2011 Dogde Avenger LUX

2011 Dodge Avenger Lux 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6A)

Black Pearl Coat Leather Interior Fully Loaded I looked at the Ford Fusion, Nissan Altima and the Honda Accord. If you want to stand out and have a car that is fun to drive. Buy the Dodge Avenger. I love this car! It looks so good compared to the above mentioned competitors. It is so fast with the 283 HP engine. Highway MPG is respectable and City is good too. The features this LUX version has are incredible. The UConnect system compares will with the Ford Sync system. It even does some things Sync cannot. The build in 30 GB HDD is so great. I have never written a review on-line before but I had to tell people to look at this car. It is my pride and joy! It is a little muscle car!

MOPAR OR NO CAR!

I wanted a 2010 AWD 3.5 Charger but couldn't find one...I considered waiting for the '11 Chargers but they aren't making an AWD model with the Pentastar V6 and I can't afford the Hemi price. Then 2 idenitically optioned '11 Avenger Lux models show up at my favorite Mopar dealership. Didn't even know Dodge was building them yet! I test drove one and quickly fell in love with the new Pentastar V6. Next thing I know, i've had the car for exactly a week now and I couldn't be any happier! Redesigned body looks great, drives like a million bucks, interior is wicked comfortable, I recommend the new V6 Avenger to EVERYONE!

If you are looking for a comfortable car, for short and tall people, and a smooth/quiet ride, with a sharp look to it, than this car is for you. BUT, if you are looking for a reliable car, than this is NOT the one you want!! we have had this car for 6 months and has been in the shop 3 times, granted it has just less than 80k on it, one time was for routine mantanace, but once was the check engine light sensor and just now the alternater. We are wondering "what next" we cannot afford payment plus fixing problems that should not happen.. sigh.. will not buy another Avenger, even though it is VERY comfortable and is sharp looking, it is not reliable, beauty is not everything.

Dodge Avenger Heat is nice!

2011 Dodge Avenger Mainstreet 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6A)

This car was a purchase for my son, who just turned 16. It is the Heat addition, which as far as I can tell, is the performance version. It has 79,000 miles, but is in great shape. It is an attractive car, think mini Dodge Charger on the outside. The interior is nice looking, with decent materials and fit and finish. It's not a Bentley, but it's very nice for its cost and class. It has many nice features, including a moonroof and bluetooth radio, and all of the extras work well and are intuitive. The car is rated at 19 city mpg and 29 highway. It has the V6, which is strong and fun (maybe too much so for a 16-year-old, but I digress). Most importantly for a new driver, it has a lot of safety features, such as front wheel drive, airbags everywhere, traction control, and, of course, antilock brakes. It was also an IIHS top safety pick back in 2011, so if anything can make me feel at ease with my soon-to-be licensed son driving around, this car is it.
