https://www.motor1.com/news/711092/dodge-challenger-dead/
In terms of size, the new Charger Daytona coupe is bigger than the Challenger it replaces with a 121.0-inch wheelbase and a total length of 206.5 inches, compared to the Challenger's 116.0-inch wheelbase and 197.9-inch total length. It's also wider than the Challenger by 8.6 inches; 84.3 inches compared to 75.7. View Quote Funny how they're not releasing the weight - probably 4600+ for the EV and 6K for the EV. So it's going to be even tighter to put in a standard garage - this is even wider than my 2500HD (& probably heavier for the EV). Fat people are going to have to get out of the 2-door version in the driveway and find someone to put it away... |

I just checked with my service manager at the dealership near me. Package of 4 oil changes and tire rotations for $350, $87.50 each.

I don’t think the new Charger is all that bad, it’s just so damn plain looking. Hardly any character to the body at all. Add that squinty looking grill and it doesn’t make for the best set up at all.

Well the daytona thing….
I like electric cars when it comes to something fun to drive. But the fake electric growl noise it makes is beyond stupid. I wouldnt buy a first year chrysler EV anyways but damn. I wonder how cheap theyll get when the daytona bombs hard? May be worth getting if theyre pretty cheap. |

Beautiful day here on Long Island. Took the SPWB down the Wantagh Parkway to the Jones Beach water tower and back on a leisurely drive.
There was this one particularly clear, straight length of parkway without traffic or any NY State Troopers to be seen. Figured it would be the perfect stretch for an "Italian Tune-up." Aside from the sensory experience of that NA 8-cylinder beast opening up, I was giggling about the seeming fraction of time it took to go from ~50 MPH to something approaching three figures, without the car breaking a sweat. I've had this car for three years, and it still never fails to bring a smile to my face. It (and the Charger) truly is the ultimate American (by way of Brantford, Ontario) V8 grand tourer. |

View Quote IMHO if you're going to go to the trouble, I'd spring for the Scat Pack over the 5.7. IMO with the 5.7 you'll likely forever wish you had the additional raw wheel spinning power of the 6.4. After having owned a new 5.7, I am also convinced the ZF is programmed differently for the 5.7s too - without a bunch of modding or tuning, you won't get tire spinning seemingly endless power at both the low end and high. Just my 2cents. ETA this is not a slam on folks that have 5.7s. IMO they are great cars too. But the SP is the one that's over the top. Of course meaning absent taking the leap to a HC. |

View Quote No. Every dealer does this and it is deceitful. 1. Dealer discount. They'll make that up in a ridiculously high interest rate (the way you counter that is make sure there is no prepayment penalty on the loan, then accept the financing, and pay it off within 30 days either with cash or a credit union loan - this allows you to pay minimal interest). It doesn't say that a trade is required (which some dealers actually do), but they will probably be looking to get you to do a trade in so they can fuck you on that too. 2. Incentives. They know if you're lucky you will qualify for 1 of these, but nobody qualifies for all. - The cash section is most likely already included in the dealer discount section. - Stand alone APR - negates the cash incentive, and you have to live within that dealer's business area - Prime standard retail - you must live in the dealer area. - Military - must be active duty; or discharged honorably within 12 months; or 100% disabled veteran to get $500 off - Employee - must be a Stellantis employee to get $3K off - Drivability/automobility - must have vehicle converted to handicap accessible to get $1K off (which would never apply to a 2 door car) - Non-prime cash - negates the other prime loan - you need shit credit to get $750 back. You probably could get it for $34K (which IMO is still overpriced) & high interest for a basic RT with almost no options. You will have the shitty 7" radio, no performance pages, no limited slip differential, & you will be missing a whole host of other things that are standard on the SP. It wouldn't even make sense to buy this to do a motor swap or pro charge it to make it a drag car - it's missing too much stuff. Personally I wouldn't buy it even at the $28K price. https://www.dodge.com/hostd/windowsticker/getWindowStickerPdf.do?vin=2C3CDZBT1PH695239 https://www.dodge.com/webselfservice/BuildSheetServlet?vin=2C3CDZBT1PH695239 Attached File Attached File |
