellcat hemi that in the pipe line

BuckNeccid Aug 8, 2013 03:48 AM

Read the article, it says no styling cues from original Cuda, not a retro look car.

Buffalojoe426 Aug 8, 2013 03:22 PM

I have driven a few of the new charger police cars. They are nasty! But I could do without the name Charger. Its true that they should not use iconic names unless the car takes inspiration from the original car. I love the look of the new Challenger. If they do discontinue it I shall be very sad.

If the Cuda looks nothing like the original cars I am going to protest..... somehow.

slade Aug 8, 2013 04:16 PM

everything ive heard is it willhave retro styling only time will tell though

Old thread revival, Power Block TV is running a teaser ad showing a view of the top of the grille up to a shaker hood scoop. The Cuda is back.

So Chrysler is going to revive the Plymouth brand just to rebadge a Challenger??? I don't think so...

RacerHog May 27, 2014 07:00 AM

I don't see it happening ether.....

quick_rod May 27, 2014 10:29 AM

Can't say what is on Chrysler's' mind, just telling you what a I saw this past Sunday morning. Watch Spike TV 's Power Block shows and tell me what you folks see. I know what I saw and it was topped with a shaker hood scoop.

quick_rod May 27, 2014 05:54 PM

Finally found the ad. Why show only the top of the grille to the hood scoop if this is the Challenger? Everyone knows what the Challenger looks like, why not show the rest of the car? The only words are what you see on the screen, "If you know, you know".

Guess will see???????????????????????

ZEN357 Apr 2, 2018 04:47 AM

Why replace a car that sells so well? This is what the big 3 always do. Bring out something that does well and screw it up.

ZEN357 Jun 21, 2018 06:02 AM

Things don't look good for Chrysler!!

What did you hear?

Iowan Jun 21, 2018 03:02 PM

Fiat hasn't been selling it's cars like it hoped so there's been talk of them pulling Fiat and dumping the Chrysler name, 300 and town and country and just having Ram, Jeep and maybe Dodge?
I don't know how it came out I guess I care that much.

Chrysler hasn't been Chrysler since Mercedes bought them out.

RacerHog Jun 21, 2018 06:54 PM

Kind of becoming a tread…. Ford is dropping all but 2 of there car lines coming up...

ZEN357 Jun 25, 2018 05:37 AM

Typical of the big 3, mess with something good that sells.
