Well I like the way the Challys look, its just...they seem so plain jane inside, compared to how pretty camaro interiors are. My family for instance my dad has all 3 new top end offerings from the big 3, I have a new mustang too. I dont really like the challengers drive, handling, etc. It feels...like a land boat? The mustang and camaro are the best buys, on top of what they offer, they look good. The challenger looks good...but...to me? Just to bulky.

The Camaro wins over all imo and likes. Its gorgeous off the dealer lot. And if I could've afforded to buy a brand spanking new new one instead of building an insurance auctioned cammer that was a claim. Then I would've. And just left it dandy alone.

Sadly I do not like where things may go, it will be sad if the chally goes bye bye like the GTO, in fact I loved Ponti, solstice was a cute deformed little roadster. G8 was a solid contender. I am ganna buy off my friend who was just recalled to afgan his g8. He doesn't intend to come back fully, afterwards he wants to move to the UK, so the G8 will be mine for good. Bargain imo.

But I still dont like what happened to ponti. And though I dont prefer mopars, I still find them nice to look at. 300c and charger are great LEO vehicles. And I think the G8 would've been a great alternative to those too. :\ I just hope in the future better things can come of such companies or they sell of their trade vehicles to let them survive even in the face of the company as a wholes demise.

They are just so iconic. Really makes me sad. Makes me want to re-arrange my priorities and try to get samples of certain cars before they become over priced and hard to find. (aha!) I really do like the vipers though, so we'll see.

And the Jeeps are nice too, I was looking to build another one for mud duty. :(

So finally my 69' has a buddy in the garage. Bought at insurance auction, smashed up face, and needing lots of tlc. He's all better now. Not quite the BRAND new Camaro I was aiming for, but perfect. Now I don't need to buy one, having to strip it and rebuild. Stock motor is going into something else. New body parts, new heart. He's waiting to cruise to Sema
