How could you not like the wide body...:unsure:
Different strokes for different folks ... (not a Gary Coleman reference!)

While I like the looks of the wide body, the rear flairs take an ass kicking from the front tires. IF?!?! I ever got a different HC it would be a narrow body RE.
That's a good point. So the leading edges end up with lots of pits and rock strikes?

All depends where and how you drive...(to a degree)...have had a low mileage wide body since 2018 (expel wrapped flares)...no pits...no chips...but I'm extremely careful and have trimmed down stone guards

Maybe the drug seizure car will come with extra keys (;);)) that might offset the abuse issues and make it worthwhile:ROFLMAO:

The aftermarket rear diffuser is always the dead giveaway.

But..but...wouldn't it be financially savvy to get twice as many doors, four dually fenders, and a diffuser, for about the same money?

I was thinking that exact thing, Hunter. I even sought out pictures of your car a few nights ago to compare. It's going to be a hard decision.

Based on his posts a year or more ago, a Challenger is not really Magnified’s best suited car as far as comfort and convenience.

Maybe not buy either car, just ride in the back seat of a Charger as a paying customer as needed?

As a HC Challenger owner of about 6 years now I’ve grown fond of the Charger. My vote, Charger.
