My kick ass 2017 dodge challenger

2017 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack 2dr Coupe (6.4L 8cyl 6M)
74 of 78 people found this review helpful
I knew exactly what I wanted when I purchased my dodge challenger. I had been looking at the body style since it came back on the market in 2012. I had seen the reviews about it being difficult to see out of and the blind spots and how heavy the car was all the negative stuff. But I remember the dodge challenger form the the early 70's when it was a sexy beast of a muscle car. Then I saw the cars of the later 70's turned into big square blocks of metal and then all of the years of seeing the Honda and the Toyota's rule the road. So when American Muscle started showing back up (even American Muscle made by a french Company out of Mexican Parts in Canada) I got excited. When I finally saw my 2017 challenger with the scat pack, in Yellow Jacket Yellow with black tail stripes and leather interior. I had to have to it. From the moment that I pushed the start button and heard that 6.4 liter rumble to life I got a permanent smile on my face. Since I learned how to drive in the 60's I knew how to adjust my mirrors to eliminate blind spots. You can push the sports mode button and the steering stiffens up enough that you can feel the road properly. The active exhaust sounds so freakin' good that you find your self tuning down the 650 watt alpine sound system to listen to the engines music. The uconnect is intuitive and it almost links your devices to itself. The performance pages give you the option of seeing detailed workings of your car as you cruise and the timers let you keep track of your performance. Plus the launch control and the the programmable features that allow you change the way the car shifts, the stiffness of the steering and other controls makes the care flexible for various conditions. I didn't buy this car hoping for any kind of fuel economy, hell I don't care if everytime that I push the start button someone goes out on the tundra and clubs a baby seal to death. I bought this car because it is a beautiful evil wicked beast that is fun to drive and it makes me happy. If you buy one of these cars for any reason other than that then you will most likely end up bitching and whining about something. If you are a skinny jean wearing half caff/decaff latte drinker you won't like this car. But if you like to feel the road, hear the rumble of an engine, and feel the g-forces push you back in the seat then this is your dream car. I have had my challanger for 3 years now and the car is just as awesome and head turning as it was when it rolled off the showroom. I have not had one single issue other than replacing the factory windsheild wipers. It did take me a little while to get used to taking off without smoking the tires but I finallly got that down. This was my dream car when I bought it and 3 years later it still is. If you buy a car like this for the right reasona it will never dissapoint you. I didn't care if gas was 10 per gallon, I would not have wanted one less horsepower. It is now 2021 and I still have this car. It is just as awesome. The only thing that I have had to do other than scheduled service is to replace the wiper blades and tires. It runs as good as ever and still makes me feel great when I hear the engine start!

I'm 63 and have always wanted a Challenger....Worked for 43 yrs cutting meat for a living.. I am recently retired and this is my gift to myself... The car has been awesome, no problems and the dealership and salesman were outstanding to my wife and myself..Went on a little road trip and the car was quiet and tight and was really comfortable to be in.. The only thing I have to get use to his being careful when looking out the mirrors and the back when changing lanes...The view is restricted a bit and you just have to pay attention...Love the car and am looking forward to many years riding in style and comfort...... I have now had my Challenger for seven months and the review I gave when she was new, stands true today...Absolutely love the car, have had no problems with her at all.....The ride is still awesome, comfort and quality of the interior has been top notch... My wife is retiring this coming June and we are going to take the Challenger on the road and hope to see a good bit of this wonderful country... Just a quick update on the ol' Challenger.....Still runs great, looks great, very comfortable....Have had one recall on it for a soft ware update and other than that we are good to go...Went up to Atlanta and back to Jacksonville with my son-in-law to pick his truck, as he and my daughter and their two kids have moved back from Kodiak Al......We ran between 75 and 80 on the interstate and got 31 mpg.....

I bought this car to be my daily driver, year 'round, when I'm not driving my import roadster. I've already had several chances to drive in winter conditions and the car is flawless in wet, snowy, icy conditions. The V-6 has plenty of power with 305HP. So far I love everything about it and look forward to, I hope, many miles of service. If Dodge made this model as a convertible my roadster might find itself a new owner. UPDATE: I've had the car for over a year and have 8000+ miles now. Everything I said before has only been re-enforced . I've come to love the heated seats and steering wheel in the winter, and the cooled seats in the summer are a great feature. At this point I can't picture my Challenger not being in my driveway. In upstate NY the GT is a great daily driver.

