Guys, I wish I could paste my review on Camaro VS Challenger.
I think it boiled down for me my age. I am 50 and really like the luxury of my Challenger. I love the Camaro too and made that clear in my review. I just am more into the retro look of the Chally and its fast enough for me. The Chally is easier to get into and out of. I love the Camaro and how it lights up at night. I like the way the hood looks when sitting in the car and looking over it while driving.
I like the ride of the Challenger better, the big hips in back and the rear end of the Challenger. I like the way the Camaro looks in the side rear view mirrors.. the rear fenders just look so cool.
I like the shift handle on the Challenger better. I like the seats better and head rests of the Challenger.
But on the Camaro I like my two tone inferno seats and the stitching.. looks awesome.
The doors on the Camaro kind of pop open almost like the window has to release them.. The challenger opens better.
Even though the Camaro is not that much faster than my SRT8 it really feels as though it is much faster in acceleration.
I really like the Challenger 6 speed manual shifting a little better..but am getting used to the Camaro.
I will admit also that I get more rubberneckers in the Camaro but both do attract attention.
I just do not think many people even know the Challenger exists.. and by the time they notice it they think, what the heck was that.
The guys on the Challenger site are for the most part older than the Camaro owners, especially us old guys that own the SRT8 cars.
Camaro owners should be proud of what they own and Challenger owners should be proud of what they own.
Both are fast cars and if not careful dangerous so be careful out there boys and girls but most of all have fun and enjoy the fact that you can own either car.

I hurt to have to sell my Charger SRT8 in order to buy my Camaro SS, but now I'm glad I did, the truth is that both are awesome cars and you can't go wrong with either of them. I could have bought a Challenger SRT8 if I wanted too, but IMO, the Camaro has a more aggressive look to it, a nicer interior and it's LS3 engine has more potential than the Challengers Hemi 6.1L.
