I've never understood their logic in the road testing of two cars. They lean heavy towards euros and then I guess they meet and decide which one they will choose. Then add whatever tests they need to meet those anticipated results. Performance the snake wins hands down. But I would love a test of a 6-speed SRT-8 and see how much closer the results would be. And I would say ride quality goes to the SRT-8 no doubt. Everything I have read says this to be true. And the car being bigger helps in that dept.
Looks... goes to SRT-8. Its retro and new. The Ford is wearing so this also goes to the Challenger. Cool factor... a tie! I'd drive either and it would make me look better
But being a Mopar guy I'd take the Challenger any day of the week
