Wouldn't kick it out of my garage. Such silliness.

Put a loaded Camaro, Chally and Mustang in driveway, i could live with that!

I currently have a 2004 Ram 2500 Hemi to go along w/ my Camaro. You couldn't give me a Chevy truck. There is no room in the truck market for an independent front end on a HD truck.

A fully loaded new SRT8 looks SEXY!

Gotta love the sound of Hemi's too! But the Camaro....

They all rock. I would have any of them in my garage but in this order: Camaro, Challenger, Mustang. All hot American Muscle cars.

Go out to the garage, grab a hammer, set your hand on the work bench, and then hit your hand repeatedly until the urge to buy one goes away.

For those who bought the Challenger already...

Owning a Dodge is punishment enough.

I went out the garage...looked at my 2010 Camaro sitting there next to my 2009 Challenger and smiled!!!

I would be rollin around in one of the new 2011 392 challengers if they were not 10K more than my camaro will cost...

I love the way they look both inside and out

I definitely don't see what you guys do. I have to agree with one of my favorite quotes on this board a few months back "the Challenger would be OK, if it just didn't look like a monkey flying backwards".

I cannot find one aspect of that car to be appealing. Even though I know I am a Camaro-kid through and through, I try to be as objective as I can, but I honestly think I would rather drive a minivan.

Lets see....... Owned 6 new Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep and 4 used/new GM..... Only two of the GM's were new. One was a Grand Prix (which was a kick@ss car! but developed electrical issues), and the other was my 2SS (still unknown, but plenty of listed issues). I still have 2 of the Chryslers, one 13 yrs old (TJ), and CSRT8 which is 5 yr old... no problems with either. The only GM car I ever had past 2 years, '67 Lemans (used - nothing but new tires). Doubt if I keep my 2SS as long as my TJ and CSRT8.

Challengers are OK I just don't like the quality rating.

WadeWilson · 01-25-2011, 09:16 AM

I'd love to have the SRT8 sitting beside my SS in the garage.

toesuf94 · 01-25-2011, 09:32 AM

I love the Challenger...great looks - yeah, it is big...but it comes in cool colors, with a nav screen and lots of heritage inspired goodies.

And the Mustang GT is growing on me as well.

I will more than likely end up with a Camaro over the other two - but would not hate on either of them.

GrtWht_2010_2SS_RS · 01-25-2011, 09:53 AM

Everyone on here is so "feel good" "don't hurt anyone's feelings" "political"

I say screw the competition. This is a Camaro website and we are Camaro owners. Do you think the Camaro, the Rustang, or the Challenged would be what it is today without all the clowning on the competition? I doubt it, and therefore I say don't just bang your fingers with the hammer, smack that head of yours while your at it. When the competition starts turning the numbers that we do at the track, then they can clown back at us.

Stepping off my soap box.

Of all the cars you could call out, why the Challenger? It would probably be my second choice behind a Camaro if for some reason I couldn't get one. They look real slick when done right and the styling is amazing. The only major problem I have with them is that they cost about 10 grand more.
