2012 Dodge Challenger RT Classic - Best yet!
To date, I have owned twelve vehicles. My first, a 1964 Mercury Comet to my current 2012 Dodge Challenger RT Classic. The worst car I have owned is a 2009 Mazda 5 Wagon. The 2012 Dodge Challenger is by far the best vehicle we have ever purchased. This vehicle has the Super Trak Pack, 6-speed, sunroof, amazing leather and a rocking sound system that can play movies, blu tooth audio and read music from a thumb drive. Modifications made thus far; Magnaflow X pipe, Pettys Garage Strut tower brace, LMI cold air intake and skip shift eliminator. Do want a car that handles corners with ease, has amazing acceleration and looks great? If so, this is the car for you. We love it!
My Personal Experience/2012 Dodge Challenger SXT +
The best car I have ever owned. The only problem I have had in over 81,000 miles was the alternator which failed and left me stranded. This was later the subject of a recall. Rear visibility is bad. The 305 horsepower V6 engine is more than you will ever need. Front seat is very comfortable, back seat not. Rides great.

GREAT CAR !!!
Had a 2013 Mustang 5.0 GT California Special. White with black trim and decals. Awesome LOOKING car!!!! Great engine! Everything else was a [non-permissible content removed]!! Leather seats ripping with gentle use under 40000. Cheap, toyish quality interior and VERY uncomfortable seats !!!! Paint chipping by LOOKING at it!!! 2012 Challenger quality is twice as good, comfortable high quality seats, equally excellent engine, roomy, handles well, little road noise and good ride (not stiff like the Pony)!! LOVE my midnight Blue Challenger and; as great as it looked, don't miss the Mustang !!!! Still LOVE this vehicle!! Will always own a Challenger!

Challengers Get Old Fast
Dodge has a problem with Hemi Engines. After 100,000 they self-destruct. Had the Engine rebuilt for $5,000. New lifters, cam... Never ran the same. I was told by the service manager they rebuild 2 to 3 Hemi's each week. Challengers, Chargers, Trucks and Jeeps. Looked around the internet and many people have this problem. Dodge should do something, they know there is a problem. This is a great car before 100,000 miles.
