    A bodies, then the E bodies.  For E bodies, it depends on the year.  Year to year, I prefer the Challenger, except in 71.  Out of all the E bodies, I have to say, I like the 72 Challenger Rallye the best.  Something about the grill, and side vents just screams of badassness to me.

    the chally grill after 71  makes me LOVE 72,3,4  cudas.  those grills kill the whole car for me and for the life of me I don't know why, its just the grill.   right now I'm curling into the fetal position to protect myself from the people I don't mean to offend. :-[

    As nice a car as a 71 Cuda is, the seat patterns belong in Yugo, they look so cheap. The 70 had a very nice seat pattern!

    The Challenger for sure. Only like the Cuda in 71 (the 2 headlight thing is just wrong). Favourite would be a 70 Challenger RT Lime on Black. Second a 72-74 Challenger. Love the tailights, and yes, as was said earlier, the 72-74 grille is weak. 71 Challenger tailights are gross IMHO.

    Hmmmm...  So, am I the only one who thinks that the 72-74 Challenger grill is the best looking E body grill?  It gives it a mean, sinister look.

    I don't hate it but I definitely think the 70 Grille is bar far the meanest, not because I own one but that grille was what made me get what I have. Stuck way back there in the body all black and shady like.........evil, pure evil.

    Well...I think the '71 Gran Coupe interior is the best!

    I like cuda's best,but as for a challenger I like 71 the best because of the grill lol.  I might be the only person on here that says that.  It really makes the car look unique.  It seems that a lot of people have a 70 challenger and they have the most popularity because of vanishing point and the 72-74 look the same with their grill, but the 71 is completely unique and rarely seen.
