For all the enthusiasts that complained about the LX Charger being a 4 door, I'm surprised to see anyone refer to their Charger as a "Daytona" regardless of what stickers the factory put on them. Equally blasphemous is the '77 Charger Daytona, a Cordoba with stripes. The only thing worse was the front wheel drive "Chargers" of the 80s. Bought an 85 Shelby Charger six months old in 1986, I will put it up against anything stop light to stop light anytime! Took a 70 Charger R/T from a light once and smoked it...LOL I am sure it would have caught and passed me in a 1/2 mile or so, but it was fun while it lasted... The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it. JB Rhinehart, Realist A-Body's RULE!

Either way I like the car and instead of congratulating a fellow forum member on his purchase you insult him instead, I keep seeing that MOPARTS members are @&$#@& on other forums and perhaps there is some truth to it. Not all Moparts members are @$$h0ies…..There’s one in every crowd. You guys have cool DAYTONAS. Let’s just hope guys like that don’t California our country.
