2009 Dodge Challenger SRT/8 - First Drives

[Strider2112]

I can't believe you think it doesn't look good inside! I think it's amazing! look at that pistol-grip shifter

[CardellFlare]

one of the best cars out

[moparhemi4261]

its a muscle car dumbass its not supposed 2 have a flashy interior and it looks just fine 2 me. plus it doesnt matter how flashy yr interior is if its not functional and yr cars always in the shop (mustang,camaro)

[SJLGG]

If I ever wanted a rice burner, I'd go for a mustang or camaro, if I wanted a muscle car, in which I have purchased, I'd go for a Dodge Challenger.

[fluchiano]

I HAVE A 2010 CORVETTE ZO6 AND I ALSO HAVE A SRT8 CHALLENGER ITS A SICK CAR I LOVE IT AND DRIVE IT MORE THEN THE ZO6 . PS ITS AFUN CAR SOLID

[microminiskirt]

@fluchiano the SRT8 is alot more comfortable and smoother riding on real world roads than Z06?

[srt8tirado]

The narrator sounds like a tool

[RSGuidesFree]

"The interior just doesn't look good." Neither does your face, so shut up.

[Moco159]

The Mustang's Interior looks way better, but isn't as comfortable as this.

[DARELL313]

that boy got 300 on the dash whoaaa

[BullyScholarshipWii]

Too retro? lmfao, that's the point retard. And this isn't some 60k luxury vehicle.. obviously it's not gonna have your expensive wood trim dumbass, it's a muscle car. I hate people that bitch about every little detail.. seriously. I think this is a beautiful car and way better than the mustang and camaro.

[LICKAmySACKcody1994]

@BullyScholarshipWii Finally someone that thinks the way I do! Dead on its a great car!

[BullyScholarshipWii]

@LICKAmySACKcody1994

absolutely! I'm definitely saving up for one.

[laromycornelius]

@BullyScholarshipWii

I personally can't choose btw this, the stang or the camaro, but seriously ppl stop sweating the small stuff and look at the big picture - it's performing its intended function exactly as it should

[BullyScholarshipWii]

@laromycornelius

Yeah, I must say that the new mustangs are quite impressive. The Camaro is alright as well.

[Apehangar]

I agree with you guys. This guy is a doucher. I own a 2009 SRT8 and it is far and beyond the best car I have ever driven. I have driven its two main competitors the Shelby GT500 and the Camaro SS and both feel squirlly. They can't take the g-force on tight cornering and their rear ends are all over the place. This is the best muscle care made. Beauty inside and out. Mine has color highlights inside unlike this one.

[dynaraton]

What a yuppie douch bag. The car wasn't meant to have an interior like a Jaguar you dumb fuck! It's a muscle car you idiot.

[healthyamerican]

interior too retro? thats the whole point dummy!

[swalte6325]

It is NOT on the same platform as the 300 I promise you that.

[ihateusernames300]

This guy is the stereotypical canadian. A wimpy little turd that doesn't know head from ass when it comes to cars or any other manly thing.

[halflife103]

@ihateusernames300 Hey now don't be racist. You will just cause shit where none is needed.

and FYI; i don't know ANYONE who likes him. Everyone on Driving Television is a little bitch who complain about the smallest fucking details. Don't Generalize a population. After all, there is something that can be said about your comment. However i 100% agree as to what you said about this Metrosexual Girly-man.

[ihateusernames300]

@halflife103 You must be canadian. Since when was canada its own race of people? You are a fucking liberal moron. Racist? Seriously are you that dumb?

[halflife103]

@ihateusernames300 maybe i was wrong about race, but rather country. also, why are you getting so defensive over a suggestion.

[ihateusernames300]

@halflife103 Because it was a really dumb fucking suggestion.

[ggwdodge]

Im pround my dodge ram truck went over 200,000 miles 2004. Lets see ford and gm do that.

[ihateusernames300]

@ggwdodge I have had three GM trucks go over 200K one of them had 323K. I'm not knocking Dodge but I'm not sure I have ever seen a Dodge automatic make 200K miles.

[InspireImages]

All my cars have been GM. Z28, Formula, Chevelle, Firebirds, Monte Carlo SS. This is my first Dodge and I freaking LOVE IT!

I went with the Red RT 6 Speed

[1986SoWhat]

damn this is amazing! Is it available with a limegreen paint like the oldskool challenger??

[swalte6325]

@1986SoWhat Just came out! Look up green with envy Dodge Challenger

[giann305]

This guys a fucking pussy.

[p4horror]

Kind of annoying towards the end when he says the Challenger is a limited market because of keeping it in the garage during the week & taking it out on the weekend. Lol. Not all of us are rich Mr. Rockefeller. The Camaro I got is my daily driver (luckily I only work 9 miles away) as well as my weekend ride. If I had got myself a Challenger SRT8 the same routine would've applied. These high payments I make each month to pay it off quickly, shoot I'm going to use & enjoy it buddy.

