I want to see G.M get out of there slump but I hate to sound stingy to all people still waiting on there Camaros but it is such an awesome feeling now with there being so few camaro's out there! I totaly agree with the cruising part though! I just hope they build what has been ordered and no more. Don't want to see hundreds of them on car lots!

haha, i'm just playing with you man. Challengers are sweet I just love ripping into them when Chally enthusiasts get on here. Just like i love ripping the mustang.

Again, much easier said than done considering the current state of the economy and GM's financial situation.

Just as a little opposing anecdote...I bought a Camaro, and my brother bought a Challenger R/T. In June we met up in OH visiting family. We went on a cruise to the beach, and on the freeway my brother was driving behind me most of the way. He said he saw all kinds of heads turning to look at the Camaro, and his car got pretty much ignored. He seemed a little put off his car was already getting ignored when it used to be the hottest thing around, and he's only had it less than a year.

Personally I think they're both great looking cars.. Challenger seems pure retro while Camaro is more a blend of modern and retro. I think that maybe the 'transformers effect' gives the Camaro a little more celebrity status towards getting it noticed on the road. For the record, both our cars are a dark color (IBM and black), so I doubt that factored in a whole lot...although I admit I have white stripes and he has none, which does make the car kind of jump out at you. In your case though I'm sure the coloring may have had more of an impact...color does make a huge difference in getting your car noticed (both a good thing and a bad thing, since some of the attention is unwanted...ie from the man w the radar gun!) I bet I could spot a yellow Camaro from a mile away, whereas I might only notice a CGM Camaro when it's a few hundred feet.

come on now fellas, the challenger is a good looking ride. i like the styling of both camaro and challenger. challenger's got that classic look while camaro is more modern, but both are very nice. if i had to pick though, slight nod to the challenger... just because i prefer the classic look

not worth the coin when SS gives you more for less. doesn't mean i can't give props to the challenger for good looks.

My question is why buy two slow cheap cars (at least the chally is slow) and not just get the top of the line ss or srt? I would only get an srt if I had to get a chally... The car is kinda blah IMO and overpriced

camaro ftw
