test drove a challenger before i bought my Gen Coupe. I love the space in the dodge but the interior was too offensively cheap to consider it any further
@Leo240sx I went and looked in an 07 Corvette awhile back, just to get a laugh. The interior in the Corvette looked like something out of a 92 Cavalier. Wouldn't you think if you were going to spend that much money on a car, then just maybe they could touch it up a bit. I'd rather have a Hyaundai over a Vette anyday. I'll stick to Honda's and Toyota's, im not sucked into buying shit quality vehicles because that somehow makes me a patriot, even though all those Corp's have fucked over americans
Umm... im not so far away to be able to aford one of these babies... and I so want one. Tho personally I'd go for the R/T Classic, since (in canada) there's a 8k difference for that bigger engine...
Still have 3 years to go with my chevy tho, I hope they wont screw it's looks by the time i'm ready to buy it, heh.
@Francois424 Here in my country you can get CHallengers new from 20 something upward, but all only available in 5 speed auto transmission... unfortunately the Hemi V8 costs over 40 grand, and the only one available with 6 speed manual ;( I reawlly want the Hemi, but the problem is a LITER of gas costs 1 euro 30 cents roughly, which is about 4,55 euros on the gallon, which converts to 6.23176 USD & 6.34497 CAD :( See my dilemma?
@k4n31985 Don't get sucked into buying American vehicles, i feel so bad for foriegner's who think these american cars are nice. Chev, Ford and Dodge are all complete crap. I had a 2010 Impala as a rental car, and the thing was not near as nice as my 03 Accord. I would be pissed if i brought home a new Impala, just to realize in a couple days that the car really sucks, and is very low quality. My accord is still just as tight as a new one, and passes inspection every year without issue
@afghi420 Dude, that's a rental Impala. The absolute bottom trim level of a car that even Chevy people don't like. You can't say that all American cars are crap because of one disappointing rental mule. That's like taking a vacation in Germany, renting the cheapest Citroen you can find, and then proclaiming that all European cars are garbage because it's not as sweet as mom's Chrysler minivan with the leather interior, wood and chrome trim and big V6.
the steering wheel is the same in a neon or a pickup truck lol. I'm surprised dodge didn't add cinder blocks to the trunk. its a boat. I really do love the look. and your buying that car for pure tq and grunt.
I now own one of these beasts . Wow ! What a car . I've owned many cars over the years . Mustangs , camaros , corvettes and still own a 68 shelby GT 500 KR ..... I've lowered it 1.5 inches , added heavier sway bars and got her to about 480 H.P. The build quality is excellent and the best seats I've ever sat in . I personally love the interior and these cars are fast ! I've done 0-60 in 4.2 seconds . Top speed will easily blow away the camaro or mustang . Pins you in your seat . What a beauty .
or engineered hardly anything. now stop and think for a moment how long europe has lived under the protection of the us military. you'd probably be speaking russian not german. most of europe has not paid the bill for it's defence throughout the cold war. you let the usa do that, and so prospered
under our aegis. before the discovery of oil, norway had no economy to speak of. you find oil and now you're a big shot...so excuse me if I dismisss your rethoric. flag waving? you watch too much tv
such typical eurocrap... our sense of nationality is not the automobile.
as with all euros you fail to understand why americans love cars. in the usa
the distances are vast. touring cars are essential. norway fits inside calif.

How does it taste for your generation the way todays GMs and Chryslers are simply redressed german and korean steel and simply pose as american. GM took their bailout money and effectivelly fled the country when they left 90 factories behind and today build cars in third world shitholes. Chrysler was given away to Italy for free. So much for american engineering and craftsmanship.

