I think Kevins real name is Kelli.

Ahh I hate ninja edits.

This is such a weird thread.

So anyway I would say Bullitt>R/T based on the weight adv, but if i had to own one it would be a tough choice. Challenger styling>Stang

Just get the Camaro and you dont have to worry about who comes in 5th and 6th place..

Fail, If any maker should be on that tombstone it should be Toyota.

Yeah, you're thinking of the SRT-8, the R/T's a bit lighter.

The '08 Bullitt has a curb weight of 3590, the R/T weighs in at 4040.

So about 450 pounds lighter, but the R/T makes up for the weight difference with more horsepower and better access to it at higher speeds/RPMs. Car and Driver found them to be about the same.

Well, in MotorTrend the Chally R/T got a 13.6, and the Bullitt a 13.7.

Slip off the brake and bury the throttle. There's a light chirp as tires scratch for bite. Then comes a sub-5.0-second sled ride to 60 mph. A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
