One of the Engineers is driving it. SS model with a 6.0L and a 6spd. Has a real VIN on it so it's a production version. There is a Non-production silver Camaro around oshawa with a Z06 7.0L 505 Hp motor. It has RS badges on it , but GM perf Zo6 badged ont he front fenders (where the camaro would be) It sounds like a angry dump truck.

Yea, I work for GM

Eh, I don't think they look too bad.

Would rather see those than the mustang I've seen a billion times. Challengers are pretty nice-looking, but the cheap base-model some dude at work has made me start to dislike them due to how plain his looks :(

There's a video on streetfre of a guy who took a brand new one and had it built with twn blowers, cam, etc. Sounds like sex.

I worked for chrysler on the ad campaign for the new Challenger a little over a year ago. Between the 2 cars (style wise) I think the challenger wins, but there are some guys who are biased and will just get a chevy

I think both cars at 3800-4000 Lbs do a great job of selling a 2005 + Mustang GT. IT's 300-500 Lb less , sure it's got no IRS , but it's 12 grand used and I think does a better job capturing the look then the camaro... Im not even a dodge guy and the Challenger is pure sex.... nicely based on a E class as well.

I like the retromod nostalgia thing, but I think the Mustang does the poorest job of capturing the styling. I like the previous bodystyle best.

I don't know a whole lot about the newer Dodges. Meh.

Yes because all the new cars the other companies are coming out with look 10X better :l

Yeah me too. I would be happy with a 68 Camaro clone with a little rounder edges and updated interior/engine. Leave everything else alone.
