Its an American muscle car...its big, brutish, and loud. Thats the way its supposed to be. It doesnt, nor should it, be compared to any ricerocket or euro sedan.
I like the new Challenger RT. Its just too expensive. The original spirit of the muscle car was a big motor and some hi-po goodies in a cheap car...all for a few bucks more then grandmas sedan.
I wish they (Mopar) would revive that concept.

I have owned many of the real 60's muscle Mopars....including a 1970 Challenger RT with a hilborn injected hemi stuffed in it. Damn...I miss those days....
