    Pony cars are supposed to be reasonably small, too. When they announced the Challenger I was hoping for something about the size and weight of a Mustang. Not a 4,200lb boat. It weighs more than a lot of SUV's. Why? I realize that not everything can be a Lotus, but ths is kind of huge. When people start justifying it's size by saying that it is smaller than a sedan, we have a problem.

    Pony cars have a rear seat. Although I do realize that some sports cars do, too.

    Yeah, this classification stuff is confusing.

    I'll put it this way... Camaros (and Mustangs) used to be classified as pony cars. The modern ones may be classified as something different.

    No I meant the proportions are odd, or perhaps it's the angle in which the photography was taken or something.

    Anyway we are not getting it. And I'd personally prefer the "Monaro" concept unveiled recently.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    Holden often equip their test protos with towbars which they use to drag around their odd looking dynamometer-trailer

    Agreed - from that angle it looks like it would make a good basis for a ute conversion!

    Yeah imo the Concept 60 seems a lot less over-wrought or 'teen central'

    Those are the preproduction headlights, the production version will be like the concepts.

    and a black grille.
    The grille isn't black???

    a black camaro would definitely look a whole lot meaner than anything else

    Same here. It's cool but the Challenger is where it's at. I mean, have you seen this video - YouTube Challenger Debut - that's one awesome car.

    But I'm looking forward to a side by side showdown of the two for sure.

    The Camaro and Challenger concepts were at Amelia Island Concours sitting side by side. I can tell you seeing them in person like that the Challenger looks slabbed, heavy and boring next to the Camaro.
