WRX/STI is probably decent but the motor is basically the same one from 10 years ago.

Hydroplaning is mainly related to tire width and tread design. But a car that weighs 400+ lbs more than the Z won't hydroplane as much, all other things being equal.

These are my biased opinions.

I used to have an STI and I liked the car. It was no Z, as far as feeling sporty and cornering and stuff.
What's wrong with dodge?

yeah is mostly my not so super great tire brand but you know. when you get scared once it always remains in your. I am not like my dad who loves it when a car's back breaks loose once in a while

Test drive them and decide.
This is belgium. there are no muscle cars here. dodge bailed out of europe. chevrolet is bailing out next year ford is FINALLY releasing a mustang here....in 2015

i know they won't handle like my Z. like I said. I don't track my cars. hell I don't even really dragrace....since there aren't any dragstrips here.

like I love the mustang's look(well I love the camaro too but I looked at it's interior once and damn it's ugly) but the fact that they still use that old axel suspension tech is just like. makes for a uncomfy ride.

do the challengers use independent suspension? didn't find it instantly.
