Truthfully, you could buy it at MSRP, drive it for 2 or 3 months and then decide because all the ADMs. You could unload it in 3 months for what you paid easy.

DO IT!

You've got a great car now, with great power (more so than the Challenger right?) with argueably better looks, weight, and aftermarket support. Why start over now? Atleast, if anything, do what some of these other dudes have said and wait to see the '10 Mustang. Just my 2 cents- but I'm admittedly biased too.
You nailed it Tom. The "Starting over" is where I begin to lose interest in pulling the trigger on buying a Challenger.

I'm making a bunch more power than a Challenger since building the stroker motor this past winter, (around 600whp). Guessing I'd need around 650-whp out of a Challenger to put it on par with my GT. I'm not sure I have the time/patience to do another build up.

Glen how will the 2010 mustang be slower if it gets a 5.0 with 400 hp and 390 torq i think the weight will make the challanger slower than a mustang and the srt 8 challanger only has 25 more horse power not much of a diff.