[p4horror]

I got myself finally last Jan. (2010) a Camaro 2SS for $35k but I do love the Challenger as well. I almost swayed but it was the price tag that kept my crosshairs on the Camaro. This guy says,"It's a big car, not a sports car but a large touring car"...No dude, it's a monster American muscle car. That's what I love about my Camaro, it's wide & long with a big engine. The big three did a great job with their cars: Camaro,Challenger & Mustang. It's a great time for muscle car lovers like me.

[OTL93]

Gays shouldn't be reviewing muscle cars. In typical female fashion he spends most of his time yapping about the interior.

[luxurykid666]

How can he be reviewing this car when this fag is wearing a Bench jacket

[macktenful]

im a chevy and mopar fan

[acstechtips]

mopar 4 life fuck ford and chevy

[pott343544jf]

46,000 are u serious?? the camaro and mustang have the same specs if not better and cost a shit load less

[eddiedko]

I love this car and i love this show!

[str8OuttaNaptown30]

good review

[VikingDestroyer666]

i love this car

[bismillahmashallah]

challenger owns

[camaroman101]

how are the audi tt, 3 series, and rx-8 close competitors?

[LesPaulisgod]

im slowly starting to like these more than the camaros

[razumfrackle]

Last April (2010) my dealer called me up with "an offer I couldn't refuse": - 2010 Detonator Yellow Challenger R/T Classic, 5.7 L, 6-speed --- fully loaded: leather, gps, satellite, usb, console trim, much more - employee pricing/1.9% GMAC financing - $2,000 free MOPAR parts and service I opted for: - strut tower brace - cold air induction - front and rear sway bars - backup assist - logo mats and door sill guards ALL FOR $35.6K USD!!!

[TheSheepherd]

Absolute awesome shape, but such a ugly interior...and please this car the handling he deserves !!!

[jonzxcv]

Dodge Challenger > Chevrolet Camaro

[quiteobserver]

the host is gay

[Zardoz99]

@quiteobserver Probably not gay.....just Canadian.

[quiteobserver]

@Zardoz99 lllllllooooll ;)

blame Canada ??!!??

[longvehical]

fuck you you asshole this car kicks ass and dodge is far from challanged

[wolgreth]

this car has soul written all over it.

[donnie23607]

how much do you think this car worth ? and what if its a second hand ? can anyone tell me please .

[lazor222]

The challenger is the best car out there IMO. To bad we live in the liberal age of hybrids. I have a feeling this version will be short lived. Same with the camaro. Mustangs however seem to be everywhere. Still challenger is the best IMO.

[triathlon4ever]

its a heavy clutch cause your weak and push it in...ricer

[MrMustang210]

not a challenger guy but looks sexy

[proxima]

This guy is a fucking homo. I bet he fucks his mom in the back of her Prius

[PSPHaCkErAOD]

fuck this guy, hes a fucking piece of shit for what he said in the beginning of this video

[StlRams53]

I fucknig love this car!

[masterm01]

american muscle 4ever!!

[jdubb6705]

My god who is this asshole? he's fucking stupid and anybody who says the mustangs better than the challenger needs there head looked at! what a fucking poser!

[Ratmouth66]

I just hate when these guys step out of porsches to review these cars and have the audacity to nit-pick these things we Americans really love. Im sorry our $45k car's interior isnt up to par with Europe's $120k car, our fuckin bad, wanna race? LOL. These review guys complain about things us muscle car guys promote, insane torque, commanding exhaust note, wild and exciting handling that gives you something to brag about. Dont compare Porsche or Toyota vs. Dodge, its apples to oranges.

[snoot87]

@Ratmouth66 Great comment my friend! american muscle is the way to go!

[Ratmouth66]

Im about done watching reviews on these big three muscle cars, reviewers are so fickle, they're putting muscle cars up to the test after they've been trained to look for economy features, no wonder they all hate them so much LOL

I LOVE the Challenger's width, the car is an amazing work of art to look at, interior looks bland to the eye but is definatly higher quality than the other two and that 6.1L Hemi is MEAN; yet the Camaro offers the same goodies for $12k less in a less exclusive package

[MarsWasted]

I LOVE MY SRT8. i spent a fotune upgrading it too. the guy is right the steering whell is big and ugly. i replaced it with a more suitable one and with that i had to trimm down the Collum. I dropped it 2" and slapped on Chrome & blck rims to match the new custom 2tone blck paint. flared the fenders.remote start. better intake upgraded the computer. bigger headers feeding a bigger exhaust system & to top it all off HUGE CherryBomb Mufflers feeding 3.5" GlassPacks. total cost of parts&paint 23,000

[panzr110]

LMAO, everyone else says the interior on this car is the best of the 3 muscle cars. What the hell is this guy smoking????

[s10eagles]

every one who reviews the challenger says the same thing...let me review one from an average person's perspective not some douche bag car reviewer who works for some gay website who probably drives a piece of shit Japanese car

[GEARC7]

After they fire this asshole he'll be back to a cooking show or working the streets as an ass-packer or get his old job back on Lifetime, LMAO!

