LOL for some reason I keep laughing at blank stare Luigi spouting out novel car advice.

Yeah. I think Cabbs should include some italian accents into his posts.

Vuoi dire come questo?

 

[alvino]

What?

 

[Cabbs]

You mean like this?

Google translator lol. I don't know what an Italian accent would look like typed.

The muscle car war is on

 

[Cabbs]

The Camaro needs new wheels, and the Challenger needs a diet.

 

[alvino]

Ah...resembles America. Brute strength, straight lines and obese curbweight. Sounds about right. Seriously though...both the Challenger and Camaro are WAY too heavy. It's getting to the point where it's just ridiculous.

If they kept the same engines and lightened it, they would perform even better. Colin Chapman was never wrong. Lightweightedness is next to Godliness.

 

[Cabbs]

Seriously though, I don't know how you make a 2-door sports car (Challenger) heavier than a 4-door sedan (Charger) by 200 pounds.

 

[superman22x]

But they are keeping them cheap. Well at least the camaro. The challenger was always more of a boat then the Charger wasnt it? The Camaro is just the little sister of the Vette, gets the hand-me-down engine, and doesnt have the fancy fiberglass body. Has cheap heavy stuff to keep the price lower.

 

[Cabbs]

But the last generation Camaro weighs 3400 pounds fluids and all.

Since 1970 the Charger has weighed about the same or more than the Challenger, 3200 lbs. or up to 3800.
