No one walks in to a Dodge dealer with their eyes set on buying a Charger, they really came looking for a Challenger, but they realized they needed to fit their fat sister inlaw plus a few kids in the back seat.
The Charger is bland and pretty fugly.
If you say so

Me thinks you don't understand what cookie cutter means

Actually, while I'm not a fan of either the Charger nor the Challenger, I have always thought the new Challengers to be hideous. And if I'm going to buy such a large vehicle, it better have 4 doors. Therefore, if I were in the market for a Dodge, I'd pick a Charger any day. I mean, why not? What does the Challenger have that the Charger doesn't? Aside from cumbersome 2-door issues?
I dunno. I like the Charger styling. It is not "pretty" due to the corporate in your face grille, but it is distinctive. I get a lot of people randomly walk up to me at gas stations and such and compliment how it looks too (Mine is a red pearl metalic color).
It doesn't seem to me that the styling is universally disliked, or that people who buy them wish they had a Challenger instead. (Surprise, one can put children in the back of a two door Challenger. Heck, I haul my daughter around in the back of my BRZ).

It has style. And a lot of us like full size coupes, be they Mercedes, Jaguar, or classic large 2 door musclecars. 4 doors for many of us remind us of grandpa's car and boring sedans.
The Challenger is a stylish, and with the right options, fast, comfortable cruiser for those of us that DON'T have to haul a family around with us everywhere we go.
Remember, the Challenger is a throwback to the era when large, 2 door, powerful coupes ruled, from the domestics AND Europeans.

Right, and I agree. I have 2 little ones, and they always want to tag along when I go grocery shopping on weekends. A 2-door would be a major hassle.
I was merely replying to the poster who said that no one goes to a Dodge dealer wanting a Charger over a Challenger.

There's a reason why Dodge products flood buy here pay here lots after just three years and a refitted with Dubs. It's don't matter if it's the Charger or it's sister in different body work the 300 cookie cutter and bland.