How american. Lashing out at my nationality in a feeble attempt to make yourself look better. As if the entire US car industry didnt recently die. As if putting ME down makes you better. Always pulling out americas favourite one-liner "You would all be speaking german by now if..."
Such infinite naivety. How does it fit your patriotism now that GMs are asian squeeky plastic never touched by american hands. Now that muslim Arabs and communist China has undermined your economy.
Dude... Norway dont advertise its wealth. Which is why you dont know were the richest and most prosperous nation in the world by a big margin. On top of that we got the worlds largest money fund of some 3500 billion invested in businesses abroad making Norway the worlds largest stockholder. Every country doesnt make cars, nor is it a prerequisite for my country to build them for me to have extensive knowledge of them. Im simply pointing out... With americas very sense of nationality-
-linked to your car business... How does it fit your sense of patriotism now that the big3 ran themselves into the ground on a biblical scale and gave it all away. GM is big in China now... China gives them special treatment over there or Obama threatened to tax Chinese goods into USA. The goal is to produce ever cheaper cater-for-all squeeky plastic GMs for the flagwaving masses and will soon ship Chinese built "american" cars back to USA. Shame... Such a shame.
god what a beauty. I once got passed by a SRT8 Challenger and couldn´t get rid of my smile. the sound, the design - just the entire appearance of the Challenger is so classic muscle car like. now if I wasn´t into muscle cars I´d probably even think it´s a 70s car. I wish they had designed it to be a little lighter tho. just as it is - it´s just not going to be a proper performance car like the classic muscle cars which were not light also - but still a quarter ton lighter than the new challenger
I sat in a Challenger and Oh My God is it massive. This thing is a tank. I felt like a mouse in a church sitting in the Dodge's seat. It was just to big for me. I'm not short either. I'm a good 6 foot one. I guess if I were chunkier, I might fit.
This thing isnt so spectacular. Its just a redressed Chrysler C300 which again is a Mercedes e-class from 1996. Nothing has been done to its (lack of) road capabilities except throw in an enormous engine to get all patriotic over. This thing is cheap for a reason and sold only on nostalgia. Get one with a V6 and its only redeeming point is gone.
@Jaunduskha the relevance is obvious...you're just regurgitating
jeremy clarkson...ad nauseum. he'd compare a porsche to a lincoln
navigator... talk about irrelevant, no one is talking about patriotism.
this car is about cool fun. that an average joe can afford.
"This thing isnt so spectacular. Its just a redressed Chrysler C300 which again is a Mercedes e-class from 1996" -bullshit... with a hemi and a pistol grip 6 spd??
Yeah a Hemi and a god damn pistol grip is all it takes to shout AMERICAAAA FUCK YEAH ! Im not on some quest to discredit US cars. They do that perfectly fine all by themselves. I just find it weird that america cant build their own cars... Not even when they re-build american icons. To your grandparents, redressing german and korean steel and pose as american the way Chrysler and GM does today would be quite shocking. Whatever happened to american engineering and craftsmanship.
This review was excellent. It touched upon all the reasons why I purchased a Challenger. This car says "take your namby-pamby little hybrids and soccer mom mini vans and shove em!" This car is about hookers, whiskey and flooring it when the light turns green!
I've gotten so many complements about this car. And what's really kool is, boys seem to say alot about it. 9 and 10 year old kids on bikes will say "Nice car man." And whenever I hear them say that it takes me back to when I was a kid.
yeah... Except it says "take your namby-pamby little hybrids and shove em!" by redressing a god damn 16 years old german Mercedes and simply putting in a big engine to get all patriotic over, fake "carbon" plastic vents and seats out of a mailorder catalogue. So much for patriotism, craftsmanship and the american dreeeeam. However Im sure its lack of quality and road capabilities takes you right back to the 70s.
@fminx328 Mustangs these days only really get hype if they got the name Shelby or Roush next to them. Other than that, they are just Mustangs. I do wish that the challenger was lighter and had more performance. Mopar Performance. BTW, I think that Chrysler should bring back the Cuda; even though that was under the Plymouth name- its all Chrysler, but make it a bit different than the Challenger, so its not just an identical twin. like back in the 70's.
To me there are two major points to the whole Challenger/Mustang/Camaro hating happening...
1. They really are 3 completely different cars, designed to achieve different things.
and
2. The day you realize your all in it together and celebrate the fact that the big 3 are even MAKING these cars instead of ripping on each other with 99% untrue or irrelevant information is the day you start enjoying life more.
@teambronski woah woah woah... What?! "They really are 3 completely different cars," yes, yes they are. "Designed to achieve different things." like what? The mustang isnt there as a 4x4. they're all designed to do the same thing; get chicks and do burnouts. ... and whats wrong with BMW? lol.
I'm not a fan of american cars, but I heard that the "hemi" in the new challenger can run on 4 cylinders on the highway at around 30mpg. not bad for that car I guess.
I am wanting a new Challenger, I am going to buy a new "Orange" one (RTS)!! And then, I am going to get a Confederate Flag painted on the roof of it!!!
This guy has the best job in the world. Gets to drive cars as diverse as this, the Lotus Elise, Porsche Boxster, Corvette, Honda S2000, etc....and get PAID for it.
@thumple-makes me wanna thump thumple for just mentioning a german car or a japanese car. Buy a BEEMER if you want fun..gawdam that makes me angry, you wouldnt like me when I'm angry..let me thump you right on that snooker of urs..
I feel like I have to challenge someone at something... I also feel like the next person who reply to this comment will get sock in the face. Maybe, is just the soda.
@Skott62 ya did you see the buttons? seems like after 04-05 the buttons on the console look like oversized universal remote control buttons or fancy pocket calculator buttons. seems all dodge is like that now.
@SaviorSelf15 as a first car? good luck then ;) usually you buy a crappy car as the first one so if you scratch it you don't mind..but the challenge sure is awesome
man my brother is getting one of these and now im thinking im going to get jealous of him... im getting a 350z though so i think im fine O_O....maybe not cause he says he wants it super charged... so i think i might be getting a little jealous...
I have been watching this video many times over and can't stop dreaming of this super badass Dodge Challenger. I own and drive a 2000 Pontiac FIrebird Trans Am WS6 in Black. As much as I like my Firebird, I am very crazy about this Challenger SRT8. If it came down to one car, I would probably trade in my Firebird and upgrade to this super muscle car.
the gears control the entire car the only way a muscle car should be, a cruiser that looks like its pissed in the first gear,about to hit u in the second gear,taken u outside in third gear,smashed ya face with the fourth,sent ya to the hospital in the 5th and killed u in the 6th(sorry idk how many gears its actually got,hopefully 6 speed manual or auto,hehe for someone who loves cars alot i dont know much about this one)
Dodge Challenger's RULE !! Love my SRT-8.. 4.5 0-60..12.9 1/4 with 2,000 on the clock ..yeah..19 mpg !! Yeah !!
Funny, when I owned an import I wanted to look at art,sniff and sip wine,wear sweaters with shorts and socks with sandals,felt like skipping,holding hands with strange men ,wanted everyone to be equal,have no score's in games,give everybody a passing mark even if they are dumb as a post.Now..I am back to being a real 6"4 GUY again driving a real car !! MOPAR RULES ! Good to be back!
