I'm guessing this is the new Automotive thread?
Spy Shots of the 2012 Dodge Charger...

Heck no. Keep them all separate. Automotive should have its own area on NT. But I don't think it comes up enough.

Keep them all separate? Yeah, is that why this thread went from the Charger spy shots to the CTS-V vs M3 vs Mustang GT vs Evo X vs Evo IX vs 300 and then some side luxury super car depreciation fights? This is exactly what happens in the Automotive thread. Haha.
Every page there is a new car to challenge:

not really, i dont care for american cars but for someone to say the SRT is trash then im gonna get mad. they obviously have never drove or rode in a SRT in their life. If they did they would never say such a comment.

SRT is just a inhouse - aftermarket company, Dodge is trash. Is that better for you? I've been in a SRT4 and 300c SRT8, both are

= M3 and gt500 murder.
The thing about the modern American Muscle cars is that they are built to be modified.
BMW, and Mercedes dont supply engine blocks to tuning comapnies.
So while its easy to compare the cars stock you have to understand that BMW generally doesnt want you to go to a tuning company and thus the options are limited.
If you are willing to spend the same money and ride in a Chevy it will handle better, drive faster, have just as nice an interrior too

interior =/= driving experience on a SRT -8 charger/300
so you saying dodge trash = ignorant

Fellas lets not trash the lower Charger models. The RT is great in its own lane like the SXT. They are all made to fit a class of people.
From family people, to people who want a nice semi muscle car to muscle car lovers.
I see the trashing too often. Plus I could end up with a SXT until the new Charger releases

Cmon..the _ just said why buy a gt500 when he can mod a camaro for cheaper
why not just mod a civic or an old supra that'll be cheaper than the camaro?
if i would've said why not get a foxbody mustang, you would've agreed with me...you bash imports when you don't know a thing about them..

You can't compare the two cars. One is a naturally aspirated 4.0L V8 that likes to rev to 8,400rpm, the other is a supercharged 5.4L V8 with a 6,000rpm redline. You're trying to compare a scalple to a butcher's knife - they're both set out to accomplish different things.
And FWIW, I could care less about all the trimmings that come with the GT500. My ideal M3 would have speed-cloth seats, no sunroof, no power seats, nothing. As long as it has the S65 engine, I'm a happy man. Options are just that, options. You don't have to pick them, and I'd rather not have them.
I'd also rather stare at this all day:
