After seeing them all, my vote goes to the Dodge Challenger, although I like all 3 a lot.

Being a past owner of a 67 RS/SS Camaro I still like Challenger best.

I don't think the Camaro catches the essence of the old Camaro. FAIL. Dodge wins this one - big time.

Challenger by miles!  I have tried to like the new Camaro but I just don't :vom: .  Mustang gets 2nd best.

I'm on the fence with this one. I like all 3. I work next door to a Ford dealer, so I see all the cifferent Mustang variations. Many of them are still selling for more than their sticker price, even in this economy.

I really like the looks of the Challenger (It's MOPAR!), but I would rather own the Camaro for performance.   :supz:

I dig the Camaro, I'm over the Ford' and the Challenger still looks like a Micro Machine to me.
My 1958 Mamiya can beat up whatever camera you just wasted your money on.
