The Charger is a very high quality product and the attempts to belittle it are just childish. I have nothing against the SS and it is a fine car, but really for all it's improvements it is a lackluster update to the GXP which was a fine car 5 years ago and was then, as the SS is now, a competitor in price and intent wit the Charger SRT 8 which has improved MUCH more and is simply a better performer in each and every way and cannot even downed for it's interior as the old 08 models could.
