If gas/insurance is paid for by an outside party, SRT8. If not, go with Camaro. No questions asked.

No comparison...you need to compare the Camaro SS and the SRT8...Camaro all the way. My buddy has a Challenger SRT 392 Hemi...on paper it's quicker, but that's on paper.

This question is kinda goofy when your comparing a 392 hemi to a V6 camaro. That's a apples to grape fruit comparison. IMO the op should test drive all 4 of the current muscle cars that are all close performance wise(mustang 5.0,camaro SS,challenger 392 and charger 392) and see what he likes best.

Thx thats what im gonna do test drive both

Really? i guess if you want better gas mileage or HAVE to have a coupe regardless the Camaro may be better, but let's take a trip to reality here, ANY year Charger SRT is not only going to feel faster, it is absolutely going to rame a V6 Camaro in every performance category.

Wow this is real huh! Should I get a 392 or a v6 camaro lmao

[dekan513]

v8 all the way . but u can find a used 2010 camaro for 28k or so. probably with like 5000 miles or so.

why would you look at a SRT8 Charger and a V6 Camaro. I'd be looking at an SS over the 2LT. I'd rather have a 1ss over a 2lt, you can add the 2 options and rs package. You can't really add the V8 engine on the V6's suspension, brakes, or chassis.
Look at an SS

I don't think it is.

So mom and dad are going to go out and buy you a $50k car, huh? And you live in one of the poorest states in the union, in a city with a median income of only $35k?

Right.

[Boris632]

SRT8s are 45-50k
the Super Bee is 41k

Drove a loaded SRT8 Charger - very very nice car and very fast. Also Procharger is selling 392 kits with a diablo tuner so the aftermarket is starting to open up.

If you have a family or are looking at having one soon - go with the Charger.


For some reason you are listing a V6 Camaro. If you have a choice you might be able to swing a used ZL1. Or if you need new then go with a 2SS 1LE.

Cant go wrong with either but id probably opt for a new LS3 Camaro

Right.

The kid lives about five miles away from one of the top engineering schools in the southeast. Maybe his family makes several standard deviations above the median.

I really do not understand why these types of threads exist.My means of transportation is determined only by availability and my ability to pay for it in cash. Neither would I have asked for my parents to buy a nice car for me, nor would I have asked strangers for advice on which car to get. OP, if you wanted some advice, you really left out a lot of information. Are you paying on the car? Is your insurance in your name? What are your driving habits? Can you afford the fuel costs/maintenance/insurance? In your shoes, I would take the car money and invest it in myself. Get a degree or learn a new skill that will help you when you enter the workforce.

It's a public forum and he wants input. He's getting mine - I think he's full of crap.
