I see it exactly opposite. I see the Camaro as the mean and nasty, and the Challenger much more subtle. The Camaro is bulging with all sorts of mean with nothing subtle. Maybe the nearly flat nose of the Challenger and slab sides, the car as a whole looks taller and not as wide as it really is.


Unfortunately, I'm stuck in politically correct Austin Texas and haven't seen a Challenger on the road yet.

I really don't care much about them... But of the three, I chose the Challenger. And my explanation:



Happy n_n

Camaro is nasty looking, no doubt. The Challenger looks more take no prisoners. It has that look of get out of my way......NOW! Imagine it coming charging up behind you in the left lane.

Challenger is hunkered down and ready to fight.
Camaro is more of a bob and weave looking car.

I voted "I'm a patsy that does not like V8s, America, and tire smoke."
Personally, I prefer I4's, Sweden, and having the traction to move instead of just sit there. But we all know that.

I pick the Mustang. The Maro looks too.. I dunno. The body up to the windows looks to big and the windows to short. Just something about it. Not my style, but like in the other thread, if it was cleaned up a bit, it would be better. The mustang looks clean in the picture and they look pretty cool too. I'll take a horse over some maro.

yea they did, its not a challenger with out a powerfull V8, but the good this is that they are making a drag strip version, so i have heard, that is being set up as a street/strip car, but the SRT-8s are already running 11.2's down the 1/4 mile.

And you know what, that yellow Camaro I posted, is a V6. And it's still *****en with the RS package. And just about the same power as the Mustang GT's V8. Good looks, and good go power.

With out the SRT8's low-profile tires, and low stance the car gets ugly and chunky. Reminds me of the gigantic Marshmallow man from Ghost Busters.

But, you can thank your government for pushing CAFE regs so soon.

Supershelby- I totally excluded the GT500, no Mustang is worth that much money from the factory. The GT/Bullitt is the top-trim mustang that isn't from Shelby and that doesn't carry a supercharger.
