the imperial looks too tall, but yeah the other 2 are not bad at all! i dunno if its just the photo angles but i reckon the challenger needed to be a bit fatter and lower looking. other than that its not too bad

That camaro is I reckon one of the most beautiful concept cars Ive seen come from Seppo land. It beautifies an age old classic design. The dodge is awesome too but just awesome. Not a beautiful homage to a classic.
The camry is still a slab sided Fat arsed ИИИИheap |

I reckon the Challenger is hot. The Camaro's average and well the less said about the "Pimp-Daddy" Towncar the better.

Love the Camaro, love the Challenger, the Imperial looks like the love child of a Chrysler 300C and a Rolls Royce Phantom.
:lookedat: I can't wait to see the Fire Bird version of the Camaro.

 : The Imperial looks terrible. I mean its painted brown for christ sake with some of the ugliust wheels i've ever seen. It looks like a 30 year old Rolls.

I reckon what makes the Dodge Challenger so nice is that you can sort of see an evolution of the old one. It's an old car brought up to todays styling.

THat Imperial "fills me with the urge to defacate"
The Challenger is the sexiest thing on 4 wheels to come out of USA ina looooong time. The Camaro looks a lot like the Challenger, but nowhere near as good I dont liek the small looking windscreen or the big steopped rear, it seems to lacks balance. And where the dodge looks pretty production ready the Chev looks like a show-concept car. I LOVE that pic MITCHAY |

Chrysler Imperial - I'm sure it would have its niche, but its not Bentley enough for rap videos, nor Trump enough to challenge Lincoln Town Cars for limos, etc.
Chev Camaro - a nice interpretation of the classic much like Ford went with the current Mustang, good but can't win them all. Dodge Challenger - I can't imagine a hornier looking modern retro muscle car. Love the old ones, love that new one, where do I sign? |

The Dodge is sweet. I'd love to see a retro Cuda with a Hemi though
 Then again, nothing quite beats the originals.

Just saw a little video of GM's design centre, with the designers carving the Camaro out of clay, and what do you see in the back of the studio but a couple of 2005 Mustangs. LOL.

The Challenger looks ok but the front reminds me of Forrest Gumps mate - Bubba with the bottom lip thing happening lol
The Camaro looks the ducks nuts.

The Camaro will be engineered using Holden's new rear wheel drive platform.
