The 11 and up 392s handle a lot better than the early ones. It's night and day. While they're not on par with the ZL1 in the handling end they also don't cost as much. I love everything about the challenger ,but I went with the ZL1 because of the power. Other wise, I would be driving a challenger. The interior in the new challenger is a lot nicer to me than my ZL1. Exterior looks is just about a wash for me. I like both equally.
