you can even call it that. the challenger has done exactly
what i have been wishing chevy to do....bring out a retro-rod
that recalls their glory days. i want a first gen. dont want to
pay 30k for a car that rides like a school bus. if they took
a first gen body and updated it like they did the challenger it
would own. but they didnt...so the new 'camaro' will end up in
the graveyard with the firebird.
the fbody died in 02. the '5th gen' should be called the next-gen.
fyi....the new camaro is going to be just as heavy as the challenger

First off, Camaro will be lighter then the Challenger in every way.
2nd, Camaro never "died". It went on hiatus. This would make it teh 5th generation.
As for making it look like a First gen...uh, yeah, thats exactly what it looks like. A modern first gen.
Handle like a bus? So I assume you have driven it? Or perhaps maybe you should take a look at reviews of teh G8 GT vs the Charger, and the handling of the G8 easily outdoes the Charger in every way.
Dont wana spend 30k on a car that handles like a school bus...I suggest NOT getting the Challenger.
