This was interesting:

Running through those gears, the G8 just barely beat the Charger, the score in seconds to 60 mph being Pontiac 4.7, Dodge 4.9. The margin slimmed to 0.1 sec. though the quarter-mile, the Pontiac running 13.1 sec. at 109.4 mph, the Dodge 13.2 at 108.8.
And this is with the AUTO.

Too many people have Chargers. Since they are so close, I'd choose the GXP.

I just pictured you hitting a couple of people on your way to school.
