Sorry guys, this is what you really wanted to see. My Dad's Camaro, brothers Challenger, and well you know the other one.

G8 is the BEST LOOKING! Hands Down.

I'd be happy to own any of 'em...though the G8 is the classiest. The Challenger has that original appeal you can't help but love. And the Camaro, whether you love it or hate it, it stands out. I'm quite happy with my ride though :)

That last pic, the Chally has got be be dealing with an inferiority complex. :)



And yes, the G8 is greater than them all. :poof:

This is a GREAT picture. Think about it... in 20 years it's going to signs of the times. The last of the great muscle cars.

I agree. I figured I would get all the cars together for a photo shoot during Labor Day weekend. My brother is getting rid of the Challenger in a month.

What never ceases to amaze me is how much smaller the G8 form and sheet metal looks compared to the others. Then you get in the rascal and its huge. Some kind of reality warp going on.

Kind of like the TARDIS. (Time And Relative Dimension In Space)

Funny you should post those pictures. On the other side of the country I had an Orange Hemi park next to my Stealth Blue at the MotorGen Meet last nite.

this is a good thread. the original Challenger didn't do it for me, but this new one is growing on me every day. definitely needs to go on a diet, tho.

and i was just walking around the G8 tonight thinking how almost svelte and small it appears; i had to stop and remind myself how big it truly is.

For some reason I like your avatar....

Some good looking cars there. I really like the challenger a lot, but when you see the interior....not so much. The mustang has the best interior of the three hands down. Gotta love our 4 dr sport sedans!

Of all the mustangs I've seen, I don't think I've yet to see the inside of one...save for a new GT500 at the track, but that was heavily modified.

You have to get inside the new Mustang to appreciate it. The materials are much better than anything that's ever been in a muscle/pony car.

it's sad that it has been acknowledged and it pains me to no end to agree, but the new Bustang has the best interior.

any of the Mopars = sort of ok, but super bland interior; the materials are only average but the layout of the IP is like they sat down with a puzzle where every corner was a 90* angle and simply started stacking them up and down with no razzle-dazzle of height or driver-stack relationship consideration

as incessantly linear as the Challenger is, the Camaro is just a little too juvenile to this 33-yo. the wide swath of nothingness that is the passenger-side view reminds me of some of the rural Indiana barns i had to paint as a teen. with zero disrespect to our forum comrades, the radio and the 4-pack look like they came out of a Crutchfield catalogue; the Audiovox section. am guessing the guy responsible for the "blue ice" lighting in the Lacrosse had a hand in the gauge & radio lighting.

the current Moostang kept a similar theme and even stole a small page - no, make that a paragraph of a page - from Volvo's waterfall design. the big change isn't the interface, it's the quality of materials (as mentioned ^). still not digging the gauge font; some retro items are better left in the past.

this, of course, is a long way of saying i agree with The Commodore.

I agree with G VIII, about the Camaro. It just seems too juvenile in some respects. Don't get me wrong, I like the Camaro and actually own a 1969, but the G8 does it for me. I've actually nearly forgotten about the '69 since I bought the G8. The G8 has a certain classiness to it that that the others just don't have. Sleek and sophisticated, but ready to kick ass when called for duty. I'm just glad the G8 exists, otherwise I'd likely be a 2010 Camaro owner.
