Also though, why didn't they try to compete with the Mustang? The pricing of some of their newer cars makes it seem very likely that they could've offered the Charger for around the Mustang's price and have like 45 or whatever horsepower more. Of course, horsepower isnt't everything (look at the GTO's 350), but the extra 45 horsepower and a somewhat light package would equal a pretty cool sports/muscle car.
