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. Posted via RS Mobile | |

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

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. http://www.challengernut.com/

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.

Posted via RS Mobile | 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.

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

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

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