[NYCMille]

I'll follow this up with a full review, but just ya'll know... it's NICE 

[Khyron]

[rav440]

the new camaro still does nothing for me . once again i think chevrolet dropped the ball . while DODGE & FORD went with the COOL retro look on the CHALLENGER & MUSTANG , friggn chevy goes  space camp . the new CAMARO is beyond stupid looking the grill makes it look like its stoned out of its mind .  the same goes for chevys design team it looks like a bigger version of the ugly a$$ corvette .

they would have done alot better if they went with a retro style of the 67-69 camaro . justt my

I'm sure it's a very ergo ride inside but I do wish GM would rethink their steering wheel/wiper/signal controls/etc...  I could be blindfolded and would know I was in a GM ride.  Always reminds me of those big calculators that older folk use so they can see the numbers.  BIG BIG BIG.  I think they were just a little off on the cluster but understand what they were going for.

Looks really nice on the outside though.  I do appreciate the fact that they made an attempt to please the Chebbie crowd. 

Very interested in the write up.

Mike, how do you fit comfort wise in there?

While that certainly isn't the most attractive motor, it's nice to see they didn't put a big useless engine cover on it.

[bakerhillpins]

Im interested in what Mike has to say about it. 

I like the outside and thought they did a nice job with it. But that dashboard is just NASTY and stupid.  What the hell were they thinking? 

Oh well, Wasn't planning on buying a chevy anyhow.

[richard pettys 73]

i think it is stil a pretty sweet ride    if you can get z06 motor in it i would want to buy one 

[FJ571440B]

HEY EVERYONE,LOOK.....IT'S THE CHALLENGER WANNA BE! NOW THOSE OF US WITH GUNS CAN HAVE SOMETHING TO SHOOT AT!

[FJ571440B]

Nothing personal. 

[Foreman72]

the interior looks remarkably different then i thought it would...IMO its alien...i totally agree w u baker

[ChgrSteve67]

Can I have it for a week when you are done?

[Finn]

I dig it.

Would love to test drive back to back with the challenger.

[472 R/T SE]

I'll reserve judgement out of respect for those that really like it. 

[69bronzeT5]

Those things are pretty damn sweet

[billssuperbird]

 

[Fitz73Chrgr]

Man, some people are very opinionated about this thing, I think they're just mad GM did a better job than Chrysler!   

[WingCharger]

I am diggin' the dash, but otherwise... .

[keepat]

Mike,
I look forward to your review and how you compare it to the Challenger you tested 3 or 4 weeks ago!
Thanks!
Pat

[68r/t]

I love it, I think they look much better than the Challenger, the Challengers front looks to me as if it is frowning.

[Khyron]

Press car.

ahhh, then bring it up north so we can beat the shit out of it

[mauve66]

i think the chally is better looking retro wise but the front of the camero is ok too, its the taillights of the camero i can't stand, its like they forgot something and that dash doesn't look legible through that little wheel with all those spokes but maybe thats the angle...............

[dads_69]

Right on Mike. Press car, = drive the piss outa it! Ha....My brother in law ordered a white one, well he says he did. My sister doesn't know he has yet though, so we'll see what happends there.

[Khyron]

when she divorces him for buying it without her knowing can I get it at a discount?

I would check with my wife first though

[mikesbbody]

I cant wait to hear what Mike has to say since he has driven both Challenger, and the Camaro. I will always prefer the Challenger though 

[Tilar]

I'd have no problem driving that Camaro.

Bah, Where's your sense of adventure! Hell I bought a house without telling my (now ex) wife.    I think it was something to do with the "When you make enough money to make the decisions in this household, let me know" statement.

heheheh he shoots, he scores!

[Silver R/T]

ugly inside and out. I'll take that LS engine though.

[dads_69]

Well I'll say this much, buying cars/trucks w/o wife knowing everything up front runs in my family. I can't begin to tell you how many toys I've bought then told the wife afterwards yep, its mine or ours. Was she mad at the time, sometimes yes, but she got over it. I don't make or buy stupid things therefore never a problem in the end.
I'm waiting to hear back from my brother in law to confirm, I'll see him tomorrow for sure at dinner.
That's when I'm gonna break the news to my wife about my latest purchase on another Lightning. 
Do it front to family, that way she can't kill me w/witnesses present. 
Mark

[Tilar]

I've always been that way. Maybe there's such a thing as being too independent but I haven't reached that level yet.    That house that I bought was a really good deal and I figured I'd rent it out for a little extra income. Once she saw the house though, she wanted to move into it and rent the house we were living in.

Umm...

Do'oh! 

That would be my first engine mod!

[jb666]

I like the new Camaro..

I LOVE the new Challenger

That is one ugly motor. Love the car otherwise, not sure about the plasticy dash area.

[69*F5*SE]

Would I own one?  Sure!  Can I own one?  F@#k no.   

[Mopar440+6]

Honestly, I like it. I'm a Mopar guy through and through but I like that car. I've been considering getting a Chally as a daily driver after I graduate but if I drove one of the new Camaros and felt like it was the better handling/driving/etc car I'd take one in a heartbeat...

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

Say what you will, but this thing moves...


http://videos.streetfire.net/video/2010-Camaro_645732.htm

Cool to see you had cops on your side for that one....I bet they prompted it as well

Say what you will guys I'd love to get one of those!!

Who else thinks Mike has the coolest job?

I DO AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHERE I CAN SIGHN UP TO GET THAT JOB.......DOES IT PAY WELL? 

[NYCMille]

I'll tell ya' the Camaro is a great car - in fact I'm just finishing up my full review that will be on Cardomain.com, probably later today or Monday - I'll post it up when it's done. What I can say quickly is that the Challenger is more of an executive muscle car, where the Camaro is more a back roads brawler. They are both great cars with pro's and con's to each of them. If I had to buy on though it would be the SRT-8 Challenger. It's bigger, more comfortable with better visibility and ride. The Camaro however will out handle it - again, two different muscle cars with two completely different personalities.

I'll post more soon - here is a quick video review though.

[Harlow]

Wow, thats awesome. I never liked the new challenger's rear end. The camaro looks great. For some reason it looks more retro to me. 

[mikepmcs]

"Punches you in the face"

You should be selling some of these aftermarket parts for these newer brawlers, like the mustang, camaro, challengers, etc.....diablo, magnaflow, qtp, k&n.  You could test the parts out on cars and give real world feedback.  I know I'd lend you my Challenger for some testing if need be.

I'd rather give my money to somebody I trust on this site, than just anyone.

wow...that is pretty smokin...
