2008 Dodge Charger User Reviews

2008 Charger Daytona R/t — This car is beyond awesome!!! It handles like a dream and the 350 horsepower is more than enough to please. I spotted this car at the dealer, took a cell phone picture and sent it to my wife, her two word reply, "Buy It!", was all it took to solidify the deal, lol. I sat down with the Sales Manager and worked a deal out the door for $28,780.00. But before I signed anything I brought my wife in to drive it, 2 hours later we took delivery. It is the Daytona R/T in Hemi Orange Pearl with a build number of 676 out of 1,650 made. The interior seats our family of 5 comfortably and this car is rock solid, no noise, no rattles, nothing but awesome. I cannot drive this car without getting attention (including the police, lol) everywhere we go. We have a 2008 Lincoln MKZ with the 265 hp V-6 and the Charger does better on gas. I was getting 20 MPG in the Daytona and the Lincoln was doing 19 MPG when we took them both on vacation. I don't miss my Ram at all, except when needing to move something, lol. If you've got the money and want some modern muscle, you've got to get one of these bad boys...You only live once.

Super Combination Of Fun And Practical, All Sports Car Even With The Rear Doors... — 2008 Hemi orange Daytona - 7k miles so far - 1 ticket. Love this car! I traded a porsche 911 in for this Daytona and figured that I'd have buyer's remorse at some point - but not yet! This car does it all with serious practicality - especially love the fold down rear seats - and yet still gets cheers, wide eyed kid stares and catcalls from everyone yu drive by. The strobe stripes are a bit much, but the classic orange looks great even when dirty, and the daytona interior is worth every penny spent for the extra comfortable seats. Only gripes so far are the tendency for the headlights and windshield fogging up all the time. It seems like no matter the weather, I am always fighting condensation on the front surfaces. This car has passed the 4 guy, 6' plus tall roadtrip test with flying colors, and not bad on gas. Cruise control works great, but stick is in an awkward place near the wheel rim. Guages are excellent at night. AC is nice, heated seats will roast you if you want them to, but heater seems weak. Needs 89 octane - really dislikes 87 or even 93. Underhood seems hot as hell, but radiator seems to handle it - guages read normal. Warranteed replacement of rear differential seals at 6000 miles. Tightened up metal seams at back of floorpans on underside with rtv and undercoat as they looked like probable future trouble spots. Nice suspension feel all around. I will report back on winter driveability if I can find some decent snowtires and rims to fit over these massive front brakes.

I Would Recommend This Vehicle To Anybody Who Likes To Have Fun Driving While Looking Slick. — I bought this car with 300 miles on it due to a lot of people wanting to test drive it without intending on buying it. My wife fell in love with it because of it's power and quickness. Before the charger we bought an 03 Impala and it is a V6 so it doesn't have that HEMI power. The charger gets better gas mileage than I expected. I drove it across the country and from California to Wisconsin my total was about $300 for gas. I was expecting the total to be around $500 or greater. We are really happy with our purchase and would recommend this vehicle to anybody who could afford it.

Awesome, Fun Car To Drive — The car has great performance. Handles in the snow like dream. Acceleration is powerful yet not over the top. I'm 6'4" 215lbs and the car fits me well both in leg room and head room. One of the best cars I've ever owned.

Need For Speed — Amazing car! Fast, powerful, comfortable, spaciouse and stylish! This is my favorite car I have owned and i have owned a few! Never breaks down, good on gas for a V8! I have had a lot of fun with this car!
