I drove a Challenger this weekend FINALLY! Unfortunatly is was a used 09 V6. I loved the feel, going 60 felt like 30, it was HUGE! So damned smooth, and the interior is all 70 muscle car. I LOVE that interior! The V6 was peppier than expected but that old 4 speed automatic SUCKED! Slow to kick down, not sharp or slick at all, total POS transmission, thank goodness the 10s get the V8s 5 speed auto! Yeah, not the quickest or the best handling and I would not buy a V6 in any case, but I love the feel! It abosulety feels like a 70s muscle car with a modern suspension, modern steering, and modern brakes, LOVE IT, just not the V6 LOL And are dealers daft? The wanted 29900 for a 09 CHallenger V6 with no options an 18k miles, they also had a used 10 Camaro 1LT with 2600 miles for 34900, CRAZY!!!!!
