Tough Choice...IMO they both look mean!!

[atvRiDa400ex]

Just wondering what majority of the people on the site would choose between these two Classic Muscle cars. The Dodge Challenger or the Chevy Camaro!! The new ones look so mean and i think that a lot of people would love to have both! IMO i think the camaro looks great but its hard to choose! haha




heres a few pics to help you decide...

DODGE CHALLENGER:

Camaro ALL THE WAY!!

[pro-rider46]

i have heard rumors that the challenger has got 650hp from factory

[Raptor68]

They are both really nice...it'd be a tough choice! Maybe one for me and one for the gf!

[ATV Chic]

^^^ ummmm ya! def!:p I want the camaro tho :D

[miller821]

I've yet to see the Camaro in real life, so its hard to tell.. But since I'm a Challenger fan, I must say I love it; and looks much more original then what they did to the Charger.

I don't think it will be pushing 650. I've heard that there will be available, a 500+hp engine, but I don't think anywhere in the 600's.

I went to two car shows that featured this car, and it was definitely one of the main attractions.

I deffiantly would choose the camaro but corvettes arent overrated. We have one and it s**ts and gets.

M3:o

But if it was one of those. I guess the Camaro. But the interior is a complete joke.

ewwwww

[Raptor68]

These new cars are something different than the Vette and I am sure quite a bit cheaper. Plus there's room for four in the Camaro and Challenger. Don't get me wrong I like Vette's, but these are a lil more unique.

[Kaleigh]

I love them both.. But I have to pick the Challenger.. I love the smooth lines it uses and the double headlight with the grill..

[Quad18star]

Putting a deposit down for the Challenger next spring . :D I'm hoping to get 1 of the first that comes off the line.


Most of the rumours floating around that seem pretty legitimate , are that the Challenger will have an SRT8 engine that will pump around 425hp as an option.

Standard engine from a Chrysler realese said it'll come equiped with a 5.7L Hemi.

[Rulz]

I'm glad to see Chrysler bring back the Challenger, but there is no replacement for the original!! Here is my '71 with a 440-6Pak:

You're right ... there is no replacement for the original .. but I gotta give it to Chrysler ... atleast they made the new Challenger looks pretty similar to the old style.

Sweet looking car ya got ... we got a 69 'Cuda 340 sitting in the garage !!!:devil:

[JOEX]

From the pics, the Challenger by a long ways:cool:

[450rJam]

challenger for sure, the camaro looks more like an italian made tuner, and the door/console lights have got to go.

I wonder if the challenger would pull a 4 quad trailer ?

[450rJam]

first part of the video is pretty lame (I almost closed it)

she finishes strong though

would have liked to see some of the new cobras

oh yeah.............has nothing to do with the thread

[Hyperwarrior22]

Go with the camaro

it just looks like a beast

[pred174]

yeah but i figured i could shed some light on this thread of what a good car is suppose to look like

That 'Stang in the video looks stupid . I didn't even watch the whole thing .... as soon as I seen the lambo doors and the glass roof , that was it .. click , goodbye.

I Almost thought that was a camaro looks just like one minus the tailights, at first glance i almost thought it was a challenger because it was orange. I hate the way it looks, look like it stole the design of the camaro imo.

[pred174]

i love my mustang cobras but ur best bang for the buck is the corvette.....i am no means a chevy guy but there is nothing out there for the same price that could keep up with it drag or track....yeah i know u could stick all that money into and engine and make it go in a straight line faster but there is nothing out there that can handle like that thing can

I'm putting my bet in at 375hp .

[TGA400EX]

Camaro for sure.

[pred174]

ok last time i say anything about a mustang but i saw this this vid and i almost rubbed my self so hard a genie almost popped out

[pred174]

wow i got a boner so hard i dont think starring at a rosie o'donell poster would get it down......lol

[awsomeaussies]

Both look like modern pieces of crap to me.

Glad I wasn't the only one thinking that:o

Me... I don't know much about cars, but for looks... I like the Stang!

http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/awsomeaussies206/tungston.jpg

[Ghost-Rider]

Challenger without a doubt.

[dariusld]

well the challenger of course.
mainly cause it is supposed to kill them all with the powerhouse 6.1 they are supposed to have(i think)

[Bill Fuller]

I would say Challenger. If the Camaro looked more like a Camaro then it would be the Camaro but IMO it looks to much like a Cadillac. I wonder if there is a Trans AM/Firebird in the future?

[450rJam]

pred174........you need to get out on a date or something

I think about every post I have read of yours has a reference to your privates

[Rulz]

The 440 4 barrel was 375, the 440 6Pak were all rated at a very conservative 390.

