If your in Kuwait, gas is like what .80 cent a gallon? Who cares if you have to fill it? If gas was that cheap here in the US, I'd have a V8.

Sounds like your loaded. Why not just buy both and be done with it. Why not throw in a mustang while you're at it.

I came from a BMW as well. A 335i. The Camaro was the easy choice. The 5.0 Mustang was my number 2 choice. The Challenger was just too big, expensive and heavy. But nice looking.

Tough choice!! For the same price of an SRT8 (around 45k OTD) you can get a 2SS Camaro fully loaded with ground effects and factory 21" wheels. I'd say the Camaro is the best bang for the buck. The Challenger is a heavy car and the handling is not as great as the Camaro.

Since you have SOOOOO much money, order the ground effects kit from the USA. Its afterall, AMERICAN vehicles so orderign anything you wish aftermarket for the car is available HERE! I cant understand your comment of having to fill up an RS every 5 minutes. What the hell are you expecting? 50mpg? If you want high performance and youre going to do a total make over to the car in which money is no object. I suggest buying a ZL-1 soon then modding it out to over 1000+ HP on pump gas and run somewhere in the 8s 1/4mi. That shoudnt effect your pocket book with about 8 mpg which I'm sure is about best with that many horses. But hey its no heel for a stepper like you right?

If I would have to it over again, I would go with the Challenger 392 auto (over the L99) for several reasons: 1) The L99 just needs to much money thrown at it (IMHO) to make it as fast as a Chally auto. 2) Not a big fan of VVT or AFM. (costs alot to swap over to LS3). 3) The head room in the 2SS (w/ or w/o sunroof) makes tall people practically lay down to drive it. 4). The Chally 392 is one sweet car from the factory: speed, no-afm, seating, looks, and MPG. Doesn't need the $4K (shop) cam swap, ported TB, CAI, complete exhaust to get the power out of it. It simply comes with it...... The Camaro is really great for looks, and custom moding - but for power to $ ratio, I would go with the Chally 392 auto. |

I guess it depends on what the dealers around you have, some dealers started raising their inaugurals +5k or something because they are so rare.

Well I may not have the same type of money you have, but I could get either car as well, and I have to tell you, you are getting so much more with the Camaro. Everything you are hearing about weight are an issue, and you said it best yourself...the Camaro is just SEXIER... Get the ZL1 fully loaded!! cant go wrong there...
