Both look good, but with the Challenger SRT-8 getting the 6.1L HEMI V8 w/425 HP, 420 ft-lbs of torque, I'd probably go for the Challenger. Chrysler confirms Challenger SRT-8 - Autoblog
Challenger definately has that "throw back muscle car" look... AND the HP to back it up! Hmmmm , wonder if the wifey would mind me getting a SECOND mid-life crisis?
I think just like in the 60's the Camaro and Challenger will pace each other in sales. Pisses me off that they will probably sell more Mustangs then my 2 favorite cars combined but then what the fuck does the general public know anyway about cars. They did the same thing in the 60's.
If the camaro comes with the LS7-505hp motor....Camaro all the way.
That thing was killa in the movie Transformers.
It didn't look as good in person though. I took some pictures of the bumblebee transformer, I'll see if I can dig it up. The challenger is going to be pretty damn heavy if I am not mistaken, otherwise I think that I might be leaning it's direction.
I'm waiting for the Camaro convertible. I bought a new Shelby GT500 convertible and sold it 3 months later. Overrated car. Suspension and handling were sub-par. Coupe would have been better b/c the suspension is different. It was okay, nothing great, just paying for the Shelby name.
.02, see em both in person, drive both prior to your decision.
Lately I've found that for whatever reason, more often than not, pictures aren't doing cars justice.
Apples to apples regarding performance probably.
Both great things though !!!
Pontiac guy at heart, wish Pontiac (GM) would step up and have a retro look to the GTO's as well as the current look is a fucking disgrace to the name.
Always loved the 67-69 Camaros! Id take the camaro in a heartbeat! Buddy of mine is eyeing the Challenger and me the Camaro - we both like both cars but I think it comes down to personal preference! I hear a 505hp motor for the Camaro! And yes it looked so cool in the movie!
