I have an 06 GT Mustang, car is great.  Got it for $28k, 0% financing for 6yrs.
Say what you will, but it's history repeating it's self.  Ford comes out 1st, sells a ton, aftermarket is tremendous.

I read the Car & Driver test mentioned above, Challenger came in last just like the 1st go around.

Don't get me wrong, I love my 70 Challenger, but for the value there's no way to beat the new Mustang.

Said it before and I will repeat it here. It's fat, it's down on hp, it's more expensive. That being said, when it comes time to part with my hard earned greenbacks it will be the Challenger only. Anyone that has been in the Mopar camp for more than a few years has been whining and *****ing for a 2 door, rear wheel driven, modern day muscle car. Those days are here ladies and gentlemen. I love that the war is here all over again but you put me in the same camp as before.
History repeats itself. I was Mopar when they were cheap, second class, Chevy and Ford ass whipping cars that it seemed almost no one wanted. I have been through the later years when their rarity brought out all the posers and speculators with their wallets open. Now that there is a clear choice again people will again buy their personal weapon of choice.
I will once again be the rebel and wag my middle finger at the other 2 camps. Mopar or No Car. Of course that is just my  :2cents:

I haven't driven any of them so I have to go on looks.
1/ Challenger - Did a great job of keeping the original look, but modernizing it. And since the original is the best looking musclecar out there....
2/ Mustang - Because it looks better than the Camaro
3/ Camaro - Looks good from behind but messed up from the front, it just doesn't look right to me.

 :iagree: with everything you just said

Nothing personal against the new Camaro and Mustang, I think they are fine vehicles.

I bought a new Mustang GT back in `83-all black,302,5 spd.Cheap,fun quick little car.I love the new Mustang design but since the Challenger came out I like it better and would stick with a Mopar.Camaro just looks weird.
#1 Challenger
#2 Mustang
Camaro=never!