10 of 11 people found this review helpful
Rented this car for a trip to Vegas. V6 basic car. First impressions were very touchy brakes but you get used to it. Power for passing on 2 lanes very good. Handling very good even on worn stock tires. Gas mileage was way better than I expected. Whole tank netted 35+ mpg at legal and above speeds on 2 lane roads thru desert over 2 mountain passes and thru one town rush hour. Just as a test from state line to downtown Vegas, pulled to slow lane on I-15, set cruise to 70, and netted 45 mpg for 40 miles. For other reviews about this car complaining about mileage, drive sensibly, anticipate slow downs and red lights and don't buy low profile, wide wheels and tires. Other comments are rather cheap looking instrument panel. Readouts on computer lettering could be larger. Only power cord outlet in console cubby. Makes for a long power cord stretch for my Garmin in left corner windshield. My recommendation for a daily driver and long trips, buy a base V6, upgrade to nicer seats with more power adjustments and go for a back-up camera.

It's a '68/'69 Camaro on steroids

2017 Dodge Challenger R/T 2dr Coupe (5.7L 8cyl 6M)
7 of 8 people found this review helpful
I've wanted a '68 Z-28 since then. When the '08 Challenger body style appeared, I noticed. When the '12 body updates occurred, I had to get one. The wait was absolutely worth it. Simply gorgeous/brutal looks, active exhaust sounds killer, acceleration (375 hp) is something else. Huge moon roof. Six-speed stick feels great in the hand, and works fine. Gas mileage: forget it. Handling: forget it. Rear visibility: forget it. But a trunk (with fold-down rear seats) for the ages, even with the OPTIONAL ($300) spare tire. Dwarfs WRXs, BMWs; same size as a Cadillac CTS. At 4400 lbs, it ain't lithe. If you want handling, buy an angular Camaro or a humdrum Mustang. If you want the ultimate evolution of the classic '60's muscle car, with a sound and straightline pull that will get your attention, buy a Challenger.

I've wanted a Challenger since they were first brought back. Finally bought my dream car last year after earning a promotion. I went to many many dealerships and took my time and was not disappointed with being picky. I got the last new 2017 bare bones R/T Super Track Pak in the south I'm pretty sure. Definitely get a V8 if you actually want to enjoy the drive, the V6 will never compare. Gas mileage in actual practice is lower than it was projected with factory setup. Car will feel slippery in the cold but that's because they decided to put 245s on them, definitely upgrade ASAP.

This is a cool car for a woman or a man. I just happen to be a female so to me, if a man thinks your car is 'cool' then you have a stellar automobile. The car is powerful and extremely comfortable. I had an internal struggle to get an automatic with paddle shifts over a straight-up manual. Believe me, I don't feel like I'm 'missing' anything. I thoroughly enjoy the ride and since my car is loaded with goodies, I couldn't be happier with my choice considering the traffic to work and pleasure driving. This car will impress your speakfreak friends and I'm sure your older relatives for pure comfort alone! Updated 5.1.22- still absolutely love my car! It hauls when asked in short notice & a true comfort/pleasure to drive even in traffic.

