If you can't decide between the two cars, then you don't belong in a Camaro.

However, if you want to get a real life, buy a Camaro and move out of Bakersfield.

Get your muscle car while you can

Get your muscle car while you can because we may be the last of the dying breed of muscle car owners in history gentlemen they may not be around for long but muscle cars are sure a beauty and nostalgic......:p opcorn:

For your options the camaro looks so much better..
I like the chally looks too.. but I dont see why there is a comaprison.. Maybe interior, if that..
Camaro IMO beat it in exterior, power, options, and it's going to have the best aftermarket..with all that money you saved you can easily make 500hp with bolt ons.
3.90 gears, CAI, LT Headers w/ complete exhaust setup, tune... all will add up to chally $ wise.. yet you will prob have almost 50-75 more rwhp. add a cam..100 rwhp easily.

Performance,looks and confidence are all with he camaro.
Chally is nice to look at.. and maybe you could take out a couple civics.
I'm personally trying to show my buddies with STi's n Evos up.

Getting the chally you might regret once you pull up next to a camaro..
I dont see anyone having any regrets with the camaro unless you go out of town alot. If you want a road trip car get the GXP.

GM all the way.

SORRY FOR GETTONG OFF TOPIC..but

btw.. you dodger's [dodge lovers]

I hate it when people this day and age say " Oh man u gotta hemi!"

Hemi is just a trade mark name.

Hemi = Hemispherical Combustion Chambers.

It's the SHAPE of the inside of the cylinder head that promotes highly efficient combustion and gas flow characteristics that allow these engines to make the gobs of power they produce.

Everyone has hemis now a days.
60's hemi= top of the game
srt= nothing special. get a 2nd job for gas.

LOL! Go Dodge! Chevrolet vehicles never have any transmission issues and if they do, they are nowhere near complete failure like Dodges'. This is complete fact. My family has had a 1985 Dodge Charger and a 1995 Dodge Dynasty. The Dynasty needed the transmission torn down 3 times and still never shifted correctly when repaired. Dodge nearly bankrupt my parent's and the Dynasty was inherited! What a gift! The best was when my father was vacuuming the backseat and the rear window mysteriously shattered in the street. There were no prior cracks or scratches on it. Just the slight vibration of the vacuum cleaner on the interior and <PLOOOOOOOOOSH!> Beware all you Dodge Challenger lovers, if you think Challenger is cool, beware, it will be true to it's name because it'll be a complete "challenge" keeping that piece of shit on the road for more than 2 years.

Really, I have no beef with Mustangs. Ford quality has improved over the years and seems to have their business credentials in order. They will still pale in comparison to the Camaro though.

I wouldn't say the SRT is nothing special. It's like saying the SS/LS3 is nothing special, yet we have people on other threads afraid of parking their future camaro's and hiring body guards, and carrying concealed weapons etc.

I know plenty of people that say it isnt. They thinks its top of the line engineering in 2009. haha.

and yeah
SRT and SS basically are known as the "highest and most powerful options" type of deal.
