But you'd be comparing two models that are in the same CLASS...and same setup level...

At least then it wouldnt be biased..

The irony to all of this is, that the Bullitt retails for about half of what the SRT-8 Challenger does....and is barely slower...

Well, it only has 50 less hp. It's still fat.

Well the truth of the matter is that the Challenger should truthfully be called the Charger because it is pretty much one size category larger than the Mustang. I did this comparison a few months back. This I think explains some of the issue.