Great V6 but gas mileage is hard to obtain

2017 Dodge Challenger SXT 2dr Coupe (3.6L 6cyl 8A)
15 of 20 people found this review helpful
I leased a 2017 Dodge Challenger SXT. I wanted a challenger for many reasons but ultimately I was turned on by the 30mpg claim. However, the only time I am able to get 30mpg is on the highway going down a hill. I tried driving like a grandma for a day, super slow take offs and using several miles to accelerate to top speed but the best the computer showed was 25mpg. And, that's terrible to drive like that, its way to slow and people were constantly going around me which indicated it was slower than a normal person would drive. I have the high gloss black 20" rims and the car has the 3.07 gears so maybe that's what's doing it but that's doubtful because at 70mph I'm under 2k RPMs and the instant tells me 22mpg. So I don't know how they made that claim for 550 miles to the tankful but I have 500 miles on the car and have had to fill up twice already. It leaves me wondering if I should of just got the R/T if I am going to get this bad of gas mileage but the dealership I went to didn't have an R/T on the lot. Next gripe was the GPS. Sure it works as it should but its not Google (yes you can hook google up from your phone). The stock GPS sent me on a 4.5 hour drive to get somewhere that's only 1 hour away. I have no idea why it keeps telling me to get off the highway and then immediately get back on, it makes no sense. So now I plug my phone in and only use Google GPS. As far as driving it goes, it rides smooth and you can't feel it shifting which is pleasant. Road nose is at a minimum. Acceleration is what you would expect from a 3.6L, no big surprises there. The trunk is huge, back seats are roomy. As far as looking out of the car for blind-spots and other things, your visibility is great and I don't feel like there are any real danger zones around it. It is a big car but the only time it feels big is when I have to park it in a tight space, other than that it handles great and is a lot of fun to drive. Overall, I wished I would of got the R/T for the extra power but I am happy with the lease and will more than likely turn it in for the R/T at the end of this 3 year lease.

SRT 392 Six Speed Manual

I absolutely love this car. It's my "drive on sunny days and sunny weekends" only car. Great power, acceleration, braking, handling and looks! Yes, it's a heavy car but it has more than enough power and handles fine for a car of it's weight. Visibility is good from the inside and the tech features are state of the art. The six speed manual is smooth most of the time but it can be a bit clunky and temperamental at times. That might just be the driver though. The only negative I have about the car is the insane amount of brake dust coming from the Brembo brakes. I wash the car and clean the wheels and within 20 miles the wheels are covered with dust and darker than the rear wheels. It wipes right off but it's a pain. GREAT MUSCLE CAR!!!

I have a 2017 R/T Scat Pack with the bigger 6.4L Hemi and still LOVE it after nearly six years! Great power anytime I feel like punching the throttle and yet it gets better mileage on the highway than my wife's 2003 Honda CRV. We even prefer the Challenger to the CRV for long drives because it's more comfortable--great seats and leg room. I waited decades before I could afford a muscle car and this Challenger is near perfect. I've driven mostly manuals for nearly 50 years, and even I have to admit that the 8-speed ZF is wonderful, too. FCA: Keep making THIS car! HEMIs forever!!!

I traded in my 2015 Tacoma TRD Off Road for a 2017 SXT Plus. I LOVE IT!!! It handles amazingly and has such great acceleration. Throw it into sport mode and have even more fun with the paddle shifters. I have never been a fan of paddle shifters, but with this car, I make do! The ONLY complaint I have and thing I would change is the brakes feel much softer than I would like for such a high performance car. The only negative I have so far.

I have had lots of cars. Many were 2nd cars. Fun cars so to speak. Mustangs, Thunderbirds. This 2017 Dodge Challenger was different. It was bad ass looking and fun to drive. Lots of fun. Get the 8 speed automatic and forget manual. It's amazing! Be prepared to get compliments at the pumps. Lots of compliments. The sound that comes out of the rear is worth the price alone. Forget the V6 SRX. Go for the gusto and get a Hemi. The bigger the better. I got the RT. It's Mid Range and just right for me. Fast, but not furious. If you can afford it, get the Scat Pack and Shaker hood scoop.

Bring Back Hood Mounted Directional Indicators

My Challenger has been great - though I must confess that I only drive it for recreation. I have no complaints except to say that there are gives and gets with such a sleek body style...and you have to take the bad with the good. My only suggestion is to please reintroduce something that's been missing for years from Dodge muscle cars - namely, the hood mounted directional signals. Yes, i know, they were a styling feature on the charger, but they made these cars so distinctively Dodge that they are always sought-after by buyers of old Chargers First, are they intact, and second....do they still work? Agreed, this feature adds nothing to the functionality or safety of the vehicle (similar to sequential directional signals offered by Ford), but they're so darn cool...and so darn Mopar! I swear, if they were offered on new Challengers, I'd trade my 2014 in on a new one. How shallow and immature is that? But then again, isn't that what's it's all about?

