i always wanted a Camaro but I'm doing pretty well in my career so maybe i'll go with corvette when I'm 50. either way when I'm 50 and my last kid is off to college it's straight to the car dealer. By the way when i was 20 I had a Chevrolet chevette, the thing had no brakes i don't know how i drove to work on the highway every day. But I used to tell people I had a 'vette.
Mustang, but I may be a little biased
Nice ride!
Mine doesn't get nearly as much use as it once did, mainly lives in the garage now

Mine has the same wheels but mine are all silver, but the are the same 'bullitt style' ones.
I used to like them more when I got them, the rears have a deeper dish than the fronts. I like the smaller lip on the fronts more.
Challenger for looks.
Mustang for performance.
Camaro....Doesn't look as good as the Challenger or Mustang and doesn't outperform either of those as well.
If i had to choose i believe I'd end up with the Mustang as it looks good and is a beast performance wise. The challenger SRT8 Has almost 50 more HP's but the car is too damn heavy.
I myself drive a 2013 Charger RT. I couldn't afford an SRT so this was a good substitute and i have no regrets. Fully loaded i couldn't ask for anything extra!
Ill see if i can grab a pic sometime.

I agree whole heartedly. Love the the 11+ Stang, looks and performance wise. GM has always had stellar powertrains, just not anything good in the visuals IMHO, Vettes excluded, and the current Camaro is the same. I was never a Mopar guy, however, the new Challenger is pretty sweet, easily the best looking of the "retro" designs.
Mustangs, but im into Euro tuning, im on my second VW, 2006 GTI. I want a early 90's BMW next time around.
new stingray is the ballz, my wife actually commented on how good it looks and she hates that stuff
Didn’t vote, here’s why. I grew up in SoCal, got my “official” license in 75. The cruising and the racing! Gas still smelled good. Hell, racing gas was better than Old Spice in some instances. American Muscle was everywhere. 50s-60s iron was cheap and rust free. Some used euro iron was to be had if you had the correct tools. My list of iron is long and proud and I could never choose between or become “branded”. Lots of folks are brand loyal and fierce about it. Just makes the racing more fun. Truth be told, the most fun I have ever had in a car was on the low mu skid pad in Santa Maria. Swapping ends in a late 80s Honda civic wagon (Total Recall, Johnny Cab Scene.) The kids stuck to the glass at about 2gs like Garfield toys screaming “faster daddy”. Right place at the right time. Remember, Run what you brung.

since my car is not a GT, my front and rear wheels are about the same size so I do not have that 'deep dish' style outer rim on my back ones, but it still a 17" rim on some big and wide Pirellis

Nice. I have some big and wide BFGs on the car now. Dry traction is superb and wet is pretty decent but, with the crazy tread pattern they're loud as hell. Def. wouldn't buy them again for that one reason.
