I want a Challenger R/T. I'm currently in duscussion with my fiance' to see if we might be able to swing it once I get my GT paid off. The best part of the new Challenger is how nice the exterior looks. I think of the "retro" pony/muscle cars out now it has the best exterior. The GT has the best interior as far as in keeping with the retro spirit goes.

IMO overall it goes something like this: Challenger > Mustang > Camaro > Charger > GTO. As far as exterior looks goes.

The new R/T with the power bump should hopefully be able to match a stock GT. I think the times we have seen quoted so far are a little on the conservative side. That said, if you have some idea in your mind about "smoking" a GT with your R/T - you are drinking some serious kool-aid. Because the two cars are close enough that it's gonna be a pretty tough call. I do know for a fact that the GT can do mid 13's in completely stock form. I've seen the proof.

Let's not bring "computer tunes" and modifications into performance comparisons if at all possible. Because most of us here are smart enough to know that the Mustang is just as capable of getting a boost in power from a $300 computer tune as an R/T.

If my fiance' and I are able to swing it we'll be getting a Challenger R/T in the next couple years. This time I am not getting a black car though. One is enough. Maybe silver with a black stripe.
