Woof! What the hell did they do to the durango?

"The Dodge Durango Concept design provides a strong hint of the next generation Durango that will appear in late 2003 as a 2004 model. The Durango Concept is approximately 85-percent of the production level exterior design."

Edit: The Durango was revealed at Detroit, the Magnum in L.A.

However this wagon doesn't look half bad, called the magnum SRT - 8. Probably won't see production with the S/C HEMI but if the chrysler crossfire goes over well i wouldn't be surprised to see this on the streets.

"The Dodge Magnum SRT-8 concept vehicle features a supercharged version of the 5.7-liter HEMI, churning out an estimated 430 horsepower and 480 lb.-ft. of torque."

Apparently those hood scoops are functional, they're feeding air into the 5.7 HEMI which sits under it. Supposed to be throwback to the Mopar muscle days or something. :dunno:

Ewwww to them all. Durango seems like they are trying to go retro again. Sigh.
