My fav car review. This is a car guy not like some of the other brutal reviews we see that you think there reviewing a book.

@JETZcorp super track pack gives it upgraded performance suspension and steering plus a 3.92 rear end like the srt8. the tester may just have been bias to a big engine. wish they would supercharge it. still my fav of the big 3

@GMCman82 I'm not sure what all the super track pack does, but I read a review on the R/T Classic and the reviewer said that it was one of the worst cars he'd ever driven in terms of dynamics, while at the same time he said that the SRT8's were some of his favorite cars. He even went as far as saying that, while slower than a CTS-V, he preferred how they drive!

Regardless, I think the Challenger image demands a shitload of power. The Charger can get away with less power, so I'd take that R/T.

@JETZcorp well u can upgrade the r/t with the super track pack and from what i hear its a good choice. didnt know if the track pack was at the same level as what the srt8 comes stock with, id take either a well equipped r/t classic or srt8 though. funny u should mention a 4cyl.s10. my cousin bought one to drive to work about 40miles or so 1 way and on the way home the coil went bad and 2 cyl.shut off. so he had 30 mil. left runnin on 2 cyl. had barely enough power for the hills lol.

@macus1305 It doens't weigh 2 1/2 tons. That's 5,000 pounds, which is the kind of weight you can expect from some trims of the Ram 1500. Challengers range from 4000-4200lbs. That said, while a V6 Challenger isn't a slow car (try driving a four-cylinder Chevy S-10 sometime) it certainly won't live up to the standard set by the car's styling. Honestly, I wouldn't buy a Challenger if it wasn't an SRT8. Aside from the power, the chassis package is FAR better than an R/T.
