New Muscle Cars: 09 Dodge Challenger vs 10 Chevy Camaro
Ok car guys and gals, we all know what he resto looking Mustang has done for pony cars. Now we are ready for next pony wars; bring in the new Challenger and Camaro. Katrina and I have had the opportunity to see both of these new cars in person out in the daylight and tell you, wow.
I think I like the Camaro a little better but that Challenger is great and it has a Hemi!
Here are some photos to help you figure out which one you like best. Send me an email and I will keep an informal tally.
Mopar guys here it is; the new Dodge Challenger: I think this car is a terrific update of the original 1970 Challenger. Almost too much so. I actually almost missed seeing this because at first glance it looked too much like an original car. If you park them side by side I am sure the original car will look significantly different and very dated, but what you see in the new car is almost what you remember in the original Challenger. Here are a couple of photos of a black Challenger and more of the red Challenger. I like red, or even better, Hemi Orange!
Bow tie guys get ready, here is your car, the new Camaro: Now this car looks new from every angle but you still know it’s a Camaro. Its lines are fresh but just like in the old days it has this strong family resemblance to the Corvette. I predict this car is going to be a terrific alternative to the guy who no longer wants to spend the family fortune to buy a new Corvette but like the brand. This car will never be mistaken for an old Camaro but its heritage is alive and well.

The challengers are way too nice. I can’t do the camaro’s grille, just doesn’t sit well with me. I know the challeger’s 0-60 are low 5s, but don’t know the camaro’s. For the 1st time, I choose black over red. That black picture of the challenger is a classic
For classic looks, MOPAR wins hands down. And it’s got a hemi! . I wanted to vote for the Camaro, having a new one in ‘68 but it falls short. (IMHO)
Haven’t driven the Hemi yet but the Camaro is a sweet ride.
If you can’t see it ,your eyes are not open. The Camaro is miles ahead of those challengers. Look at the body lines,pure sweetness !!!
