The Cougar for me by dint of its size. Two beautiful cars!


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

Wow, My two favorite cars for '68.  For me it is the Charger since I much prefer the roomer and better riding Charger.  If I needed[?] a smaller car the Cougar be my choice.

CHARGER

Love both especially in the red paint scheme.  But my choice will be the Charger.

Another extremely close comparison...thanks John!  My fave Charger vs. my fave Cougar....muscle vs. pony.  I would take either one in a heartbeat but give the nod to the styling of the Charger.

Two stunners! In a toss up, I'll take the cougar for its size, interior, and powertrain.