[reptikes]

The Challenger will have a 6.6 Hemi. The 6.1 Hemi produces 425 horses and 420 lb of torque. Dodge wants the Challenger to be close to the 505 horses that the Corvette has, will see. The Camaro will have a 6.0-liter LS2 engine that features an aluminum block and heads for light weight, and Active Fuel Management, which shuts off four cylinders to save fuel when the engine is lightly loaded. The LS2 will produce atleast 400 horsepower, yet it could also deliver more than 30 mpg at highway speeds. Although different engineering companys want close to a 600hp version. Like how Saleen did the Mustang or how Lingenfelter did the Corvette.
Ethier way ill take the Camaro!

[atvRiDa400ex]

i cant stand the new look of the mustangs...but thats just me. they looked so much better older style!

Originally posted by 07250ex

I just came a little. :(

How about a v6 which pulls out 480hp and 500lbs of tourqe

what is it anyway?

[450rJam]

wow, the transam looks real mean. maybe its just the color but that is just crazy tuff looking.

at this point im going

#1 Trans-am

#2 Challenger

#3 new cobra

#4 new camaro

I grew up driving only chevy/ gm but in the last 5 years they have really dropped the ball in the design and power dept.
im sorry but that transam gave me a little hope

Besides the lights it looks damn close to the 60's interiors.

Camaro all the way. I hope to get one as soon as they come out. And if I do, there will be every generation Camaro in my family.

[450rJam]

the front end on the trans-am is (my opinion) 10 times better looking than the camaro/caddy front grill

the black with the bird really sets it off

[67mopar]

haha...hmmm tough choice for me.lol. CHALLENGER ALL THE WAY!!!!!!

Are you $hittn' me???!! You don't know what car that is???? It's the next generation Skyline, also known as the GT-R. It will blow everything else out of the water. And no, it's not a million dollar car, try $70K, HP numbers above are accurate and the best part, AWD!!

http://www.edmunds.com/il/nissan/skyline/index.html?mktcat=skyline-gt-r-general&kw=gt-r&mktid=ga28957256

[MX MaNiAc 06]

Im gonna have to go with that camaro! Im not into the stripes on the challenger.

[450rJam]

nissan ? come one now we are looking at retro muscle cars that we all dreamed about when we where growing up and that we drooled over at the local car shows.

you cant drop a nissan or a toyota on us

sure they run and handle but its not tire turning V8 growling torque out the *** able to sit a few friends and turn a million heads kind of car.

and at 70k ? im thinking the new challenger/camaro/t-a could be bought for 40ish ??

at 70k the nissan gtr isnt in the same market as the camaro/challenger.............thats closer to vette range

ok how about a supra at 40,000 you cant go wrong

2 diffrent engines

A v6 making about 350hp
A v8 making 450hp and 383lbs-ft of torque

[450rJam]

personally I liked the older supra's better

look at the new supra next to the nissan

Im just tired of the cookie cutter cars, they all look too much alike
the dull looking gto fits it also.

and it needs to be rear wheel drive (just my opinions)

im still hooked on that trans-am, if they build it I will buy one

[JOEX]

I thought this was about the Challenger and Camero:confused:

[450rJam]

give me some originality.............

67 vette
67 ac cobra
67 camaro
67 chevelle
67 mustang
67 gto
67 gtx
67 challenger

if one of these cars flew by at tripple digits there would be no mistaking them for each other..........................
they where all cool and all had their own look, their own unique
character
whats up ? are todays design engineers out of ideas ?

the last 15+ years of muscle cars have let me down a little
on the cool scale

[NPelletier]

the dodge, been drooling over it since i first saw the pic, was never really interested in the maro

[Flyin-Low]

Pfft, wouldn't everyone just rather have a REAL car like this?

I thought the same.... but an Import tries to sneak it's way in once in a while.

I'm wondering what colours the Challenger will come in . The orange with the stripe looks good and I wouldn't mind it like that , but I'm wondering if you'd be able to get it from the factory with black and a silver or gunmetal stripe ... I think it would look killer.

[gncc025]

to be honest i dont like either. the newer stuff just has to many curves and is too futuristic looking. kinda like some of the newer quads:ermm: . if i had to choose based on looks though, itd be the challenger. I just think its gonna to be hard to beat the way the older stuff looks.

OMG..that looks sexy!!:macho


and as for all of you saying..."I dont like the futureistic look of the vehicles"...were movin into the future whether you like it or not!

and the challenger looks almost the same as it did 30 years ago.
i dont see where you are getting FUTURISTIC from...maybe the camaro

[Quad18star]

Ahhh soooo sexy !!!!:D

It's too bad some of the features on the concept aren't going to make it into production . I love the lights on the Challenger , but Dodge says they aren't going to go with that style . :(
I hope the aftermarkets come out with this style of headlights, which I'm sure they will.

2008 can't come quick enough. :p
