Default Camaro VS Challenger

Well, after seeing both in person I can honestly say that I like this better


than this.


The Camaro had a better stance and looked more finished. The Challenger is a big car. At 197 inches it is far from small although they stated that the production one would be shorter. I love that Camaro.

The challenger looks to plain to me.. It almost looks to much like the old car i guess. I wasnt crazy about the new Camaro when i first saw it but its starting to grow on me

Camaro takes best in show in my book. The Challenger has that Mopar high stance to in like the old 70's cars did, I guess they were looking into more ground clearance or something.

Too nostalgic for me. I like the Camaro because it has lines of the 69' but it is done in a modern theme like the Stang.

Challenger in my book. It's different. The Camaro looks like every other protype car at the show. Only thing I didn't like on the Challenger were those little tires. Look like 7" wide wheels. Don't know if there was enough room back there to put some proper 10" wheels on.

The show was alright...but the woman walking around the show were my favorite. Why girls decide to wear 4" heels and tight shirts to an Auto show is beyond me....but god bless those little tramps for doing it.

I was talking to one of the metal model makers from the Tech Center and he said the final production version of the Camaro will almost look like the concept, minus front clip. He says theyre rounding off the front instead of pointing it for the production model.
