yea but i got to admit the challanger is still a pretty damn sexy car. althought the camaro is alot nicer. good to see both on the road thats for sure
I noticed that too. I bet the power will be decent but the Challenger is too boxy and plain looking. And the Camaro will much more power and it looks alt better in the PRE-PRODUCTION stage then the PRODUCTION Challenger

I think it's the cloudy day, but I'm pretty sure that it is a glossy white. Just photochop some of my orange stripes on it dragon and see if it matches my sig.

Better yet, you can try and match my sig base paint to that color. Is this possible?

+1 I agree. It's hard sometimes when you keep seeing Challenger pics.

I like them both.

Maybe it's just the whole "Muscle Car" thing....but that can't be it, because I'm not really a fan of the Mustang at all. I think they look great. I prefer the Camaro (always been a Camaro guy), but if I was just floating in money, I'd probably have a Challenger too. Okay, I might get an older one first, but still.

The Camaro looks better, agreed. I won't rag on the Challenger though....I like it.

Oh, and I hate to be the one to take this shot, but I have to....give some credit to the Challenger over the Camaro.....


IT'S OUT NOW. We still have a year (at least) to wait for the Camaro. Not saying it won't be worth it, just stating the facts.

True that, the Challenger is out now, yes. But how many problems will she have with the first model. GM is just playing it safe. I do agree with the rest of you though. I do like it. The Camaro just looks better (and will probably have more than a 5.7 as their base V8. Of course, that is only speculation at this point.

I actually think the new Camaro wont have more than a 5.7 in there base V8... but thats off topic.

As for first year bugs.....well, lol, there called "FIRST year bugs" for a reason....any new production vehicle can have them.... its the severity/seriousness of the bug that can be a big deal and can be avoided if the car maker spends more time on pre-production on the vehicle.

I think the new Challenger is one MEGA-awesome looking car (Camaro is better tho), and it shows Dodge is really making good moves to stay up with GM by making the Challenger a carbon copy of the concept, just like GM did with the Camaro. You definatly have to give Dodge some credit for that.

I think that I need a quarter mile of clear drag strip, and a pure lead foot to slam on the gas before I can make a good choice (I wish), but in the looks department, I'll take the Camaro, hands down.

Really, I'm loving the this new muscle car era (seeing as i wasnt around for the first one)!!!

It's out now, kind of. They're releasing a limited number of top level Challengers now, but the real public release isn't until 2009. I like to look at it as both cars are coming out right around the same time, but the Challenger just has an early release program.

Ugly Challenger.

The new Challenger, like the original, is wicked fast, powerful, and .... ugly! The Camaro is beautiful.
