if you re-read my post you would notice this is what was meant...ill clarify

the point of the challenger is for people who want a challenger but cant
justify spending the same amount for an old car, but rather a newer car
that looks like the old one. its all about creature comforts.

i meant the fact that the new camaros arent actually fbodies

the fbody died in 02. the '5th gen' should be called the next-gen.


thats the reason i dont consider the new camaro a 5th gen but rather
the next-gen. its the first generation of a whole new camaro. much like
the way a new beetle isnt a generation of the old beetle in context.

the new camaro is going to weigh in close to 4k. its by no means a lightweight contender.

as for the looks....i said i would rather have a first gen updated with new
technology.

i want a first gen. dont want to
pay 30k for a car that rides like a school bus. if they took
a first gen body and updated it like they did the challenger it
would own.

the 4th generation was the pinnacle of the fbody.

the new camaro has first gen similarities but can also
say the rear 1/4 looks very corvette to me. the new
challenger can stand side by side with the old one and
almost look identical. thats what owns about it. i can
have the old school mopar look without sacrificing driveability
and safety.

first gens handle like a school bus. i didnt say the 5th gens.