Beware of transmission recall "fix"...

My 2017 Challenger SXT Plus that I recently bought used with 16,000 miles, I immediately took into the FCA dealership to "catch up" and ensure all recall work was done. The only one that wasn't was the cruise control where the control module had to be reprogrammed. Supposedly, the transmission issues (i.e. the vehicle still able to roll with the transmission selector in the "Park" position) which killed that Star Trek star was all fixed. But that obviously is not the case...even AFTER all this recall work! BEWARE! With a week after I was back from the dealer, I jacked the rear drivers tire up to do a tire rotation. I HAD IT IN PARK (but admittedly didn't have the parking brake on). With perhaps only a 10% grade on the street, the car after a few minutes ROLLED OFF THE JACK and onto the rear drum! (Luckily, I was not under the car - but beside it...and it happened slowly enough that I was able to get out of the way...). Anyway, was was EXTREMELY surprising to me (besides being the first car in 40 years I've ever had this happen to) was the fact that the car CONTINUED to roll down the street for about 10+ feet! This all with the transmission in Park!!! FCA has NOT apparently fixed this problem! So beware! Make sure your parking brake is well adjusted...that you ALWAYS use it...and never jack the car up on ANY incline - even a 10% one! If somehow FCA cannot fix this problem - just tell the owners and tell them (like I am here) on what to do and be aware of the serious, potential problem. Don't hide it until the NEXT owner is killed or maimed by their car falling on them! Mind you - I LOVE THE CAR. I just want to know what I'm getting for safety sake...

This is a whole new world of driving. Forget about gas mileage. You will automatically become 18 years old again. Drive this before you buy the 5.7. It's worth the extra money. Plenty of used ones around to save some cash. Dealer incentives if you want new. Sport Mode will probably turn this into an interstellar space ship, haven't tried it yet. I purchased a 1970 Dodge Dart 340 in 1970 which was fast. This car is faster. Exhaust rumble will wake you up. This is a mini Hellcat with more power than you will ever need. Crazy fast.

2017 Dodge Challenger Hellcat. First not an economy car but in ECO mode 23 highway miles and is a great ride and the Harmon Kardon sound system a true joy between listenin to the engine and tunes. 46,000 miles and one drive shaft and one radio replaced under warranty. Recommend extended MOPAR Max Warranty. Mine is 7 years 125,000 miles that provides a sense of well being with 707 hp. Michelin tires are my preferred tire as I don't drag race but drive the car like it was stollen and after 3 years is like driving a new car each time I get in it. Sure she has a full figure body and is a little hefty but solid on the road. Duramated the trunk and that was a great improvement in the sub and glad I have done all the things for long term ownership. Undercoat, 3M wrap, oil changes at 2000 miles, recommended service, leather mirror bras even with wrap, turn signal R & L camera's, front skirt camera, windshield camers, oil billet capture, dash cover, seat covers -ect. Full service, brakes, belt, plugs at 46,000 to keep ahead of issues. Looks like new off the lot clay once a year and 2 coats of Meguires Ultimate wax. Love this car and its reliability, ride, sound system, service and performance. Has been a daily driver but now for weekend cruising as just purchased a Dodge Durango RT which is so comfortable drive like I am on my way to church.

I was getting my American built Ram 4x4 serviced on another Factory Recall so I had some time to test drive a new Challenger T/A 392 (6.4 Hemi) 6 Speed Manual. Cloth type fabric seats were ok but non-ventilated and lacking the overall comfort of the leather or suede seats other Challengers have. Front A Pillars will challenge you to 'see' in front of you. Backing up is all but impossible without the Back Up Camera on the 8.4 Screen. The overall performance was as expected and put a smile on my face. Clutch force was agreeable with my old knees. Excellent Electronics and Nav. I guess the ONLY real issue I have with this All American Muscle Car Icon is that the Engine and Transmissions are Made in Mexico. Then, because of NAFTA, Fiat gets to ship them to Canada where the Challenger is assembled and then shipped to America for $1,047 that the Consumer has to pay. My Ram 4x4 was made in America with a Hemi Engine but American Transmission and drive train BEFORE Fiat took over Chrysler. So, FIAT now owns Chrysler/Dodge/Ram/Jeep and builds them between Mexico and Canada (some in America) and sells them here in America for $49,757 before tax, tag, and title... No thanks...I hope President Trump pulls us out of NAFTA. God Bless American Jobs and American Workers.

