Fuel Injectors Three times
Fuel Pump
Fuel Pump Solenoid
1 Cat. Convertor
Starter

I just got a letter from ford saying the waranty on the injectors was extended to 11 years(i think i'd have to look)
Thats with less than 30k on it

The challenger looks better than the camaro, the camaro just doesnt do it for me, at all...

I might have to go with the challenger with the 6 speed manaul.... and as some of you know, I'm not really a mopar fan...

hmmm yea... i definitely like both... I think the Camaro looks great... And if they keep the Challenger the way it looks now then yea! Def edges out the camaro by a small margin...

They are saying Base MSRP for a 250hp v6 is $21,695 which is surprising... must be the high gas prices that have forced them to do that.

I was thinking about the Camaro Convertible SS when it comes available. By that time I will be completely debt free and ready to purchase big. If the Challenger RT came in a convertible, I would probably go that route. I just love the look of the challenger.

If I can't wait for high performance, I would probably let Michael turbo my Mark VIII

I think the camaro looksbetter than the challenger, but I would have to give the nod to the challenger. In the 70's Chrysler was the muscle car era. I do know this is no longer the 70's but I still dig the challenger.

The Camaro is nice and looks, to me at least, just like the late 60's. I saw one the other day in London. Instant Viagra, it was so beautiful and sexy. But I would still go with the Challenger.

I like the Chrysler bloodline,

Anyone who hasn't seen them should check out the Phantasm movies and also Vanishing Point, chrysler musta really paid for those movies.

That's one thing that just bugs me about all these 'retro' cars that are coming out lately.

Sure, use the 'retro' design, but it would also be cool if they used some new technologies to go with these designs.

they should have LED tail lights for sure, HID or even the really new LED headlights similar to what Lexus is trying out.

It just be cool to have the old look, but also utilize many of the new things out today. light bulbs should really be about dead in auto applications, but they are still being used

^^^ who knows some day they will do the right thing, but even the challenger is going to utilize the crappy halogens like every other car...
