Isn't Chrysler supposed to bring out a Charger with the Hemi in the next year or two? From the sketches I've seen it looks like that will be ~3500lbs.
Sadly, we'll never see anything even close to the muscle car era again. Gas will never be that cheap again, emissions laws are too strict, and insurance companies are too willing to bend you over. They can do some very cool stuff with forced induction these days, but there's just no replacement for displacement.
I was next to a beautiful, mint Chevelle SS the other day, and it still blows my mind that you could walk into a dealership and just buy something like that. I'd have loved to have been around back then.
