If you're in the market for a v6 challenger/charger/camaro/mustang, 'which one is the fastest' shouldn't be a question you're asking. It doesn't matter what's the fastest of the slowest trims, buy the car you think is the most comfortable/best looking

[@BrianJNelson]

Literally what I was looking for when I picked out my Challenger. I wanted AWD so an SXT was a must, and I was mostly buying it for the looks. Doesn't hurt that it has a decently fast engine in it either, but wasn't what my focus was at, I was buying it for looks and comfort. I've been driving beaters for YEARS and it was finally time to buy NEW for once.

[@AnnetteLawson-qh5zd]

I think that they shouldn’t even have a v6 option on a “muscle car”….the reason so many people get excited about them and feel the way they do is because they had bada$$ big engines that go fast and rumble. The v6’s don’t rumble, they don’t go any faster than most family cars that tote kids because the engine is unimpressive. So everything that made a muscle car what they are, the v6 has none of. Their posers…get an accord

[@SovereignKnight74]

I knew the Camaro had the advantage due to horsepower and lighter weight, but what I am surprised is the actual results between the two. Considering the Challenger is 500bls heaver and 25 less horsepower, a -25 sec. difference is actually quite impressive. I'd still preferer a v8 trim Challenger over a v6 trim of course. With that, the Pentistar V8 is producing some surprising results. The Camaro V6 produces 284bls feet of torque, and the Pentistar, 268. For the Pentistar to have less torque and less horsepower and only have a -25 sec deficit is quite impressive! Excellent comparison video Racer X! Great job!

[@fibinotchi2494]

If he brake torqued the Camaro like he did the Challenger, he would have had mid 5 sec all 3 runs.

[@69Dartman]

I have always hated the look of the new Camaros, it's like they tacked on every body cue from all the older ones and it doesn't work for me. I'd take the Challenger on looks alone even if it's slower. I think they claimed my 06 Charger RT was supposed to do 0 to 60 in about 5.5 seconds with 350hp and a bunch of torque so that Camaros engine is probably pushing what they claimed, just less torque. You should try the 4 banger turbo just to see how it runs. Might be a good option for folks that like the body style but want much better mpg in a daily with some power as well. Hell, I wish I could get better than low 12 average in my car but I love how well it moves for such a pig when I get on it occasionally. I turned the traction control partially off and went to go around a very slow garbage truck because I had two lanes and it dropped a couple of gears and I swear started to haze the tires as it got to work, surprised me as it was dry and hot that day 😎

I have to laugh when people put base model cars down because more base models are sold than higher level trims. When it comes to these 2 cars, it depends on what you want. If you want a car that handles well and you're into more spirited driving, go with the Camaro. The Camaro has its drawbacks and it can one feel somewhat claustrophobic when driving it and the backseat is almost completely useless. If you want a daily, go with a Challenger or Charger. These are very comfortable, smooth riding cars, offer good visibility, and a back seat that is useful. As the owner of a V6 Mustang, I've owned mine for 7 years and I really like it. I bought the car for myself and I really don't need anyone's approval when it comes to choosing a car. I take it to the dragstrip and have a blast with it.

Not the typical scenario from what I've personally seen, but nice comparison nonetheless. I have a 2018 RS V6, and have raced a few cars including a newer Charger Daytona 5.7. In those particular runs it was basically dead even overall. On the V6 Camaro I've found best results are achieved by turning off the advanced traction control and foot braking till 1500-2000 rpm, then controlling wheelspin with your right foot. Makes a huge difference in the 0-60 times. I know the on-board timer is different, but I've got a best of 5.1 a few times on stock tires.

The Challenger is my dream car.... it looks so classic and drives like a classic!

[@Finraen]

I just bought a 2022 Challenger SXT. My best 0-60 was 6.1 seconds according to the dash timer. Other runs were usually around 6.3 seconds. I bought it used, and the dash says the all-time best time was 5.8 seconds.

[@lamarkx2259]

I’m in a V6 Camaro right now. I’m a good mood today after watching this video.

[@bobsebring2819]

V6 is the only way to go. Great looks, less expense all around and more reliable than a V8. Speed isn't that Important. There's laws against that. However, a reliable daily driver is what's truly needed.

[@HyperHawkCamaro]

Nice video man! Not many people put the time or effort into these models. You do have the RS options package on the camaro. on those 0-60 runs you also stalled on the converter on the challenger you could here the RPM's before you launched which you didnt do in the camaro but the camaro would have just spun had you anyways. Love the v6 platforms from both manufacturers just wish the dodge cars were lighter.

[@chriscole4717]

Yep that's what I thought too. I also have this Camaro and it's closer to 5 flat zero to 60

[@jaybman2700]

That was a cool video, now I know the Camaros got a little bit of a edge on that particular Dodge, until next time, racer X!

[@RacerX9]

For sure buddy..

[@dannyramirez8377]

I do 5.7 secs average on my v6 challenger. You might want to run it on sport mode

[@starrguitarworks]

I’ve been able to consistently pull 5.3 second 0-60 times in my 2018 RS Camaro. I have the high trim level with the performance timer built into the cluster.

