My husband has an SRT Charger with hemi with 4 doors. There are lots of versions with 4 doors.

I believe that Bloof of Tyrants is making the point that the current Chargers are not "real" Chargers at all. Just as many do not recognize the 1987 Charger as a "real" Charger (despite being 2 door).

Personally, I do not accept the last generation of supposed "Darts" as authentic, as they had so little in common with what Darts were supposed to represent. I also do not accept the 1979 "Chrysler 300" or the 300m or newer base models 300s if they don't ship with 300 hp, as that is what the "300" stood for.

Don’t forget the “300” of the old days was gross HP rating.
Knock off about 75 for SAE net.

The original name of that L-body car was the Dodge Omni 024, from 1979 to 1982 model years; Plymouth’s version was the Horizon TC3.

Last year of that car featured the Shelby GLHS version (just 1,000 made), which apparently could do mid-14s in the quarter mile; they took the Dodge name off the car.
