I love how they matched their 379HP boat against the SS in performance and their 475 HP one against the GT500. Too bad it will fall short against both.

50 hp is more than enough to make up for 300lbs. Quit living in fantasy land.
some people just LIVE and die by factory HP ratings.

The big difference is price. I almost bought a challenger (dodge family and I have a charger) but the camaro looks amazing, performs better and costs 7000 less for same options (old motor). I am chevy/dodge all the way.
