Heck, the PCP has white stripes with STP i do believe.
Now you're talking! Gotta check out the Classic with STP. With the low interest financing it may be more affordable than you think.
Also, I see nobody's let on that, in reality, the R/T has closer to 400 HP, but that's another thread lol. Read on.............

Just bought my 2010 rt could have gotten the ss but it just isnt as cool in my opinion the interior is more comfortable in the rt and seems more planed and better put together and the attention you get while driving people love the challenger! I have owned corvettes and camaros in the past also a 300 c srt8 i love my rt more than anything i have ever owned!
I only drove a co-worker's rented Camaro around the block once. That was of course the V6 with an auto. I didn't like the throttle response and the seating position. In general I think both Camaros are a lot of car for the money. They are obviously really good cars. But to me they are quite different from a Challenger. Sitting in a Camaro reminds me more of sitting in a sports car where in the Challenger it feels like a Grand Touring car. I like the later better. Just for comforts. In regards R/T vs. SRT8. I also have a Magnum SRT8 and they do handle quite differently. The SRT8s are for sure a lot more sporty and much firmer. But my R/T is a daily driver and I actually prefer the softer suspension there. Plus my Magnum SRT8 is quite a bit lower. I constantly have to pay attention to curbs, etc.
To me the Camaro is a good looking car. But the Challenger: there is nothing out there like it. Dodge did an amazing job designing this car. So if you prefer a cruiser with looks and kick, get the Challenger.
I got mine with a $500 off coupon for $33700. Has the leather package (28J), Electronic Conv. Group and Sound Group II, plus the fender stripes. And I love it in white. It looks so clean and classic.

I guess it comes down to, do you want to ride in a car a million others own and get blended in with the masses or stand our and have RSS instantly as you get a thousand times over by the local lookyloos "WOW!"
The RSS and wow factor along with the tattooed smile are all the reason you need.
