I seen a Dodge RT and thought it looked pretty nice, but I also wasn't impressed with the dashboard. Too large and looks like it's missing something near the glove compartment. Maybe a holly sheeit handle.

I went to the local Dodge Dealership with my friend (where I purchased my white 2007 Charger R/T) because he was looking at a red Challenger R/T, so I park up front (in the Camaro) go inside and we're talking to the guy, he tells us to follow him outside to look at it and we turn around and there's 3-4 workers and like 3 customers all standing around looking at my car, it was dirty too that day, lol kinda funny how even the people that work there aren't very loyal.

The best looking of the mustang, camaro and the challenger, in my opinion, is the challenger. Just exactly how a muscle car should look.

I don't like the interior of the car, but do like the seats. The car really looks good from any angle.

The negatives on it are that it is way too over weight and over priced.

Except for the part about the Challenger being exactly how a muscle car should look and being the best looking of the three...

Maybe they were thinking 1969.

Well let me put it this way "The Challenger looks just how a retro muscle car should look" with it's proportions I do think the Challengers the best looking (exterior wise) some parts of the Camaro seem off to me, and whenever I pull up next to a Challenger I feel like I'm in an Aveo compared to them.

I will never buy another Chrysler product again because we had a really bad experience with them. They would not stand behind their product. We bought a new car from them once and it was in the shop for repairs that cost over $1k each at least 3 times in the first 2 years. They said "that isn't covered by the warranty." They lost us as customers forever.

I read in either car and driver/motor trend or something, where one of the writers said, when looking at the guage pods in the camaro, how it looked like Elton John. First time I sit in the camaro, I was like, "damn...that does look like Elton John."
