Photo Gallery: 1973 Dodge Charger SE Brougham - WebRidesTV (http://www.webridestv.com/showgallery.aspx?gallery=154432 - broken link)

notice how the guy laments how the Charger got too big and underpowered. What he doesn't realize is that some people (me for one and probably one and only!!) like the personal luxury effect. basically, the car is a 2 door Coronet coupe like the Chev Laguna

i would love this car except take off the silly sport hubcaps and put on some nice conservative ones

The '73 is cool but not nearly as cool as the '68-'70 IMO. The '68 is my fav!

Well, by '73 everything but the big block Trans Am had gotten underpowered due to insurance and emissions regs. And the Charger was always a 2 door Coronet fastback, and rather heavy.





And I agree aboutthe personal luxury effect. My own '72 was an enjoyable car, though I never finished it off, instead selling it to build my Mustang autocross car. But it was a nice mildly built big block in a relatively luxury package for the day:
