I seem to remember the last time we did this...that Cuda's were the overwhelming winner.

Ok! The way I see it, Challengers are for the girlly men.  They are pretty cars with all thier curves, lines, chrome, and flip top gas cap.  Kind of like a hot chick in lingere. : )
Now the Cudas are sleak, simple,  and tough looking.  If you want to show attitude and pure muscle, you should be driving a Cuda, not a girlly car. ; )

Btw, put April's pink Cuda up against a pink Challenger and see which one looks girly and which one looks tough.  I know where my vote is... April!

Who us? lol

Actually, Me and MEK were out cruising last night and heard some screams of dancing and fun. We pulled over and had a look inside a window to see what the commotion was about, it was a 'Cuda mens get-together. We snapped a couple of photos to share...........

OK Boys (MEK and NZ), now you both know the truth.  Hemi Dog is right on target with his post.  The Challenger is much more girly than the Cuda.  The Cuda is just an "In your face, Mean looking" car.  Challengers are beautiful cars too, and I hope to have one someday, but if I were to have my dream car it would be a 70 or a 71 Cuda (triple black of course).  Where is a pic of Triple Black Hemi's car when you need it? 

Oh, and NZ, did you have fun on your "date" with MEK cruisin around in your girlie cars?

Car(S) Us Challenger guys don't need to travel in tandem, Challengers don't brake down so that's why we travelled in one. US Men are brainy, we saved petrol and used that money.
Men love to fish and when dating goes wrong we usually say that there are plenty more Fish in the sea (meaning more woman).


Barracuda = Fish, fish  = Girl.

I'm in for the Cudas but I must admit I was shopping for a Chally when the Barracuda came up.  I really like the tail end of 70 cudas but prefer the nose on Challengers.  A mix of the two would be sweet.  I do prefer the extra attention to detail on the Challengers - cuda is sometimes a bit base-model.

Challengers all the way....didnt even have to think about it. Challengers are more unique and have never been close to duplicated....and the lines.....ohh the beautiful character lines. Sure the cudas are nice, but the styling cues of the cuda are just improvements on what was already done...whereas everything about the challenger is original. Like Oz said before, the extra detail of the challenger makes it even better. I would vote for a cuda if it had a flip-top gas cap, power bulge hood, a very distinct character line, and two inches more in the wheelbase.....ohh wait thats a challenger

I think challengers give off the look of brute power, while cuda's look more nimble and graceful.  I like cuda's better.  I have one of each so I figure my opinion is valid lol, but they are both amazing.
