Dodge entered the muscle car fray in 1966 with its fastback Charger—when equipped with the mighty Hemi V8, it was good for 425 horsepower. Beginning in 1975, however, the Charger began a slow decline: first as a badge-engineered version of the Chrysler Cordoba, then as a front-wheel-drive hatchback that shared its platform with the humble Omni.
In 2006, however, Dodge returned the Charger to its Hemi-powered, rear-wheel drive glory. In SRT8 form, the current Charger churns out 470 horsepower.