I own a 70 challenger as well as a 2010 and can tell you that Dodge got this one right! I often take a quick look at the two and sometimes its hard to tell which one is the new one. Good job on this review and thats coming from a 42 year old car guy.
Oddly enough i like the review. Its refreshing to here reviews from the younger generation that wasnt there in the late 60s and early 70s. I was very young but my father was right in the thick of it. I remember at a very young age sitting in the front seat with the top down and hearing the big hemi scream. A car he owns to this day among many more.
"Driving the Challenger makes me want to go somewhere and get in a bar fight. I just do. I want to go somewhere and punch somebody in the face." Hahaha, awesome.
@Pull0utBoy Doubt it, My boss had a Jag, until he tried to outrun a Mustang and blew the engine. He only had the Jag for 8 months. If he lost to a mustang, he will surely lose to a Challenger.
What i like about these guys is that they dont toss specs... they speak of what it feels like truly behind the wheel and at the end of the day, thats all what really matters. Good on you keep up the good work!
A street-lega version of the non-street legal racing model of this car was introduced at the SEMA car show last year. The basic concept is an entirely purpose-built version for speed. All ancillary trim, accessories and back seat are removed to save weight and cost. All you get in this variation is a pumped 426 hemi and the car. Nothing else.
So, my question is: when will THIS car be available to the public?
Who the idiot here guy? You just stated - people are bloated heads and buy these things? Are you fkin serious? Great comment, the bloated heads are real automotive gear heads, wether they have money to buy these types of cars or not. That thing is an amazing car called a Challenger.
@GearC7 - You spit hate at this video a month ago. We noted that the guys like the Challenger and suggested our other episodes. You made it clear that you couldn't stand the show.
Now you're back, telling us again all the reasons we suck. And it seems you're commenting @ nicholaiputan as if he's involved.
If you hate us so much, why come back and make angry comments again? And it sounds like you know what you want to see in a car show, so we encourage you to do it. We will applaud you.
Actually I agree with nicholaiputan. Learn how to read. PS - hope you guys are pissed off enough now to clean up your act, lol - I see i got to you, now do it right. I applaud you, lmao.
@EverydayDriver I don't see a logical reason to hate this show, maybe its not perfect, but compared to the other shows, this one gets all the points, you get the good and the bad, and i think the bad is more important to know so you don't get stuck with it and can focus on the good. i know i've said some stuff, but nothing against the show.
the big difference is how you guys do more talking about the car, rather than making yourselves the center of attention. and thats why this show is beast.
my dad owns the RT challenger i own a 370Z the challenger is nice, has a lot of power compared to the Z, but the Z has way better handling and steering feel and the syncroh rev is beautiful, but i hav to give props to dodge, also challenger cabin is very quiet while the Z u r able to hair a noise that sounds like rice hitting a tin can over and over
yeh man muscle beats import every time period. but i still love my 370Z and hell im 18 i got time to get new cars, im planning on getting a shelby gt500 when i graduate from college.
Yea, those gt500s have a hell of a lot of horsepower. I think they are like $50,000 though. But you know, by the time you graduate college, there is gonna be something bigger and better than what there is now. lol
@TRiNi2DBONE42 Handling can be tricky. I prefer the lose handling that Dodge has. I drove my sister's Nissan and to me, I hate the tight steering. I like to be able to steer with my finger.
@hmcgill911 Replace the springs and shocks and you will never love your car more, I ahve a Charger R/T and that was the best mod period, it actualy handles like a sports car.
We hope you watched all the way to the end of the video to see that the guys ultimately really like the Challenger.
And we've got a review of the Camaro and Mustang coming soon, so we hope you come back to see what the "Nerds & Wanna be Hippys" or "Fkin people" say about those cars in comparison.
Heheheh... Stopped by the cleaners one day driving my Prius and this dude was there getting into his RT Charger... I jokingly told him I think I could take him... I'm waiting see him there when Im driving the SRT Challenger that was home under the cover.
i've never been in a fight in my life and a month back i bought a challenger...i stopped at the first bar i saw on the way home and punched someone in the face. of course it was a salad bar and it was senior citizen night...
god i hope this doesnt end up like the Corvette. old retired grandpas cruising around trying to relive their youth. the only young person iv ever seen in a Corvette was a drug dealer... no kidding
@Vlady14 yea man, i sat in an ss and i couldnt see anything other than a huge side pillar, and the hood scoop...i would hate to drive one, but this challenger is so comfortable haha
@FAKExANDxGAY yeah man, I sat in the camaro and couldn't see shit. . side pillar came up to my neck and the rear window was the size of a stamp. Felt like I was sitting in a death trap. There was no way I was gonna take it on the road. If I were in for a muscle car, Challenger or Mustang all the way.
@jonQuest82 totally man, and the trunk is so small its ridiculous... and i used to love the camaro too, but i guess i was being naive, and a little bias since ive my family has oned chevys since i was a boy...but ill tell you wit id pick over a challenger or mustang....a jaguar XF supercharged haha o man that thing is sexy (and its owned by ford)
I love the Challenger. Sure it's the heaviest, slowest and has a numb feeling steering. But the car has this kind of character when you drive it that makes you smile and not give a dam about its flaws. These guys kind of do seem like Top Gear where they're all about bashing cars that arnt British (or in their cases, Honda's) but yet cannot refuse a great car when they're in one.
I would go with the Challenger. Sure it might not be the fastest out of the group,(mustang,camaro,challenger,) but this is 'in your face' awesome. Plus everyone and their mom owns a mustang and camaro..
Whos the blonde haired geek-off rating this muscle car "Ehhh its not really my thing"....What???...Why the hell is this fairy doing an auto review on it then....Makes me sick
Paul and Todd --- you guys should not be reviewing Challengers -----cus you realy don't get it .But you are right every time I watch this video I want to punch both of you in the face.You guys are like a duck giving an opinion to a fish about swimming. Neither of you were even a wet spot on on your daddy's jeans in 1970 when the originals were out roaming the streets and could be had for $3,000 brand new. 3 years old were $1200 with a 383 cube and 440 ft /lb torque.
looks stunning in black. The inerior isnt all new because Dodge took it from show car to production car much quicker then the Camaro. They Chev guys had more time to play with.
I've been saving up for an SS Camaro but man I don't know anymore?!!... The Challenger is looks HOT!! Just wish it didn't more with all the features I want
i absolutly love this car but i was a little disappointed that the challenger had the same interior styling as any other dodge lineup. i just wish it had that whole muscle car theme in the interior like the exterior.
True, The only two downsides of a Dodge Challenger I can think of, is it doesn't have an Original Interior. And the rear veiw mirror, backing out of tight parking spaces is pretty hard... Other than that, best car there is. :)
i have a new 11 srt 392 and get about 22-24mpg on the highway with out vvt

