Hardly. They're limited in relation to the Camaro and Mustang,but the Challenger is still MASS produced,it's not like it would ever be trouble finding one to buy.Just 3-4 years of production still makes over 100K Challengers,hardly limited.

IMO i think mustags are a chumps car. i see it as a perfect car for a teenage girl. isn't that what this site is for anyways? to express your opinions? just like imo i think the cobalt ss is a joke

i will find you videos of stock gt's running 13.4 all day... what then? where did you get 13.7 from?

Yea missymy68. Your a living in reality all your own. Nice shot you took at my cobalt SS BUT it's not a chump car either it's the fastest car in it's class and did the nuringburg in Porsche times so get real. Your numbers on tv mustang are not actual. And even if they were that .7 seconds that u say is the difference to the general Publc who buys the majority of these cars won'take a difference. So get real

Those same incompetent drivers got 13.0 on a freezing day with the camaro. dont get me wrong the guy your arguing with is absurd in saying the mustang sucks and the camaro runs all over it. but hes comparing magazine numbers to magazine numbers.
your attempting to compare professional driver's numbers under ideal conditions to magazine driver's numbers under not so ideal conditions.

+1 Not too many people know that. With an 111mph trap speed the Camaro is a 12 sec car, they could not get tracion and keep the wheels from spinning since the conditions at the time of testing were near freezing temps. 34 degrees!!! That also effects skid pad numbers, Motortrend explicitly commented about that. Sooner or later the car mags will do their performance testing with all 3 cars on the same day.

Hey, I say if you want to bash other cars, go for it. That's part of the rivalry in the pony wars. If your too thin skinned, stay out of the kitchen. All in good fun
everyone.

That would be the GT 500. Not for me, but is indeed a monster.
