Well, if it's any consolation, they really are the same car, and the Challenger is SOOO much better looking than the Charger is.

Horsepower wars? Its amazing the power these cars are getting and with the govt getting tighter with the mpg's in the future I wonder how long this will last.



I find it somewhat interesting comparing 1974 to now regarding emissions regulation and the power the engines put out.

Then: Engines made less power every year and met emissions.

Today: Engines make more power every year and still meet emissions.

These are great times for sure to be a gearhead. :D

it's still very heavy, though!


3464lbs?  That's not really heavy, or even heavy at all for that matter.  That's just not light yet.  And with a skid pad of .96g and braking of 104ft, who cares?  Those were numbers people raved about from recent gen Vettes.  An extra 200 lbs helps make it a more comfortable daily driver.

I'm stunned by the numbers this thing produces... MPG, HP, braking and handling, price.

Unbelievable.
