I've got my 2010 Camaro for sale, so I can buy the Challenger. I think the SRT is awesome. I just love the looks of the Challenger. Has to be orange though.

dude, you come on a camaro website and you actually own a camaro and somehow magically, you get an epiphany that the challenger is better now and you regret buying the new camaro?????????????????????
what are u smokin' dude...
i tested the challenger and it was nice, but good lord dude......there's not even a comparison between the 2 cars...
hands down, the 'maro wins....
if u wanted the challenger, u should have gotten one, and i'm surprised u bought the camaro and had regrets....
in the eyes of most, this wreaks of "TROLLITIS".....lol

If I was a member of a Mustang or Challenger forum (and owned either) and said the Camaro looks better, the Camaro handles better, yet bought a Challenger or Mustang, WTF do you think would happen? Yes, it's exterior is good looking, but you will not see me or anyone decent starting a topic on it.

Of course you are going to get defensive comments.

I have a better Idea...Why don't you go to a Challenger forum, put your Camaro in your sig and discuss how great it is. I am sure you will get many people there who will stroke your comments.

Or are you just looking for negativity? Anyone who has been on a computer knows common sense.

Perhaps absent from that decorum?

There you go, does that help you cope in your close minded world.
Not what I'm saying...

But you're gettin full, huh? I think you've had enough from me for one day...

Are you following me??

Personally, I like all the modern "muscle cars." Even the Rustang Obviously, my favorite is the Camaro, and that's why I bought one.

To the OP: You have to be careful how you say things and how you come across on forums. Unfortunately, you can't hear people's tone or inflect through the internet. Although I understood what you were trying to say, many people take it the wrong way when you post something that seems to want to provoke an argument... the definition of what a troll does.

Just saying!

Aquaman, I agree that the Challenger is HOT looking. Especially the Challenger Classic in B5 blue like you posted.

I , in fact bought a new SRT8 Challenger and I ended up selling it because it was a DOG! It did not run/was slow! Then I bought my new Camaro and all is well. The Challenger only ran 100 MPH at Fontana and my Camaro runs 106 with a way better ET.

One thing you need to do is give it some time. I do think the Challenger was the best looking at one time to me, but the longer I own this Camaro and every time I look at it from different angles it has grown on me and I now think this Camaro is right there with the Challenger looks wise if not better. I think the Camaro has a modern mean look to it and the Challenger has a classic mean look. I also like the modern Challenger way better than the old ones. The modern Camaro too for that matter.
Ron.

How much of a bath do you think you will have to take?

I bought my Camaro about $1,000 bucks under MSRP (includes the $500 GM rebate). I talked to my Dealer, but he was only willing to pay about $5K less than I paid. Of course, I would rather drive my car than take that loss.

A couple of used Camaros around here are asking about $3k less than the MSRP (all under 10,000 miles).

This photo comparison isn't even current so why post it? The 2010 Camaro is a re-invention of the Camaro. It doesn't align with anything before it, other than some body line influences reminiscent of 68/69. Other than that, it's brand new.



I still prefer the '10 Camaro.

Challenger 300M Box

I was going to get one until I drove one, DOG! I was also not paying the 51K (price gouging) that was being asked for an SRT8.

If you include tax and licence, I lost $9500 selling my Challenger SRT8. But I drove it every day for 4 months and put 6000 miles on it.

dragrcr, you don't have to convince me about the Camaro looks. It looks incredible. I think the Mustang GT looks good also, but the Challenger in the B5 blue looked out of this world. Also, from enough people here stating the Challenger is a dog, maybe the Camaro is just the overall better choice. I maybe sitting on the best car. The aqua blue on my Camaro is stunning, especially at night.
