Man, the Challenger is hot - Page 4

I agree challenger is a very sharp, mean looking muscle car and might be a really good investment if you plan to hang on to it for a generation..the problem is it has no guts and drives horrible. If you like things for single dimensions than I would trade your camaro for a challenger and be happy with non-car fans giving you thumbs up. If you like neck snapping, sporty cruising, while keeping some money in your pocket keep the camaro.

The Challenger Forum is up the street and take a left!!

I don't miss the boat I drove. They just don't handle that well and I don't miss the $9200 more it cost.

One more point I would like to make. Since I was a Challenger SRT8 owner.

I have without a doubt got more compliments and looks and involvments with people with this Camaro. I did get a lot with the Challenger, but this Camaro has just stirred people up in a different way. I think it is more Universal.

I was impressed with the Challenger when it first came out. I was stunned, but I waited for the Camaro to come out. I was blown away when I seen the Camaro, my heart started beating fast. I wasn't thinking about getting the V8 though. So my options were easy. Camaro all the way. If I had the money for the SS or SRT. I would still get the Camaro. Just my opinion though.

I have no idea what you mean by trolling, but the local one I saw was the first blue with the R/T badge and it looked hot.

The picture you saw came right off the dealers website and looked just like that. Anyway, the Camaro is a great looking car also. I just really liked that retro look and color in person.

Have you driven one yet? Drive it and compare how it drives to the Camaro...you will find there is no comparison..Camaro all the way Man... don't waste your money...

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.

The car look good but drive it can you say Queen Mary 3 ,
If you turn the steering wheel count to three as that is how long till the car starts to react to you and for a 425 hp it is so slow, its not a fun car to drive.

It looks as if you purchased a V6 Camaro.

Were you also looking at the V6 Challenger's?

Just wondering?

Here's your car.

TJ91 · 12-06-2009, 04:32 PM

Chally looks great, side profile is bland and boring. Drives like a boat but is very comfortable and the seats are 20x better then the camaro. Interior is pitiful since everyone has the same interior in every dodge. Looks great, just couldve been thought out better.
Camaro kills the appearence segment, see sales figure lol
chally is a great looking car, but it appeals to a very narrow market where as the camaro appeals to all the masses

My opinion is that the Challenger looks best, then the Camaro, then the Mustang.

The Challenger in my opinion has the best retro look out there.

No matter what you choose to do , i Thank You for supporting GM and Team Camaro . Your current Car looks great and i'm sure within time you'll realize that Camaro is the better Vehicle . I'm glad you looked us over and decided to go with Chevy , i wish you all the best with your decision.

Thanks for the correction.

Here's the V6 Challenger in the same color.

I say the Camaro looks a lot better.
