I hate to even type this but the Challenger gets my vote. The pics I have seen of the Camaro were disappointing.

Well, the Ford is out. It's between the Camaro & Challenger in my book. I'd have to see them in person to decide, so I didn't vote.. First impression is the Dodge. But it might look too much like an earlier one.

I hope they are all at the Philly IAS in February.

There's a nice spread on the Challenger in the Feb. Car and Driver. I'll hold my vote until I see real pics of the Camaro instead of the mock ups. They estimate the Challengers price tag to be at 35K. A little much if you as me. 425 hp with time estimates of 13.0 1/4 with 4.5 0-60

had to vote for the challenger, it's pretty, and it's real, unless C&D pushed the clay out in the fields to shoot, and airburshed in the tire smoke.
can't wait to see the real camaro in detroit!

Challenger all the way, hands down - but had you included the 'cuda, that would have gotten my vote - so far, Ford and Mopar have got it figured out.

Def-in-ate-ly the 'Cuda, it looks BETTER than the original. I will probably trade in the stang for one!

I keep waiting for the "gotcha" on the 09 camaro. Surely they will not actually produce that cadillac, um, I mean that camaro? (My wife has a Cadillac CTS, and I do like it, but not as a muscle car). Keep waiting for the Naw...... Here's the real 09 Camaro.

Hadn't heard about the 'Cuda yet - what's it's status? Production scheduled for some point?

Looks like some great cars coming out in the next few years that will eat the ricers.

I don't actually have any real info on the 'cuda except that I read somewhere it was also scheduled to come out around 09. I doubt it though, I don't think they would offer up both the challenger and 'cuda at the same time - we could only be so lucky. Although, correct me if Im wrong, but the challenger and cuda were basically the same thing, kinda like Camaro / Firebird, so maybe they will do it again in 09. I told myself I'd never buy a new car again after my tahoe - but if the price is even close to sane, one of those mopars will be mine um, of course, thats if the Camaro looks anything like the concept.

I'd vote for the 'Cuda if it was on the list. The Rustang is already done. I mean it's basically an '05 with some trim. The Challenger is very cool, but it's almost too true to the original. (Looks almost like a Foose resto-rod.) And I have to agree with rich pern. That version of the Camaro is way too "Cadillac" for me. I'm hopping for one of the other concepts of the Camaro though.

Challenger, no question. The 'Camaro' doesn't look anything like a Camaro. I hope some Chevy engineers are taking note of this thread.
