    The challenger can keep this same design for 500yrs and i will never complain. I think they hit the nail on the head with mixing modern and classic.

      Agreed. They should focus on more tech or interior for future models but leave that look with a few tweaks!

      I agree 100% with you. It stands out of the three. It is the only one that really looks like a muscle car. For me it is the ultimate muscle car. I really like all 3 of them. But the mustang and the camaro look less like muscle cars with their new looks. I think that the challenger looks much better.

      I was at work thinking. What if the mustang goes back to their older large model? Like a updated version of the 1967 .. 🚗 Might be something. Add a awd ? Nice

      Totally agree...I've been a ford mustang Cobra Shelby guy forever, but the Dobge Challenger made me jump ship with the retro look...keep the look but continue to improve the indoor tech. Just an awesome Dude looking car. Never been a Chevy Camaro guy...always wished for the return of the Thunderbird but that's not gonna happen. Unfortunately, the mustang just doesn't have that nestalgia sticker on it Dodge definitely does reminds me when I was like 6...

      @VermillionRacing 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@coachtreyston if you're looking between the camaro and challenger, I'd go camaro. But you also gotta think about practicality to a certain degree. The challenger is MUCH much bigger on the inside, has good storage, but is slower because of its weight. The camaro is tiny in the interior and has little storage. The interiors are both wonderful, but I feel the camaro Is just ever so slightly better in its feel and design. Now personally between them all, I'd go with the mustang. Its the in between of the camaro and challenger, it's the fastest of the 3 usually (comparing to the 4cyl camaro), has the medium sized interior, a large trunk, and usable back seats. So it's the middle ground of the other two. Also to note, the camaro and mustang handle a lot better than the challenger.

The Camaros have minor things like the paint on the interior chipping and the window tint peeling. I didn’t drive the chargers or challengers all that much, but from what I’ve heard from friends they’re really good and don’t break all that easy. In fact none of them do.

    Glad to see someone covering the base model options. I am shopping for what will probably be my last car, and planning to pay cash so every dime counts. Initially, I approached the situation with the idea in mind that I was going to buy a V8 or nothing as I have always driven V8 powered cars. My current car is an 04 Mustang GT with the 2V 4.6L.
    Apparently, I’ve been out of the loop for too long because I had no idea that these newer V6 powered cars were putting down the kinds of numbers that they are. A V6 putting down 300+ horsepower is amazing to me. Perhaps to a lot of younger folks these cars aren’t impressive, but to me they are plenty powerful enough for anything I would intend to use them for.
    There is a fair to moderate chance that I may go with a slightly older SS or GT just so that I don’t miss the sound of the V8 engine. I definitely want to drive at least the V6 Camaro before I spend my money though. If it runs at least as hard as my current car, I’ll be a buyer.

    Thanks for your unbiased review! I've rented the Mustang on several occasions whenever I visited Hawaii. Then earlier this summer I rented a 2019 Camaro SS convertible and drove it across WA state to check out some houses in Idaho (getting out of crazy Washington). I must say, the Camaro was a nicer ride in my opinion. If you ever need some road therapy (going through a separation after 24 years of marriage), rent a Camaro convertible, find a nice stretch of empty highway, and hit the triple digits. Flying past a huge group of bikers at 130mph felt so invigorating. :D Great way to de-stress, if you know how to handle a car. When I got back from my trip, I bought one. Love it.

    The Challenger is the quintessential muscle car. The gap between the three isn't huge at the base models but when you start to get into hellcats and demons there is no competition for the challenger.

    • @billymania11
      @billymania11 ปีที่แล้ว

      The Challenger and Charger are based on the Mercedes S class chassis which was very good but very heavy. They also inherited the IRS rear. I've never ridden in either but with correct valving and damping, they should be very nice cars to ride in.

    Yep you are right Racerx, the smaller displacements are the big volume sales for all of them combined. For instance, FCA sales more six bangers than RTs and are a lot more of them sold than Scat pks, SRTs & even less hellcats for that matter. A lot more people can afford sixes then V8 powered cars, and is how it's always been. Challenger looks best out of them all, but needs to be at least a Scat considering the weight factor and is the only true muscle car remaining in the segment

      Yeah I understand what you mean the cheap plastic on the inside of the doors that easily scratched by fingernails in a camaro and the tail lights are what did it for me. Plus smaller windshield and room to see, its also not big guy friendly (not fat just I'm 6ft and in camaro my head almost touches roof). I was going to go with a SS camaro until I did research and decided last good looking one was 2013 model because of the tail end looked good. I looked at mustang but everyone has one its over hyped and they want WAY too much for the gt350 or gt500. Also compared to the others it looks like the dash has way less features its like bare bones. I went with a 2016 scat pack I couldn't afford a new one, now I regret I didnt get a Hellcat I just itch for more power lol. Challenger for the win! I dont go charger because if I wanted a sedan I would get a eco car. Also cops have chargers I wanna be different. Challenger all the way. I get atleast one compliment every trip out I take in it. I currently dont have badges on mine though so theres always cars like in this video that try to show off to me trying to race lol I love leaving them in the dust they have no clue I got a scat.
