Smile 2009 Camaro v. 2009 Challenger

Now that we have the new silver pics of the 09 camaro which new muscle car will garner your hard earned currency? The 09 Challenger or the 09 camaro?

SS model with the LS7 will get my money. The LS2 is not much better than my current LS1 powered car especially with all my mods. If there is no LS7 It will probably be a Shelby. Challenger is too heavy and doesn't have forced induction. The GT500 is heavy but it has a 5.4 SC under the hood and will be just as moddable as the 03 cobras which equals trouble for anything less than an Ls7 powered Camaro as far as stock to lightly modded goes.

An LS2 or LS7 camaro will get my cash. Doesn't matter to me which engine it has, it's not staying stock anyway.

Is there anyway to put a poll on this thing? I originally had a poll that asked 09 Camaro or Challenger but I think Shelby would be nice to add as well. Can you do that, mods? For some reason while I was making this thread my PC jammed and the internet would not work. If someone can fix this I would really appreciate it!!! Thanks!!!

Shelby or Challenger.

No Camaro for me, I don't like it all at. I guess I can wait till tomorrow to say whether or not I truly hate it though.

Camaro here, of course...I just dont think that the Dodges have ever had the same appeal. Thats just my opinion though.

As much as I despise car payments I'll actually go into debt for that on 2 conditions. 1 the egg crate grill can be removed and 2 they paint it a true Hugga Orange and slap some white stripes on it and sell as a 1LE option.
