ACCORDING TO SPORTS CAR WORLD, IN OCTOBER 1972: “THE STOPWATCHES DON'T LIE – BUT IT’S PRETTY HARD TO BELIEVE. A 0-100 MPH TIME OF 14.1 SECONDS! THAT’S REALLY FLYING – AND THE ENGINE’S NO THUMPING V8 NOR QUAD CAM V12. IT’S CHRYSLER AUSTRALIA'S 4.3-LITRE IN-LINE SIX, IN A STORMER CALLED THE CHARGER R/T E49.” WHEELS MAGAZINE REPORT: “THE E49 WAS THE FASTEST ACCELERATING AUSTRALIAN MUSCLE CAR OF ALL, CAPABLE OF TURNING THE STANDING QUARTER MILE IN 14.1 SECONDS AND CLOCKING 0-60 MPH IN JUST 6.1 SECONDS – NO MEAN FEAT FOR A SIX (CYLINDER ENGINE). THAT'S RIGHT. FASTER THAN A PHASE III GTHO FALCON. AND INTERESTINGLY NO OTHER SIX-CYLINDER CAR HAS COME CLOSE TO THE MIGHTY E49 CHARGER IN PERFORMANCE UNTIL FORD’S XR6 TURBO HIT THE SHOWROOM FLOORS SOME 36 YEAR LATER IN 2008.” PHYSICAL INSPECTIONS ARE WELCOME BY APPOINTMENT, AND VIDEO CALLS ARE AVAILABLE ON REQUEST.
