New or Old?

[dodgegirl]

Okay - so I grew up with the classic... My dad drove a baby blue '66 Charger- I loved that thing... still to this day love the old chargers- but  man I am torn- my friend drives a brand spankin' new lime green and black daytona Charger that's pretty darn great too... what does everyone else think- new or old- which is better?

The classics are why it's called the mopar hemi challenge.  Read the article in the general discussion forum here.  While the new stuff is great it's got nothin on the classics, they got us to where we are today.

The new one is a 4 door sedan.  Not the 2 door muscle car that the name implies.  The new challenger would be a better comparison

Exactly.

While the old one looks awesome it handled like a brick on wheels.  My charger, while it does have 4 doors is still a much better car.  The nostalgia isn't there, but I still show everyone and their brother the rear end of my car when I want to.  The new challenger is that shot of old school mopar if that's what you're looking for.  My old charger was a nice car, but this one is better.  I can only imagine what the new challenger is going to feel like when compared to it's predecessor.