[@SuzukiKid400]

That is likely not including rollout. He clarified in the video his timer does not removed rollout time.

[@luciusael]

Turbo Camaro would still beat the SXT at 0-60. Its acceleration is nearly identical to the V6 Camaro. It would, however, struggle, at a 1/4 mile due to smaller displacement.

[@peteraouad7930]

Can you do a supra 2.0 vs mustang eco boost

[@RacerX9]

Supra’s are hard to find for some reason.. I will keep my eyes open

[@benevolentson7328]

Why didn't you brake torque in the camaro like you did in the challenger?

[@fibinotchi2494]

I noticed the same thing. Turn your speakers up and you'll hear some power braking action on the Dodge and Nothing on the Chevy. -1 point Racer X !

[@chriscole4717]

Exactly. In the real world, the v6 camaro is way faster than the sxt challengers and chargers. The 2016+ are even faster than the RT chargers and challengers.

[@codezalo5773]

Agreed I'm actually looking to get into a Camaro for 10k less than a V8 rn the V6 should be plenty but that rumble you speak of is the exact reason I want one, the LT1 RS to be exact, V6 RS is available this year now so it's a tough decision

Thanks buddy.. I appreciate your support 👍

[@hi-fi3889]

V6 Camaro typically runs in that 5.4 range, Challenger 6.5. The camaro's 5.87 run was uphill to the Challenger runs being downhill so that will contribute slightly. Not sure why run 2 and 3 were slow on the camaro as he didn't show the dragy screen, porbably even more uphill.

[@kerwinhynes5047]

If all you are getting is 5.8 to 6 seconds, you must be going up hill. that is a 5 second flat 0-60 in most testing, with real timing equipment.

[@danoneill2846]

yep thumb on the scale

[@lharshy2019]

The pentastar over time will be more reliable. It's a very well proven engine that has been put in so so many vehicles.

[@jeffreyzabawski4862]

It's the ZF 8 Speed on why the GT's and SXT's Drive so nice.

[@stevesmith6236]

The base Camaro V6 looks to be right on the heals of a Challenger RT with the 5.7! Wonder how those two would compare at a 1/4 mile drag strip?

[@Hemi5Slow]

5.7 winning but the V6 Camaro is quick

[@vseqz]

@@Hemi5SlowI did a little race with a 5.7 2018 charger and I win 2 times 0-60 and 20-120

[@Hemi5Slow]

@@vseqz there’s different variables that can dictate the outcome of a race drivers mods and condition of both vehicles. From what I’ve seen 5.7 have the top end on the V6 Camaro and ecoboost Mustang easily especially the manuals that have the limited slip diff

[@droke3671]

Love this mans vibe

[@claytonkeever2992]

What you can do to the v6 money wise beats any v8. Then factor in the Camaro's weight/extra hp stock and you get a ton of fun options.

[@jsjs-qw3ss]

I have a 2013 Camaro as my daily drive and almost two hundred thousand miles still going strong but I also like the way the challenger looks too😊

[@patrickseals5746]

I like the challenger’s look, feel and the way it drives. Easier to get in and out of and the rear seat is good for passengers unlike other vehicles in its line. The the pentastar v6 is a great engine and the best v6 in the challenger line. The older challengers had a not so good v6 so I highly recommend the newer pentastar engine.

[@hoodlambo]

The 2009 Challenger with the 4-speed transmission was an absolute dog. The 2010 with the 5-speed wasn’t much better. Thank God Chrysler developed the Pentastar early in modern Challenger’s lifespan.

[@jaycalibre609]

Just got my brand new-to-me 5th gen v6 camaro with a manual trans. It is the vehicle im learning manual on and its just the most fun thing ever lol

[@danoneill2846]

Sounds like the Camaro was started at IDLE & the mopar was started with some Rs >> Gas & Brake at the same time before the start

[@islandon22]

Handling rules in my book. The Camaro handles with surgical provision. Meanwhile, the Chryco handles like a Mark Twain riverboat. 'Nuf said.

[@pplebite8844]

Both the V6 and Hemi needs a serious update. But since FCA is looking at going with EV tech, I don't think they care to.

[@RacerX9]

Hard to say.. but agreed 👍

@@RacerX9 the GM V6 makes more power because of direct injection. It also is more trouble prone because of direct injection.

im a MOPAR guy 🇺🇲 the much heavier weight in the Challenger proves its the most MUSCULAR since the 0-60 was very minimum difference .

[@dragvan1937]

I was wondering what was the difference between them in torque. That might explain why they are so close

Number wise kinda but on the street? They’re not close that RS will win with ease from being light weight & having 30 more hp than the SXT.

no offense towards the SXT but doubt that it will stand a chance against an RS in a race. but you can say the SXT is comfortable too

Of course Dodge are so behind on their lower engine option they totally forgot about it lol All they did was just added 5 more HP when it had been in the 300 flat for years now.
