    "So, to sum up: The Challenger has a more advanced suspension, superior ride, incredible brakes, a more gratifying engine, a better-crafted interior, and posts similar numbers. The Mustang is more adrenal, currently has better steering, and can play the guitar solo to Stairway to Heaven while administering a roundhouse kick to your face. The GT500 is rough and raw, while the SRT8 is a very powerful, very competent cruiser. This test has turned out to be a fair illustration of the differences between a muscle car based on an intermediate body and one based on a pony-car platform. If you want a high-strung, nine-testicled pet, get a GT500; if you want a chilled-out muscle car you can drive everyday, put your name on the Challenger waiting list."

    Great write-up...

    lmao at this quote:

    Too bad the interior has been whipped into submission by the accounting department. There's enough cardboard, mood lighting, and cheap leather in here to fill a sex shop.

    ROFL.

    Hard choice, but those that know me know what I'd pick, so I'll keep my yap shut so I don't get thrown off the board. I will say this, though, when I saw a Challenger in person, my pants did get tight.

    My guess is (unless the Challenger turns out to be the best selling car ever) their building the Challenger pretty much eliminates any chance of seeing a factory Cuda.
