2011 LS V6 vs 2011 Dodge Charger SXT V6

I know the LS has the 3.6L, and the Charger is a 3.5L, who would win?

the camaro destroys the 3.5l charger... looking at your mods if youd throw some headers/gear/tune you would be able to run with the R/T.

I wouldn't say .3 seconds faster to 60 mph and through the quarter is "destroying" the Chally.

The Challenger only weighs 130 lbs more and these numbers were with it's antiquated 5-speed automatic .

*edit-woops I thought it said Challenger, but the Charger only weighs 70 lbs more, same basic specs and #'s.

Still down on power & up on weight ... usually not a winning formula

The V6 Camaro shouldnt have a single bit of trouble with the V6 Chargers, 290ish HP and 260-70 TQ on 4000 pounds or so of weight.

However, the 2011 R/T has the same engine as the 2009/10/11 Challenger R/T's, and have been turning in solid mid 13 second times.

Long story short...

V6 Camaro vs. V6 Charger-Camaro wins

V6 Camaro vs. Hemi Charger-Camaro loses.

A year ago this stupid mag got 5.1 for v6 mustang and 13.7 quater... Now its 6.2 and 14.5... Where the real numbers are 5.8 and 14.0.

Back to the topic, Camaro v6 vs any charger/challenger v6 is the way faster
Equal to R/T with a full set of mods.

I rented a 2011 V-6 Charger a few weeks ago. A V-6 Camaro would easily take it.

I used to own a SXT Charger and I know how fast it wasn't. But I never knew what they would be head to head on a track. Thanks guys.

Again magazine times are more for reference and really don't predict real life outcome. I love how magazines are saying the times for the R/T are quicker for 2011 yet it weighs more than previous years, has the same 5 speed auto and still has a crap drag coefficient. Oh and stock for stock a V6 Camaro manual is almost as fast as an Altima so if I can beat my friends stock 2010 AWD Charger R/T while I was stock I dont see why the V6 Camaro would need all those mods to do it.

Lol magazine racers make me laugh. My point is a Camaro v6 shouldn't need all those mods to beat a R/T given a decent driver. So beating a v6 Charger is not an issue for a v6 Camaro.

None of the new V6 engines are "shitty". The LLT, Pentastar and the Ford 3.7 are great engines for the cost.

I think with the new penstar v6 chally it will be a driver race, but modding and driver will give different outcome as always.

out of those 3 I think ford 3.7L is getting the most love. Tons of tuners, tons of gears, tons of mods, and now a procharger but she s the ugliest girl of the campus
