I kinda like the way it looks. It's everything else about it I don't like.

I agree, I don't think it looks good at all.

i really love the challenger -- i think it's that raised up rear end that really does it for me.

I'd take that over a camaro or a mustang. I'm not racing anyone, not a race at driver either. It's not about published stats or phony bragging rights. The car just looks way more awesome & should you feel like stepping on the gas a bit - you know what's under the hood...

I like the styling of the Challenger, but it's a lot bigger than what I think it could/should be, it's menacing in SRT trim though.

I think the new Mustang would be my choice of the 3.

$68k is a lot for a Mustang though.

I've not liked the Mustang since somewhere around the 1968 version. I WANT to love the Challenger. It is VERY pretty. It's just too damn big for my taste. I test drove one again recently, and I do really like it, just not enough to buy it. Of the three, I would absolutely have a Camaro. There are some ZL1s in my price range, that are semi-close to here. But I don't like it enough to spend 'vette money on a Camaro. :/
