10 year old platform...who cares. The Camaro came back in 2010 with an incredible design. Then they refreshed it and the majority of people hated it. Then the 6th Gen came out and people complain about that because it costs too much. The 2010 Mustang was refreshed and people complained. In 2011 it was sharpened and people complained. It was redesigned in 2015 but the money used for the redesign meant they had to sacrifice on performance and people complained. The GT350 was a failure. Now the 2018 refresh is out and people complained. It still can't corner well. And with the increased price comes marginally increased performance but only in a straight line. To get one that handles means waiting for the PP2 which will cost even more and people complain about that. So now we get to the Challenger. FCA decides to save money by NOT altering the looks and people complain. They steadily increase hp/tq and then offer the most powerful mass produced engine and people complain that it is on an old platform. They up the ante again with the Demon and people still complain about the 10 year old platform. So when the manufacturers refresh and redesign people complain. When they don't complain about the looks they complain about the lacking performance. When the looks are ok and the performance is superb as with the 6th Gen Camaro then they complain about the price. People complain that the HC and Demon are one-trick-ponies but then get mad that the ZL1 (which does everything well) is limited and needs serious modifications to keep up with a bolt-on HC. So no matter what these companies do...people complain.

I don't care how old the platform is, these cars look awesome!! I got my HC's oil changed a little over a week ago and saw the new CHarger HCs and a few Trackhawks. The Challys and Chargers are awesome looking despite how old the platform is. So what it doesn't corner...don't you guys know how to mod a suspension? It is a 707 hp car that is roomy, comfortable, very well optioned, and has an aftermarket of suspension upgrades to help it corner better. It has trunk space, it can fit 4 adults comfortably. It is competitively priced. What more do you guys want??
