Not everyone has the same taste in vehicles. Personally when it comes to the classic Barracudas I prefer the A body Barracudas.
Comparing the Classic Challenger to the new one is like comparing apples to oranges, imo. The only thing they have in common is a name.
That said, the new ones handle MUCH better, generate more power with less engine, are FAR more efficient, and can easily compete with the classic challenger on a drag strip.
However, the classic E body Challengers and 'Cudas will probably always be worth more (in my opinion) than the new ones, don't need a computer, and are an freakin' BLAST to drive!
I don't know that I like the new Challenger better than the old one, but I do know that I wouldn't be opposed to owning either.
