Shpuker Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Shame really. Should have been left to Holden to fully engineer etc. Would have been a better looking car too me thinks! And it would've been sold as a Trans Am through Pontiac (cause it'd be way cooler that way ) Given it would've come out a good 3 years earlier as well cause they wouldn't have wasted their time trying to pick the right color for the transformers movie.

Elite_Deforce Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Thats cause all the mechanics are from Chevy. What about the rest of the body being garbage. And the interior. Ditto, cept the GM guy part Dodge rules I believe Mustang came before the Challenger in that sentence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr. joint Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 LOL everyone likes to talk about American cars here. Chrysler does suck. But for the price, the 300 is okay. And need I mention again that I like the Commander? But anyway, Challenger is..umm..I like the Camaro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Challenger is just awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammo Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Gm's using Holden's platforms...... Which is great! One reason the Monaro sold well here. However, Mercedes platforms arnt so great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wally Posted August 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Which is great! One reason the Monaro sold well here.However, Mercedes platforms arnt so great! The Monaro the US got had some differences. The suspension was jigged to introduce roll, yaw and tramp...to give that authentic yank tank feel. LOL. I bet you didn't know Merc used Holden designed brakes at one stage. Holden also had a working DOHC V8 a couple of decades ago, but Detroit cracked a hissy fit and made is vanish.

Jammo Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 It might've it'd had been around for more than 2 years.... Its a shame the GTO didnt have the same body styling as the Monaro VXR500, that car looked awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elite_Deforce Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Gm's using Holden's platforms...... Chrysler uses crappy Merc platforms, tomato tomato. 300C AWD is bad ass, Commander is meh, the 2011 Grand Cherokee is frekin bad ass. And the Challenger is just awesome 300 would be good if it wasn't so plasticy. Commander IS meh, new Cherokee does look hype. Challenger is full of shit im sorry. Although I'm not afraid to put the Camaro in last place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfeeney Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 So can someone explain to me why it's such a piece of shit? I't a chassis problem (don't get the first year of a new gen), But you have to say the LS3/LS7/LS9 are great engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