I have always promised myself I would never own a Dodge due to pain and trouble a 78 Dodge power wagon 4x4 that my parents owned when I was growing up put us all through. That truck caused me to have to walk no less than 50 miles in my life due to break downs, so when I grew up I promised myself that I would never own a Dodge until I saw the Hellcat and did a test drive in own, unfortunately I had to let the salesman know that there was no way that I could possibly buy the Hellcat as if I did I would be arrested within 4 hours for excessive speeding, or worse. So he introduced me to the 2017 Scat pack, not quite the Hellcat but she can get the job done when I want her to, there are issues like Dodge not releasing parts for it so I can add the remote starter and the 4g internet, I am about to file a lemon law claim against Dodge based upon that issue.

I owned 2 of these Challengers over the years. My first was 2010 RT. Great car overall - Leather, a RELIABLE Uconnect, heated seats. Resale value was...decent at best. My 2nd (and last) Challenger was a 2017 5.7 TA. Awesome to look at, amazing growling exhaust but a total waste of money. Grossly overpriced gimmick details, uncomfortable seats, poor instrumentation display, God- awful Uconnect system...the car had so many nuisance issues I decided to unload it. The trade in value is the worst Ive ever experienced and made for a terrible economic decision. Had I only leased it, I wouldn't be so harsh on it.

Started with a 5.7 rt plus, then an svt now the hellcat in go mango orange. I’ve had it for three years only 3k miles on it. It’s a beast. Almost too fast can make it all over town in 2nd gear. Gas mileage sucks but you’re not buying that kind of car if you’re going to worry about it. I’ve never seen what it can do speed wise but it sounds awesome with the super charger whining, the exhaust spitting it’s an amazing ride. Now I just need a winter car.....the summer pirelli zero Nero’s do not like even cold (below 40) weather back end kicks out. If you want an affordable (meaning not an Lamborghini), with a killer fast and sounding engine that’s gorgeous and somewhat of a sleeper go and get a hellcat (or if you can and want more insanity the demon). Love my baby.

I have had 5 of the Dodge challengers starting with a 2010 RT and had no problems with any of them including my hell cat 2016 and now have the 2017 challenger TA and nothing that the last person said made any sense???the seats are heated leather and cooled in summer with air adjustable lumbar..sooo? very comfortable.the dash is amazing to look at and has the early 70s look and are very easy to see even at night.the T/A comes equipped with the hellcat super track pack push button for drag racing which also adjust the suspension and opens up the exhaust which isn't a cheap option.so in short the added tuned track pack makes the car worth more at trade in then a regular RT that isn't equipped with the super track pack.also the car is lowerd a half inch to an inch over the RT for handling.who ever this last guy is must of allowed himself to get screwed at a dealership when he traded his in, because that dealer got top dollar from the next person he sold it to! Great car and absolutely love the functionality of the hood and how it rams the cold air into the motor.which is also something you don't get with the RT.

This is a traditional rear drive performance car that can be tame or wild, depending on your mood. It doesn't do anything wrong, given what it is. It is more fun than anything else for the price. It is never dull.

This is my first Hemi and first American vehicle. It’s a comfortable car with plenty of space for a coupe. I have the normal 5.4L V8 and that’s plenty of power for me. The build quality is nice. Wry comparable to the interior of a VW. The only issue I’ve had so far is the 8” Uconnect 4c infotainment screen is peeling from the back of the glass. Luckily I’m in the warranty period where the replacement is covered.

Big, fast car with power that tempts you to use it all the time. It is difficult to drive slow in this car, when you have that kind of power under your right foot. Also very comfortable, if you don't mind the rumble. For a heavy car, this car moves with authority. Been trouble free, too. Just be careful in the rain, and leave it in the garage if it snows.

I was looking for a Shelby and stumbled across this car. I wasn’t in the market for a Dodge per say. But I’m happy with it.
