Have a real one (440 six-pack '70 Challenger)
<center><img src="http://ac.marywood.edu/eden/www/RT440SixPackFront2.JPG"></center><p>Quite a different beast from my '05 AR....and, one appreciates while the other depreciates of course! Link to pic will probably fail as I have never tried to post/link pics before (apologies in advance).

Wow! Now, that's a Muscle Car!
What part of the country do you have it? I'd love to see it sometime. The 70 and 71 Challenger are the sharpest of the bunch. Is it a 'pistol grip' 4-speed, too? Great picture, your attachment works. The file size could be smaller to fit the screen better and speed the download.

Well, I think it looks good but prefer the Mustang. I have an old one here, http://www.cardomain.com/ride/597572/7
I saw other photos of the Camaro, it showed a details of the center console, they located four small rectangular gages there, makes them really easy to see.

Having owned 2 - a Z28 and an SS, I think this one is Ugly (note the capital U)...
had a 69 Z28, 302, M22
and a 69 S396- Indy Pace Car edition
Also had a AAR Cuda with the original 340 6-pack
and
a '69 Mustang Mach 1 with the 351C.
So, I think the current Mustang totally captures the spirit of the 69-70 vintage Mustang and is so nice that I want a GT Convertible.
I also think that the new Challenger is a fantastic interpretation of the 70-72 Cuda/Challenger cars and with a Hemi will be awesome.
But the new Camaro is typical GM- way over the top and does nothing to rekindle the spirit in those of us who had the real thing in our younger days. Too bad. Maybe this is why GM's stock is bordering on Junk status these days.

Love this new trend of rejuvenating these old cars
In fact I drove a Mustang GT before buying the AR...it was ok..fast enough..handled fine, but just lacked the refinement I was looking for. Oh, and no place for my big, dumb dog.

It's disappointing that Detroit can't come up with new designs that are exciting. Gimme the original any day, like my non-winter driver - '72 Corvette. Refined? Hell no! But the fun factor is off the scale and there's nothing like the dual exhaust note of 350 Q-jetted cubes.
