is the handprint om the RH side of the trunk lid (next to the bowtie) an option or a standard feature?

The backup lights look like a serious afterthought - like the marker lights on a 68-69

Very sharp, but Victory Red is till for me.
Im surprised that the darker RS wheels dont match the paint better.

I assume that calculation is solely based on looks? Since the dodge is heavier, slower, costlier and drinks more gas.

I assume so. I do prefer the looks of the challenger though. However, I can't decide which car is more hideous inside.


Ninja edit* I'm still looking forward to taking Al's car around the track!

I think I just changed the color I want on my dream Camaro.

But I do agree with Tsar, the interior isn't too pretty.

I belive your calculator is broken. It forgot to carry the 1, so in fact the Camaro wins by two times the crap you posted.

Take away design, Camaro beats it in every single quantative test.
Price, power, handling, braking, ride, fuel efficency
The only thing the Challenger beats Camaro on is size, weight, and slab sidedness.

That gray is beautiful!! They had a red SS, a silver SS, and an orange LT at the Auto Show, and they all look awesome too.

Pictures don't do that interior justice. You and Tsar need to go to the NYIAS and sit in it; you'll be more than impressed. I'm 5'3", and could get comfortable and not look like a midget. The seats are very supportive, and the gauges are super nice. The only "oddball" thing is having to look down near the center console for the fuel/volts/oil/temp gauges, but that's how it was in '69. I was even able to stuff my 5-year old son in the back seat and he was comfy.

The Camaro has a lot of things, but it sure doesnt have magic Steve.

Coolant and Fuel are in the IP. The four guages are volt, trans temp, oil pressure, and oil temp I belive.
Seats are VERY good. Cant wait to see if they will swap out into the third gen. The cloth and leathe seats have the same shape, and both hold you down.



To Slo, you are about performance and about not paying a bunch for it. You are about having the baddest car on the block.
Camaro is that, sir.
Ford cannot offer a 400hp+ engine unless you spend over 40k. Challenger's 400hp+ car cost around 40k as well.
Camaro gives you 426hp for 31k. Along with Brembo brakes that give you best in class braking. Along with super strong IRS and agile IFS with variable rate steering rack and pinion.
So, do you really want a Challenger?? Lets get the paperwork started. /salesman

I just checked the pic I took of the cluster, and you are correct. Also, one Camaro I sat in had leather, the other had cloth, and they felt the same, so I believe they're the same seat. They're friggin' awesome!! I know in the pictures I've seen, the headrests look ridiculously high, but they're not when you're sitting in it.

Ahahaha...look good Steve. Ill start drafting the paperwork...

Here is the GF in the IVER car at Indy. She's 5'3-5'4. Somehow I fit in the same space....Im not sure how, but I fit fine.



And yes, the seats are great, both in leather and cloth. I like the sporty cloth personally. Its not that mouse fur in 4th gens.

Something about it I'm just not buying yet. I have to sit in one and really study it for a bit to get the feal. I swear I have a mental block that is preventing me from actually liking it.