@Jaunduskha the relevance is obvious...you're just regurgitating
jeremy clarkson...ad nauseum. he'd compare a porsche to a lincoln
navigator... talk about irrelevant, no one is talking about patriotism.
this car is about cool fun. that an average joe can afford.
"This thing isnt so spectacular. Its just a redressed Chrysler C300 which again is a Mercedes e-class from 1996" -bullshit... with a hemi and a pistol grip 6 spd??
bullviii 5 months ago
@bullviii
Yeah a Hemi and a god damn pistol grip is all it takes to shout AMERICAAAA FUCK YEAH ! Im not on some quest to discredit US cars. They do that perfectly fine all by themselves. I just find it weird that america cant build their own cars... Not even when they re-build american icons. To your grandparents, redressing german and korean steel and pose as american the way Chrysler and GM does today would be quite shocking. Whatever happened to american engineering and craftsmanship.
Janusha 5 months ago
This review was excellent. It touched upon all the reasons why I purchased a Challenger. This car says "take your namby-pamby little hybrids and soccer mom mini vans and shove em!" This car is about hookers, whiskey and flooring it when the light turns green!
I've gotten so many complements about this car. And what's really kool is, boys seem to say alot about it. 9 and 10 year old kids on bikes will say "Nice car man." And whenever I hear them say that it takes me back to when I was a kid.

