I'm not trying to offend or bash, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who expected more of a makeover when we were waiting for the 6th gen debut. Take the new generation Mustang for example. It's completely different looking from the last gen. You can't apply this to the Challenger because they have not changed generations yet.

The looks of the 5th Gen was widely held as a enormous success. If it was held as a failure, that is the point where I would expect drastic changes. It's not too smart if GM took a huge success and threw it away. BTW, when I see a new Camaro, it is a very nice change, the looks of this new Gen make the car look awesome at each trim level, for me this wasn't the case in 5th gen.
And look at the new Ford gt...wow way different from the last one....oh wait, no it isnt, nor do I think it should be. I could go down a list of 100 car models and say the same thing. Viper...they all look the same...what a failure. Porsche...failure.
