There about 40k usd, 45k cdn arent they, I know for that price I'd buy an evo, or an sti, or mustang and put a roush supercharger on it( I think if you buy the roush parts at a roush ford place they wont void your warranty if they install it) But speaking of evo's thats one thing I hate about canada, we can import evo 8 or evo 9's If we could I probably would have,lol. They were like what 29k new? I payed 28 here for my cobalt(canada gets raped on prices, they only reason i baught it here is 2.4% financing at the time vs 9% bank rate to go to the the us and bring it up here) If we could have imported an evo 9 I wouldnt have minded paying the 9% rate,lol. That being said I still love my car, beats anything I couldve baught here for under 35k( Mustang GT is 35k here, and stg 2 vs stock mustang is about even (from a roll) anyway isnt it? lol

Man those cars run almost exactly the same!! Look at the RTs and 60s. I bet they would have been dead effin even with the driver of the GTO in both cars.

Thats pretty good shifting too. The challenger I assume is auto and the GTO is m6 right?

dunno if it was the driver or conditions, but 13.5 is a good bit slower than the times I've seen for the challenger srt8

forget which mag it was...probably car and driver

but anyhow, in their SRT8 challenger vs Shelby GT-500 comparison, they ran 13.1 in the challenger. forget the trap speed....

To the Camaro bashers, what changed that you hated so much? The gas cap placement? The 69 Camaro didn't have it on top near the trunk, that was the Charger. The exhaust was going to change and we all knew. The interior is still in its concept form, which kicks ass compared to the Challenger's...theres nothing distinguishing it from the rest of the Dodge lineup. I really, really wish they made the 'Cuda instead...or make a true Charger.

I imagine the guy was so new to the Challenger that the RT was a mix b/t of not knowing where it would slip and not knowing when to stomp on it. At least if that was the first and only run it did that night.