@southstar44
yeah... Except it says "take your namby-pamby little hybrids and shove em!" by redressing a god damn 16 years old german Mercedes and simply putting in a big engine to get all patriotic over, fake "carbon" plastic vents and seats out of a mailorder catalogue. So much for patriotism, craftsmanship and the american dreeeeam. However Im sure its lack of quality and road capabilities takes you right back to the 70s.

@fminx328 Mustangs these days only really get hype if they got the name Shelby or Roush next to them. Other than that, they are just Mustangs. I do wish that the challenger was lighter and had more performance. Mopar Performance. BTW, I think that Chrysler should bring back the Cuda; even though that was under the Plymouth name- its all Chrysler, but make it a bit different than the Challenger, so its not just an identical twin. like back in the 70's.

To me there are two major points to the whole Challenger/Mustang/Camaro hating happening...
1. They really are 3 completely different cars, designed to achieve different things.
and
2. The day you realize your all in it together and celebrate the fact that the big 3 are even MAKING these cars instead of ripping on each other with 99% untrue or irrelevant information is the day you start enjoying life more.
Until then go drive a BMW.

I have been watching this video many times over and can't stop dreaming of this super badass Dodge Challenger. I own and drive a 2000 Pontiac FIrebird Trans Am WS6 in Black. As much as I like my Firebird, I am very crazy about this Challenger SRT8. If it came down to one car, I would probably trade in my Firebird and upgrade to this super muscle car.

Oddly enough i like the review. Its refreshing to here reviews from the younger generation that wasnt there in the late 60s and early 70s. I was very young but my father was right in the thick of it.

A street-lega version of the non-street legal racing model of this car was introduced at the SEMA car show last year. The basic concept is an entirely purpose-built version for speed. All ancillary trim, accessories and back seat are removed to save weight and cost. All you get in this variation is a pumped 426 hemi and the car. Nothing else.
So, my question is: when will THIS car be available to the public?

@EverydayDriver I don't see a logical reason to hate this show, maybe its not perfect, but compared to the other shows, this one gets all the points, you get the good and the bad, and i think the bad is more important to know so you don't get stuck with it and can focus on the good. i know i've said some stuff, but nothing against the show.
the big difference is how you guys do more talking about the car, rather than making yourselves the center of attention. and thats why this show is beast.

I love the Challenger. Sure it's the heaviest, slowest and has a numb feeling steering. But the car has this kind of character when you drive it that makes you smile and not give a dam about its flaws. These guys kind of do seem like Top Gear where they're all about bashing cars that arnt British (or in their cases, Honda's) but yet cannot refuse a great car when they're in one.
