Should I Buy the 2022 Dodge Challenger?

If you’re looking for a powerful, fast muscle car with throwback styling, the Challenger — especially in higher trims — is likely to satisfy. We recommend skipping the V-6 for one of the available V-8s, however, because the base engine just doesn’t deliver the experience this car is trying to sell.

1972 now a 2022 a 50 year later present.!!!

I owned a 1972 Challenger and 50 years later ordered one as a retirement present ( 2022 Chandler ScatPack Widebody with Shaker Hood). A nice ride for a muscle care, powerful with the 6.4 liter engine, a great look and highly recommend getting one if interested before this style goes away.

2022 Scat Pack Challenger

Your performance rating needs more stars! I've wanted a Challenger since 1970 and over the years it just never materialized. They announced the final year was mostly specialty limited editions. A friend and neighbor purchased a very nice low mileage used Challenger and he told me to drive it! He said we weren't getting any younger and its now or never and i said, xxxx right! Found a new 2022 Scat Pack in TorRed and a few hours later is was ours! I'll never be able to get the smile off my face!
