Don't hate it, but don't like it either, honestly I feel with the shape of the rear end of the Charger I find the R/T without the spoiler to look the best as it gives it that more classic Charger look, and I say that as someone who normal prefers how spoilers look on most cars.
 
I like it. It goes along with the weirdness of the EV Charger concept.

Yes I feel the exact same way, although I do like this concept.

I am glad the R/T had the smooth trunk as it looks way more like the OG 68-70 Charger.
 
What you want is a vinyl roof.

I'm already thinking along the lines of a Mod Top wrap, don't get me started! I almost did that on my Plum Crazy Challenger Scat Pack Shaker. I found a purple paisley patterned vinyl that called to me.
 
Hmmm, it is not functional, but only a handful of the 1 million spoilers on cars actually are, so that shouldn't really matter. I like how it pays homage to the old Daytona wing. I do like it, but I wouldn't put it on mine. Ya know, this just got me thinking about our "exhaust" system and how I don't like it because it is fake. I laughed and hated this fratzonic crap when I found out about it. However, I think that Pioneer guy brought up a good point (another thread) about the safety and the sound requirements by the NHTSA, (which I agree these cars should have some sound, I almost stepped back into the path of someone's prius like 20 years ago when they were backing up), which was basically if we have to have sound, why not a cool sound. But anyway, this spoiler got me thinking of all the fake stuff we have on most cars already. Spoilers, fake "Dual" exhaust, about every hood scoop out there, every fender vent (I think the last real one was a Trans Am), wheels with the bolt pattern around the rim whe they are not really 2 piece, and honestly loud aftermarket mufflers that just "muffle" less sound, it doesn't add power, it is a mod people do to only make more percieved sound, just like this corny fratzonic system does. So it is making me think less harshly of the fratzonic now. But I still think it's corny, maybe it will grow on me.

So yeah, that was my simple way of saying, this spoiler is alright

Our Chargers have sound that meets federal regulation and is separate from the Fratzonic system. You could remove the silly Fratzonic Chambered "Exhaust" system entirely, and the car would still be compliant.

I think the fratzonic should have different audio files to choose from. Like someone else suggested, how about a lopey or choppy cam at idle?
 
Yes, it would be nice if they offered different sounds, but also allowed us to add our own.
Like that perfectly identifiable MOPAR sound of the old gear reduction starters.
Like in the intro of ZZ Top's "Manic Mechanic" (A Slant Six IIRC!)
