Really really nice ride

I'm glad I waited for the 2011 v-6. I love the new pentastar engine and standard dual exhaust. The seats are the most comfortable I have ever sat on and as far as the car itself, it's just the coolest car on the road. Everywhere I go, I get a thumbs up or some one wants to talk about it. Maybe next time a Hemi!

2011 R/T 6 Speed Manual

Bought this car in May. Plenty of get up and go, great styling and just plain awesome to drive. I am not quite sure how to describe it but this car feels like it becomes a part of you when you are driving it (comfort and handling). Plenty of room for passangers (even in the back seat), lot's of room in the trunk and a climate control system that can be operated without an engineering degree. A small quibble would be the location of the USB port in the center console. It is a little difficult to plug into. I use it by plugging in a flash drive loaded with all my favorite tunes. If you are considering a muscle car, definitly give this one a try .... you just may wind up driving it home.

Challenger SRT8 2011

Fabulous car! I have the 6 speed manual which took a bit of getting used to again as I have had automatics for over 20 years, but this car is a blast to drive. Handling on curves is outstanding. The styling is awesome. I have the toxic orange with grey stripes. I have people stop me to talk about the car all the time and I get the thumbs-up at nearly every red light. Love this car. Never owned a Dodge product before, have had Toyota, Acura, BMW, but this car beats the $%*^ out of them for styling and performance. 5 of 5 stars for me thus far.

2011 Challenger R/T

Best retro looking muscle car on the market. Outside looks fantastic, especially in the new billet color. Interior is nice, but some aspects are a little cheap feeling including the center console. Plenty of power to leave rubber on the pavement. Great gas mileage foe a hemi on the freeway! Will keep this baby forever:)

Young Again Feeling!

We purchased our new 2011 Dodge Challenger R/T after years of owning reliable Dodge Grand Caravans & Chrysler Town & Country minivans & enjoying every moment of driving thousands of miles in them as a large family. Now that the children are on their own, my husband has his dream muscle car and we both love it! What we are most happy with: Hemi-V8 power and very good gas milage for such an exhilarating engine, remarkable fit & finish, highest in class quality, amply room for full size adults in front & back, hot looks & vast array of smooth operating features/switch gear. There is nothing we dislike, but would be interested in a ragtop convertible option and additional leather interior colors -- with only black or white with a contrasting color included a stunning blue) to select from now. The 2011 Challenger is very safe, affordable, excellent handling/riding & most comfortable of all-like coupes. How sweet it is to be young again!

Amazing Style

Let's face it. The styling on this car is one of the best out there. The perfect retro look turns heads everywhere you go. My SRT8 has a great roar under heavy acceleration and is quite under normal driving conditions. Interior dash design could be a little better, however Dodge fixed that with the new Charger which will carry over to the Challenger soon. No issues devoloped in the first 8500 miles as far as mechanical performance. Minor paint issues were observed. A flat spot was observed on the roof, but a good compound and polish seemed to do the job. A couple of very small chips in the paint were also observed where the front bumper meets the top of the front quarter panels. These paint issues should not be present on a vehicle costing close to $50k. Overall, the vehicle has been a completely satisfying purchase.

Best sports car I've owned

I've wanted a Dodge Challenger since 1970 when I was a teenager. Iwas set to purchase a 440 six-pack but after my father look at it he refuse to sign for, he claimed I was going to kill myself. Well, I'm retired now; dad's gone, and I've got one now. It's everything I've very dreamed it would be. I highly recommend the new one, if you can't get hold to an older one.