[GEARC7]

I agree with dhruviator - this guy is a fkin dipshit. Who the fuck gave this idiot a TV Show? He can't even say chrysler right. Who is talking about the mustang asshole - the mustang GT has a cheaply built bland interior over the Challenger anyday. Get Off The Fuckin Air!!! FAG!

[dhruviator]

soft touch material on the inside which dosen't look good...this guy is gay

[rioter5649]

its beautiful..

[adogg619]

He said "coupes are not in style"

Are you kidding me? Yes there are a lot of stylish sedans today, but a big wide coupe like the Challenger will always be in style.

[bigloutv]

U don't buy the challenger for the interior this kicks butt

[JeepMan19007]

I agree dude. This car is built for business. I actually like the interior better this way. No frills, a mans car.

[jgto17]

@JeepMan19007 agreed, the interior says, hey who gives a fuck about the inside go look at the outside

[ChromeGhost0219]

thats it, this is my dream car

[thehondarider250]

fuck him. the challenger i think has the best feeling and looking intrior. my dad has one and trust me, i no a guy with a 2010 shelby and theres no way fords interior is better. im not saying i dont like fords im just saying ... hes into hondas and toyotas not american cars

[encino78]

@thehondarider250 I totally agree with you on the interior feel of the challenger! i think it feels great!

[thehondarider250]

toatlly man and its a smiple setup not insane like the camaro retro inside but not outside and same with the mustang in certain things. but man challenger is nice for interior this guy is a fag he has no idea wat hes talking bout

[colouredpictures]

@thehondarider250 I agree, I have a 2010 and the only seats that I've sat in that come close to being as comfortable are in the 2009 Aston Martin Vantage...it's a muscle car...it's supposed to be minimalistic...works for me...

[geekworks]

these things come with a man-card as standard equipment. toyotas don't, and honda is in real danger of losing theirs. I was at the auto show this weekend, and the sales guy told me that they make diesels on every chrysler product. In europe. howz about a 3.5l cummins in one of these things....charger maybe?

[JeepMan19007]

I say put a cummins in a Jeep! That would be awsome.

[tazyx]

Who needs handling when you have all this power under the hood. I prefer the old one.

[laidinusa]

i own a challenger and i like the interior. i love simplicity and the car has everything you need

[SeeGabeGo]

the only dodge i would buy. hella sick car but i think i would stick to the se or sxt or rt model and customize from there. i think the very constant trips to the gas station takes a little fun out of the car especially with these prices nowadays

[vladster7272]

I would stay away from the SEs those engines are slow, i know cause my charger is an se.Them HEMIs they are the way to go.

[JeepMan19007]

I don't know dude. If you can afford this car then you damn well be able to afford the gas for it on the weekend when you take her out. I'd go srt-8 with the six speed in either plum crazy or hemi orange.

[jgto17]

@JeepMan19007 it costs me 40 bucks for a tank of premium 91 octane gas, i get about 17 mpg average, gas is really not an issue, and i daily drive mine, plus some ;)

[jjx180]

I want ths car so bad!!!!

[hazemvirus]

then go get it! lmao

[surf403]

JUST DONT LOOK GOOD?? Fuck you! Your comments dont matter just like you!! Dodge kicked ass with this car!!!

[darkangelmnk]

@surf403

why doesnt he makes his own fucking car, fucking gay ass

[surf403]

@darkangelmnk Did you finish grade school you dumbfuck?? Learn how to spell and write dickface!! You are an obvious fucking idiot!!

[darkangelmnk]

@surf403

IM AN OBVIOUS IDIOT!!!? or im obviously a fucking idiot!!!

telling me how to spell and write shut the fuck up fucking whiteboy, check your fucking grammar then try to talk your shit, stupid fuck

[Rlnthndr]

@surf403 yea they kicked ass. all except their cheap ass interior.

[FutureMarine246]

@surf403 its nice looking but the slowest of the pony cars

[larsey123]

Dodge Challenger SRT8 (2009) is a nice car!!! and great preview!!! Dodge Challenger SRT8 OWN

[mp5wes]

cool car, i didnt know it was made in canada, nice to know

[bestofsevenrules]

Great review.....I own that exact car, SRT8 hemi orange, no sunroof, 6 speed....beautiful cruisin machine,rides like a caddy....handles beautiful, sounds really mean, and goes like crazy...I will never sell it, no one will build another car this great

[snowysnowcones]

Great review!

[Edrox5000]

can anyone tell me what color that is? its awesome but somehow i cant seem to tell if its Hemi Orange or ToRed

[24rob08]

I believe that is tored. I've scene one in person and wow it looks great; maybe even better than the Hemi orange. I have an 08 and it is bright silver metallic. Great car in any color.

[IrishChris1979]

Should have said... Porn star mustache! LOL  ;) Great looking car!! Thanks for the video.

[razumfrackle]

Red, no sun roof. Excellent!

[p90muscle]

nice car, great review
