About my 2016 Challenger SXT

Muscle car buffs listen in here. I am retired and lived through the most awesome 60s 'muscle car' era...and have never had a muscle car. Once deciding it was time to get one (before I die!) I spent a great deal of time doing research on them. After going for a test drive in Challenger, the decision was easy. WAY cooler than Mustang, Charger, or Camaro. I was really impressed by its giddyup from only a 3.6l 305hp mopar engine. "Out of hole" from a dead stop is not as kickass fast as I'd like, but at a '40mph+ roll', she takes off like a rocket! VERY impressed. So I decided to lease a jazz blue SXT, and had the dealer add a rear spoiler with posts, and it looks RETRO AS HELL!! I really like it!! Only negative is now that I'm older since the car rides very low to the ground, it takes a pretty good effort for me to get out of the car. Getting about 19-22mpg's and quite frankly, handles real well on snow and ice for a rear wheel drive. Hey is Dodge gonna pay me for the FREE ADVERTISING HERE??? lol.

Front seats

2016 Dodge Challenger SXT Plus 2dr Coupe (3.6L 6cyl 8A)

I have the SXT plus model Leather sun roof heated steering wheel cooling seats most all of the bells and whistles. I wish I had read the review I'm about to give before making the purchase, Last vehicle was 14 Durango and loved it. The 16 Challenger is the most uncomfortable car I have ever owned. Even in the leather trim! It's just not a comfortable ride. Handles well runs good even for the 6 cyl. I dislike the front seats.you will notice a lot of used ones at most dealers and I now know why, they look great run well have good options to choose from. Dodge did a lot of things right on this car, they just need to rework the front seats. Anyone interested in a new Challenger with only 6 k miles? I'm looking to get out of mine

Looks like a 1971 but is very reliable

I bought the R/T plus in redline red tri coat pearl with the flat black stripe and chrome mags. It looks like a 1971 inside and out. My car has the navigation, heated and cooled seats, auto trans, blind spot detection and backing camera. I have added the front and rear strut tower braces and a cold air intake. Wish the car came with these as they make it sound and handle so much better. Consider the upgraded paint like I did. It looks great in the sunshine!

Challenger STX Base Model

This car is amazing in every way. Gas mileage on the highway is awesome around 28-30mpg. I bought the base coupe with 1 upgrade which is the sirrius radio. You dont need more than this as the car is loaded. The seats are very comfortable, and the power lumber works great. At 6' tall I could wear a cowboy hat if I wanted there is so much headroom. The power/ handling is off the charts for a car this big. The trunk is huge, huge, huge! I'm 56 years old and this is my 1st New Car. I never found one that was worth buying till now. I added 2 racing stripes, and a rear spoiler, and i get compliments all the time and big thumbs up. The Dark blue paint is icing on the cake.
