Re: New Dodge Demon
Another case of regurgitating a former glorious moniker in hopes of reviving some long lost MoPar MOJO!
 Now the '08 Chally? That's another story!

Re: New Dodge Demon
Not that it bothered me at the time, but the name "Demon" caused alot of bad press from the Evangelicals who disapproved of it. Chrysler dropped the name because of this. Hard to believe they are that stupid to bring it back.
  Of course, "No va" in spanish means "no go", and a "Matador" is a "killer", not a bull fighter.  This is why marketeing people have a hard time getting any respect.

Re: New Dodge Demon
I think it's kind of cool. If anyone has a problem with Demon they ought to be taken out back and shot...its a car name for crying out loud.

Too bad its not true, just another urban legend. Here's a link to the real story. http://www.snopes.com/business/misxlate/nova.asp

[/ QUOTE ]  But the flip side of this story: We had a Catholic Priest from the Quincy, IL area who used to race at our strip; a Great Guy and a dedicated, hardcore, successful racer. His name was David Munn and he had his car lettered as "Father D.MUNN" with a little devil incorporated in the artwork. Unfortunately he died of natural causes at a very early age,(around forty if I remember correctly.) Everyone liked and respected the guy. Just a lot of fun to be around, and obviously a cool sense of humor.  __________________________ Now, for the new Demon.................. looks like that POS Solstice collided HARD with a Ram truck.
