No harm intended, but you drive a Charger and based on your post count you spend a considerable amount of time on this forum. Is that from envy, worried about the upcoming competition, you intend to buy a Camaro and see the light? Help me understand.

To each his own and the Challenger is pretty sweet, just not as sweet as the Camaro!

Okay so everyone CLEARLY took what I was trying to say the wrong way.

I was saying that the SRT8 is quite an experience. That's all. I'm dead set on the Camaro and have been for over a year, wouldn't it be smart to check out its competition?

YES, I DID say Charger. But you know what? The Charger and Challenger have the SAME MOTOR. That's what matters.

And whoever knocked on my TL, please. I have/had an E500 Sport, CLS500, S500, ML550, M45, G35 (4 door), and a 328i Coupe. The TL is the weakest car I've owned, but it is refined and a great daily driver.

He did say he liked the Charger more than the Mustangs, lol. He was quite honest with me.

Man I love American cars, and I'll love my Camaro but you can't knock the Japs. Lexuses, Toyota Supras, even my Accord is fast! 0-60 in 5.5 is definitely nothing to laugh at...

Cool. Hard to find a salesman that doesn't just kiss your ass. I hate that. I imagine that they hate when an informed customer comes up though. The only time I showed up uninformed is when Bonnie bought her Lexus. But that was because I didn't give a shit.

My Camaro was actually bought that day.

Why are you knocking my TL's torque when you drive a G5? I mean, really?

PQ · 02-24-2009, 07:12 PM

I think it was on this sight a couple years ago I read someone said;

"The difference in HP and Torque is HP is how fast my Camaro is going when it hits your Toyota. Torque is how far I push your Toyota after I hit it."

Can't remember who said it.

I checked and there IS a Charger SRT8 model. You have to "build your own" to see it though.

People know it exists but weren't sure why it (a 4-door) instead of the 2-door challenger would be compared to the Camaro.
