Having also driven the Mustang, I'd go for that.... can't comment on the Challenger
I'm around 5'8 as well, thanks for the heads up. (i only test drove for about 10 mins so I didn't get a real "environment" for the car because the salesman kept yapping) and sorta distracted me from observing most of the aspects of the interior.

My opinion is the same as everyone else's. Get the stang not only because of it's performance, but it also has better visibility, storage space and interior ergomics. It's just a vastly superior car all round, especially for daily driving.

if you buy a 5.0 Stang, wait a model year and grab a 2012

2011's already have issues with sticking clutch pedals and gas pedals

wait for a TSB to be issued

bloodmack 02-14-2011 02:45 PM
I would go for a mustang but since thats not your choice.. RT challenger (why not SRT?) SS camaro is nice and all but the more I see them the more I start to dislike them.

White SRT challenger FTW.

i would take the camaro, the only downside really is that i find it isnt as nice looking as the challenger. But in its own right it is a great looking car. Personally, I am looking at buying a 05-06 GTO which isnt the best looking car but I just love it.

if you do get the stang in auto, one thing i do recommend is getting an sct tuner. if theres one thing i dont like about the auto is the shift points there way too far apart, and with the tuner it improves the shift points.

just my 2cents since i got an 08 gt in auto which i love to death.

busdriverman 02-14-2011 06:10 PM
i really think you should consider driving the stang man

the interior is nice, and i believe the blind spots are not as large

if it comes down to the challenger and the camaro, i would say camaro. the exterior does not look as bulky and clumsy, and because it is slightly smaller, door dings and scratches are a lesser risk. the challenger looks really large and clumsy to me

5 bucks says when 2012 finally rolls around, the guy will end up buying a Fiesta or something.

Right when gas hits $1.50+ :)

Get it now.

Gas will only get more expensive especially when you rocking a 5.0 / 5.7 / 6.2 L

have a look at Charger SRT8, i know it's not a coupe but it still looks pretty good ;)

I fucking love the new Camaro. I don't know if I could ever get myself to actually buy one, but nonetheless.

Isn't it the opposite logic? The price of these cars (especially used) will drop when gas hits $1.50. I'm sure it will be this summer...
