Have to admit that this was cool:

Everyone here knows that I've not been a big fan of the new Dodge Challenger, that was until today when I saw one in white. Vanishing Point car. It didn't hurt that the driver was a nice brunette w/ the windows down listening to Jojo Gunn.

I know, I know... She was cool but it's one thing to ask if I can take a photo of your car and another to ask her to flash her cans for my Pelican brothers. Car was way cool:

It still looks piggy to me, Denis, although, it's not as stupid looking as the new Camaro. Totally bugly.

I wonder if the brunette had a big butt to match her car's. Re the new Camaro, I read that, with the slammed roof, fuggedabowdit if you're over 5'11".

I like the look of the Camaro WAYYYYY better.

Plus it's several hundred pounds lighter than the Challenger.

She does have a nice wrist. I think she is smoking and has a dog on her lap, cell phone at the ready and a starbucks in the cupholder. I hope that hemi doesn't get away from her.

I saw the new Camaro on the road yesterday. Ugly as sin. I prefer the Challenger.

But I'm happy with my 911!

+1 for asking the chicky babe to show her cans!

The proportions on that thing are terrible. The rear looks as high as it is wide. I passed one in my 911 and it felt like I am looking up to a crossover SUV ...

Dude, you must subscribe to the special right-wing google. This is Jo Jo Gunne:

(I did miss-spell it though by not separating "Jo Jo".

The lead singer of Jo JO Gunn was the lead singer for Spirit of 60's fame..Jay Ferguson..met him once while backstage..during the soundcheck. Along with Ray Davies of the Kinks...

I like the new challenger, I like the retro look of it. Allthough I think it is a bit heavy...but the orginal wasn't lite either.

I saw a black SRT8 today that had been lowered and it looked much better. It still had the stock wheels on it, but with it lowered it didn't look so heavy and the rear didn't look so tall. It really made a huge difference, kinda like how a 993 looks so much better when it's lowered then how they were delivered stock.

Guys, get a copy of the July Car & Driver...a comparison test between Mustang, Camaro, and Challenger. A fun read. If anybody's thinking V-8 power, consider the new CAFE rules.

I'd get a Mustang over either the Camaro or Challenger. First of all, it's rated as a better car. Secondly, places still exist where the Mustang can be taken for repairs.
