Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By icecold1: i ordered a go mango wide body scat pack with shaker hood, summer tires, carbon black rims, srt spoiler, harmon kardon stereo and nappa black seats. put the driver convenience and plus packages along with the auto transmission and navigation upgrade. was sitting in a black one at the dealer, but just felt the need to go orange. ill post pics once it arrives and i get the windows tinted. Interesting choice on the wheels - I like those standard wide body devils rims. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Butternut: Hellcat is king of the hill in my mind, do doubt. If I could have afforded it, I woulda got one, without doubt. I might have posted this before, but here's an interesting article on the gearing for the NA 6.4 compared to the gearing for the SC 6.2. neat R/T butt dyno article ( https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/a25271/fool-your-butt-dyno-for-fun-and-profit/ ) "Despite having 222 fewer horsepower than the Hellcat, the automatic Scat Pack briefly pulls harder in every one of its first five gears than the manual Hellcat does." "It's the same in every other gear. The Scat Pack briefly accelerates harder and thus feels faster than the Hellcat. But because the Hellcat pulls hard for longer, it's ultimately the faster car." No joke, and I mentioned this a page ago, but my 1320 is more impressive on the street 0-60 than a WB Hellcat. It just squats, hooks, and goes, all you have to do is put the suspension in drag mode, no futzing with launch control or trans brake. Hellcat will still murder it in the end, obviously, but for stoplight fun, it's a beast. Pulling solid mid-11 quarter times all over the country, stock (but usually sans seats) and on the factory tires ain't nothing to sneeze at. 115-117 trap speed, you can sneeze at that. :) |

Direct injection is the reason. Granted I only have the 5.7 but a mid muffler delete is a good thing. More growl but not obnoxious or horribly loud. No drone with leaving the resonators in. You will however notice the DOD more. I also put a diablo tune in mine. I've noticed a pretty significant change for the better, especially with the throttle boost. I've always LOVED the looks of those. Badass. As a former 2nd Gen Intrepid owner, I've always thought that the 300M line was underdeveloped for what Dodge could have done with it. |

Local dealer has this on the lot. Two things though. Not sure if I want to go from a Charger to a Challenger, and if I got a challenger, I really want the widebody.

It's hard to describe, but it "feels" much smaller to pilot to me. I won't lie - you will get a new blind spot that you'll have to adapt to - but for me, kinesthetically it drives smaller and more controllable - it more naturally feels like it's where you have placed it, if that make any sense. |

If you just want a wide body for looks, you can buy an aftermarket kit & rims/tires for less than the $6K difference in MSRP (& you's still have your regular rims/tires to sell to someone with a lower model.

The type of Challenger owner that wants a manual generally opts for the 6.4 (or 6.2). And even on the Scats the manual take rate is still low, despite having the highest take rate of any model variant from any manufacturer (where manual and auto are both available, so that doesn't count manual-only cars like, oh, a Civic Type R).

This engine is designed to meet all emission regulations, provide optimal fuel economy and performance when using high-quality unleaded “Premium” gasoline having a posted octane number of 91 as specified by the (R+M)/2 method. The use of 91 or higher octane “Premium” gasoline is required for this engine. While operating on gasoline with the required octane number, hearing a light knocking sound from the engine is not a cause for concern. However, if the engine is heard making a heavy knocking sound, see your dealer immediately. Use of gasoline with a lower than recommended octane number can cause engine failure and may void or not be covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Poor quality gasoline can cause problems such as hard starting, stalling, and hesitations. If you experience these symptoms, try another brand of gasoline before considering service for the vehicle.

We were just looking to add a manual to the stable to teach the kids, now that they're coming of age. The Ecoboost Mustang we test drove made more economical sense, but after the wife test drove the R/T I knew economics went out the window.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By rrhemi: I did some poking and could not find any confirmation that it had. According to autoblog the plant was idled due to shortage of semiconductors. Yes, they screwed us to keep the other lines open. You would think that they would at least continue to process customer orders at all the plants, even if they only opened them for a couple of days each week. I guess the upside to this is that the longer the plant is closed, the less are produced, & the more rare it becomes. |
