Out of the 2.. Mustang for speed. Challenger for looks.
So many stangs out there, you will go unnoticed. The challenger on the other hand will probably get you more speeding tickets.

The "problem" years of the Corvette was not a Corvette thing but a car thing. All cars were pretty weak and had issues in the late 70's early-mid 80's. Even then a early C4 can be gutted and made fun.
Thanks for the comments, but...
1) Not going to buy a Corvette. The insurance costs are exponentially higher than for any of the pony cars by virtue of no back seats. Stupid, but an extra couple hundred a month is a waste.
2) Want something either brand new or at most a year old. I've only owned used vehicles my whole life (except my bike) so it's sort of a big deal to buy new.
3) Again, per the title of the thread, it's either between the Challenger and a 2011 Mustang. I definitely prefer the aesthetics of the Challenger and it's certainly a car that stands out. Way too many Mustangs out there...but if the new Mustang lives up to expectations, I'd definitely get one.
4) Fuck Japanese cars. I owned an Infiniti i35 for less than a year because it was a piece of crap. Sold it as soon as I could. My Lincoln Towncar supposedly has a much less power-to-weight ratio than the i35 but would smoke it in the 1/4. Not to mention it's a lot bigger on the inside and gets decent highway mileage.
The charger is just way to big and fat to even bother considering for me.
1) Did you actually run the quotes on a USED corvette compared to a NEW Challstang? If you haven't, you might be pleasantly surprised.
2) I can't help you there, that's personal preference. I personally would happily trade in "newness" for performance. Especially if it's not a daily driver.
4) Just because you had one bad experience doesn't mean you should jump to hasty conclusions like that.
Everything about those two sentences is wrong other than smiling when driving the Charger. Everything else horribly, horribly wrong.My wife owns a 07 Charger RT. That car makes me smile every time she lets me drive it.

He's talking about your wife "letting you" drive the car.
Well it is her car. She picked it out and she paid for it. So yes, I ask if I want to drive it. It works best that way for us.
