- Mustang GT = Cheap fun. Drop some coin on a good suspension set-up wheels and tires and for under $40K you've got a great car with usable back seats for smaller passengers. I'm 6'4" / 250 and I fit fine up front. Back seat is not an option.
- Camaro SS ILE = Will out handle a new track pack Mustang GT on the track. Straight line speed is about even. Back seat almost unusable. Headroom it tight if you're over 6'1" and visibility is awful regardless of size. They can be had for around $38-41K depending on your negotiating skills. These cars need nothing in handling department except a competent driver.
- Challenger SRT8: This is NOT a track car. It's too big and heavy with WAY to little tire underneath it. However, as open road GT car it's great. Wonderful seats, big power and fast, plus a usable back seat and trunk. However those big rear b-pillars hurt visibility. It's also BIG money compared to the other 2.
The Mopar crowd is still trying to figure out why the Mustang has surpassed Chrysler's offering in any and every way, they haven't even begun to assess the omnipotence the Camaro can deliver...
