I have to agree with the OP. I drove all 3 and to be honest I could probably be just as happy with a Mustang as I am with my Camaro. But the Challenger was a distant 3rd.

The Camaro is also built on a sedan platform. the Challenger has basically been suspended sofer, has nothing to do with the platform, but rather tuning. IMHO the new 12 adjustable suspension for the performance package V6, STP R/T and every SRT8 should really take care of that.

My hubby also test drove all three, Camaro/Mustang/Challenger. He said without a doubt the Challenger was #3 of 3. Too top heavy.
