I for one find it interesting that things like this get into modding and which car is faster and all of that drivel. The simple fact was that a statement was made that the Mustang GT and the Challenger RT are closely matched. This may or may not be true but then it denegrates into adding turbo's, blower's and assorted other addon crap. I own a Mustang GT (okay its the wifes 06) bone stock and I do drive it when I can and enjoy it. The power is great, the car handles really good around town and it is a fun car to drive. No, before you ask I have not driven any Challengers at all so I cannot compare. However, I can and will say while the Mustang is fun to drive, I sure wouldnt want to take it on a long drive as the suspension is tight and will beat your guts to death over a long haul. Now, this is my opinion. The Challenger being a larger car and other points will make it a better car to drive long distance and for me, this makes it a nicer car to drive for long periods of time. Will it be faster or better in town? Well, we can only base things on what we hear from others and their cars or what we do and see with our cars so that is the base to make a judgement about. Whose faster? Find a track, take the cars and wear them out plain and simple. People want to run their pieholes about fast, faster, and fastest, well pony up, pull alongside, catch the lights and settle it. Geez, this is a CHALLENGER forum, Mopar owners, fans and devotees are gong to be in attendance. You want to extole the virtues of Mustangs, Camaro's ricers, etc. then go to those forums and enjoy. Yes we can discuss which is better, faster, able to leap small curbs etc. but geez folks, lets be adults about it.
