Yes, please.  I'd like this colour combo to become available once again.



That is a striking package.

Oh baby yes we have a winner. The Challenger would be my pick. Don't give a rats ass about the handling difference between them...I want the meanest looking, meanest sounding car.

I really love that Chryco stuck to the American Muscle theme with it. The Mustang has gone a bit Eurosnob.

With the Challenger you and Ponyboy can go mess up some Socs after you're done at the Drive In.

I'd have to defer on the Camaro until I see it in the flesh, the current one, like many others have noted, is just not quite right.  The interior is gawd awful, and cramped, and the trunk opening is ridiculously small.  If you have to twist and turn a carry-on bag to fit it in something isn't right.

If I occasionally were to have more than 2 in the car, spent time cruising, Challenger.  The older I get the less interested I am at driving at 10/10ths.

392 Scat for me

I'd buy the one with the highest resale value.

I'd probably choose the Mustang.  I like the looks and brawn of the Challenger, but not sure it would be right for the twisty roads around here and the looks of the current Camaro don't really appeal to me that much.  I'll reserve opinion on the new Camaro until I see it in the flesh.  Just conjecture though as I haven't driven any of them and incentives and resale would figure into it as well I suppose.

I drove the SS Camaro a couple of years ago and thought it was quite capable.  But not being a big fan of the exterior styling and the absolute horrible interior quality would be a deal breaker for me.  I'm not sure if the interior quality has improved in the last couple of years though.

I'm a huge fan of the new Mustang GT with the Perf Pkg, but this one's a more visceral machine, especially with the sidepipe plates removed.  ;)

i'd be pretty happy with any of them, but stang or challenger preferred... for real life, challenger. seems like a special car whereas the mustang has become a little more commonplace it would seem... has more room for gear/family... the negatives wouldn't really be an issue for me.

stayed away due to craziness in here... we done with that? well.. a little crazy is just fine.

I can't wait for more of these videos to start rolling out.  Never get tired of them.  Hopefully that One Take guy will do one...but make it a good half hour long drive in the twisty's of California. Not just a 2 minute tease.
GT350R  :love:

Never saw any appeal in the Camaro! The interior feels very cheap and does not warrant a comparison to the Challenger or Mustang! Most customers I have sold a Mustang to love the redesign, the 5.0L is definitely a beast and although I may be a little biased  ;) It's my pick!

THIS Camaro really, really, really appeals to me.  Most testers report it's got one of the best chassis' of any car, period.

Choosing a car based on reliability is like choosing a wife based solely because she is punctual. There is more to it than that...

Okay THAT is a car I totally agree with you. I was referring to the more contemporary take on the vehicle.

The Mustang really is a Sports Car , the Camaro with high front , back and poor visibility , appears to be more a muscle car , except for say a Z28 option . in my opinion . The new 2016 flat plane V8 Mustang , to me , would be an incredible blast to drive fast and also be a Sunday driver....beam me up Scottie !
