Re: Picked up a new Dodge Challenger!

Those cars are amazing I was at the dodge dealer today, my mom was trading in her 07 Caliber for a 08 300c and I was looking at them, they had a 6.1L Hemi/6spd on the showroom it was beautiful and then a black one outside with black rims, looked amazing.

Re: Picked up a new Dodge Challenger!

A guy around my area bought a bare bones V6 model. I mean, what the hell is the point in buying a Challenger if it doesn't have the 6.1?

Re: Picked up a new Dodge Challenger!

I see probably 3 of those cars a day and they are all V6's Its a nice car, I sat in the SRT-8 at the auto show, I love the Seats in the SRT cars soo comfy.

The security guard at my old job had a friend that had a Challenger and did a custom procharger setup on it put new injectors in it, exhaust and made around 500bhp. Pretty much a beast.
