The challenger trunk looks bigger then the stang. The camaros, is way to bloody small.

I guess the new Challenger is a bonafide gangster's car...
When I had my '06 Stang, the trunk is huge, but the opening is too small and too high to fit big luggages.. I had a hard time trying to fit my guitar amp into the trunk.. but the camaro's look really small.. but at least its bigger than the G35 Coupe's trunk... now that's useless..

The Challenger's should be big...the car is the size of a pontoon boat!

The camaro's lights take up WAY too much space on the back that they didn't use.

Makes the opening way too small!

WT.....? Why make an opening that is smaller than the 'top' by that much? Oh, I forget, Americans are stupid and will buy anything automakers put in showrooms. Recent sales seem to back this up

Don't know the overall specs, but I can get ALOT of gear in my trunk, since its very tall and can handle a tall Rubbermaid container full of detail supplies. Don't think the Challenger's is as tall.

That was my first thought, what an awful design!

That said, it does look like the Challenger's trunk > Camaro's trunk.

WTH!? That Camaro trunk looks ridiculous as the one in my Fox notch... the person or committee that designed that silliness needs a serious backhand p!mp slap - without the glove.

Wow. Did GM learn anything from the GTO? The similarities continue to mount, with the latest being a giggle-inducing trunk. In every meaningful way, both good and bad, this is truly a GTO redux with a retro Camaro body slapped on.

Well it makes sense, Bumble Bee, the most famous 5th gen Camaro was after all built on a '06 GTO platform by Mr. Saleen. I guess they forgot to change the trunk.
