diver88 Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I took that pic in the dark with an IPhone and the car still shines. I just washed it and used the Quick Sealant for the first time.. can't imagine how good it will look with glaze and Americana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marylander Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Trading the mustang for the Dodge? Personally, I'd keep the Mustang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbeard Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 That's a really good pic to be at night on a phone. Are you thinking of trading the Mustang for a Challenger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TR6speed Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Well I am a GM person, but of the three pony cars (Camaro, Mustang and Challenger) I do believe Dodge hit a home run with the new Challenger as far as the resto look goes. Nothing wrong with the Mustang or the Camaro, but of the three I do like the Challenger the best for looks. BrianT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to buy another Mustang with a glass roof but the Ford dealers are big game players and I had bout all of them I can handle.. so looking elsewhere, probably keep the Mustang I have.

Nothing wrong with the Mustang or the Camaro, but of the three I do like the Challenger the best for looks. I planned for 3 years to get a new Camaro, until I drove one. I got to say I was terribly disappointed. couldn't see out of it, felt like I was sitting on the ground, could feel every pebble in the road before you got to it... I'm too old for that. I'm also a GM guy, only bought 1 Ford in my life, everything else has been GM. I drove the Challenger and it rides very nice, really quiet and runs ok (5.7LHEMI) but not spectacular.. but they have a really nice sunroof, something I can't get with a Mustang, and the Camaro's sunroof felt like it was in the back seat when I drove one. I don't know, getting rid of the P-Zeros off the Mustang and adding some Continentals might make it a little smoother, and if I had the nerve I'd have an aftermarket sunroof put in. but, the Quick Sealant sure did make the Grabber Blue shine and pop..

MichiganSRT8 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 go for the new 6.4 and you wont go back, or wait for the 'cuda to come out which is rumored to come with a factory supercharger, not for the power but the warranty aspect. the 5.7 is nice but power is addictive . nice looking mustang though man, I went and drove a new GT and it wasnt a slouch, especially for the price.

Chewy Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I'd keep the blue oval... I'd probably buy one if it weren't for the fact that a new one will come out soon. IMO, the Challenger is long over due for an update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbeard Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Word is the Barracuda will replace the Challenger on a smaller platform around 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diver88 Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 long overdue update, I ordered a Challenger and got it last May.. now I'm about to seal, glaze and wax for the first time and have been unable to get the red applicators for the sealer so I can apply the glaze and Americana. only applicators I have are ones I've used for the wheels. and still having issues with the microfiber towels linting and fibers sticking to the car with Detail Spray.. I have to use blue waterless towels to clear the mess. another I-phone pic at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PacificNWBuckeye Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I've ridden or driven each of the three and the Challenger is the most comfortable one to me, give me a White R/T with a manual. csrt4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GM? Yep. Muscle? Yep. A blast to drive? Yep. HP? Yep. Get you noticed? Yep. Just an all around blast to hit the pedal and peel out? YOU BET! And now, you can get a C6 for the same price as any of the others you're looking at. Unless you just don't like the looks, which I can understand it's not for everyone, you should think about it.

I've got 2275 miles on it and I'm loving it more every time I drive it.. very comfortable, pulls strong but it's not a hotrod. moreover, I need to figure out the problems I'm experiencing with some of the products here. are the Hex Americana pads being replaced with something else.. I looked again last night for them so I could place my order on the sale and couldn't find them thinking I'd come back and look more and forgot about it and missed the sale, just emptied my cart out.
