Howdy, welcome to the Forum. I just purchased a new R/T and love it. Is it perfect? no. No muscle car is perfect but it has plenty of opportunities to be modified and changed. I looked at the Camaro (too over stylized) and Mustang GT (hate the solid rear axle). I traded in a 06 GTO and am glad I made the change. I miss the GTO but really enjoy driving the Challenger.
