Would you do it?
Fully loaded 12 Challenger 392, $51,500.00 msrp, being offered at $45,000.00 brand new. Been going back and forth on this decision for weeks, can't make up my mind.
I love the SS but the Challenger is awfully nice as well, and it will fit my entire family in it. Should I seek mental health treatments for considering this?

Sounds like a deal, the 392 is no joke. If you're gonna have the heft, might as well have the size too.

Not sure why you even bought the Camaro if fitting the entire family in it was a requirement.
I didn't realize the Challengers had usable back seats. This is a no brainer!! Trade it. |

I think the challenger has styling that looks better than the camaro and the mustang.
For instance, Love the head lights of the stang and maro but hate the tails on both... The 392 has a sick set of headlamps and the tails looks equally good. Just wish for the money they ran a little faster. We all know the hemi is capable, but SRT has been dragging ass lately. |

After testing the auto 392, I will say that it would give my cammed SS a run for the money. The car launches beautiful with just a hair of spin. I just don't know what is available for bolt-ons that actually produce hp after that though. Without the ability to tune, CAIs and headers may not add that much.
