Here's what I drive on nice days. The polar opposite of my beetle.

Well I looked at the Camaro but I just didn't like the back of it. It didn't look right. The Challenger was perfect. It has a 5.7 (345 c.i.) hemi 375+ HP, 6 speed manual, leather, and a bunch of other stuff. I also added glass packs for that old school rumble. Here's the interior.

LOVE IT!!

Yeah, I don't get the Camaro's rear end either. My guess is that they were trying to meld the '69 style and 73's lights as one . I would've been happy with either a 69 or 73, but not both combined.

Hope you get you a good photo shoot going for this gem

They really replicated that old school look. Even better with the modern safety, entertainment features, and awesome that you have a 6-speed manual. (I really miss my Turbo S's, with the 6-speed manuals). Have fun!
