Reviewing: 2008 Dodge Charger R/T

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.

Pros — I love the Autostick this model offers.  
Cons — The only negative thing about this car is the limited sight out of the windshield.  A few more blind spots than an average car.

It gets 22 on the highway at 80mph and has 425 HP.  It rides decently, has satellite TV in the back for the kids, has a hard drive in the radio that holds 3000 MP3s, handles amazingly for the size and has enough brake under it to stop a freight train.  I hate that I'll have to trade it in at the end of the year for another company car, but maybe I can get a Challenger...

Pros — Just about everything.
Cons — Price and not as good as the 5.7 on mileage (obviously).

Performance - let the 350 horsepower, 5.7 liter hemi speak for itself, along with the amazing handling that comes with a beefed up steering and suspension. The ride on huge 20" inch rims is amazingly smooth.

Cost of ownership - with 16 mpg in the city and 20 on the highway, this is quite nice. =D

Appearance - let your jaw hit the floor, because this is one of the most beautiful cars out there

Fun factor - no matter what speed you're cruising at, this car is pure fun 100% of the time

Build quality - you have to look kinda hard to find flaws.

Pros — great engine, great appearance, makes you smile constantly
Cons — rear view visibility is hard to find

I love this car because it symbolises me, and the person I have always been. I am and will always be a bad boy every time I drive a too fast too furious car like this one. This is a bad toy for big boys like me and Samantha Aragoni.   

Pros — Performance and Appearance
Cons — Nothing

Reviewing: 2008 Dodge Charger SE

250hp 3.5L V-6 has above average acceleration, but it is no hemi. Fuel Economy is always 20-22 mpg no matter how I drive it. The fit and finish is impressive, no squeaks, creaks, or rattles that are common with mosr domestic cars. Performance and handling? This car handles excellent at all speeds, sometimes I do not realize how fast I am taking an on ramp or off ramp because it dives into the turn so effortlessly.

Pros — Performance, fuel economy, styling, handling
Cons — low roofline, no hemi, options add $$$ to price very quickly

all around wicked automobile. great on gas, good pick up, lots of ponies under the hood. brings back the charger from the old days, everybody knows what i'm talkn about, you know those guys from hazzard county, yee haww. although jumps are not recommended with this car. definate buy if ya got the cash. major head turner, especially with the limited edition srt wheels.

Pros — mini viper for the not so rich

Not a bad car, needed new front pads and rotors after only 6000kms. The multi function switch has a defect inside, which makes the wipers go on high when they should be on delay speed 2. Doesnt have enough low end power, mid to top end is nice. Looks great except i dont like the pointed crease in the very front center of the car. other then that pretty good, im satisfied, with the exception of horrible gas mileage.

Pros — good looks, comfortable ride, big trunk
Cons — Brutal gas mileage even considering the weak performance

There is no need for a Hemi in the Charger the 3.5HO I think can do the job and hopefully save some gas

Pros — Rides, handles, solid feeling car. Good balance with things like a heavy battery put in the trunk next to the spare tire for weight balance. Stereo kicks butt, leather is nice not the cheap stuff, Brilliant Black is a great colour, tons of leg room front and back
Cons — Aluminum Chrome Clad rims should be clarified as plastic inserts (not hubcaps) but bonded inserts. 6 speed automatic should be standard with the slapstick. I ordered the extra 2000 package and when I get picked up in a cheap st version of same car it has the 5 or 6  speeed with slap stick and yet ours had some options you would think since it has the bigger tires etc it would have the better trans mission????
