The 6th gen is way too small on the interior for me unfortunately to even consider, and i'm 'only' 230lbs (6'5"). I sat in one at the dealership and it felt just as tight as the C7. I'm only 26 years old, but my knees are literally like pop rocks as soon as I step out of the Camaro.
Maybe I just need some more PT to get my body 'aligned' again  - but I'm curious about the challenger now! Maybe the 1LE will become the GQ and a Challenger could be the new daily.. hmm. |
The challenger is bruiser. It's an awesome DD and has the modern muscle feel and looks. The 6.4L hemi in the scat pack/SRT cars is a blast to drive and extremely satisfying.
The car looks great, opinions on interiors are subjective, but I think the Challenger interior looks just as modern as the Camaro. There is really nothing about the challenger that is more dated than the camaro interior-wise aside from the E-brake that the camaro has now. I would actually wager (Although I love both interiors) that the challenger is slightly more refined. It has leather trimmed and soft touch materials everywhere whereas the camaro felt a tad more plastic to me. The major differences for me for the interiors was that in the Camaro I felt like I was locked in in a fighter jet cockpit almost (Which I loved) and the Challenger is a more of a spacious and comfortable brute with loads of power, assuming you get the 6.4L, and of course better visibility.
Interesting note about the seats. I actually felt that the 2SS leather seats were much more comfortable than my alcantera suede seats in my scat pack. Of course, Steve drove a Shaker which has full leather, which I haven't sat in so I thought that was interesting.
