First time challenger owner

2019 Dodge Challenger SXT 2dr Coupe (3.6L 6cyl 8A)

I was able to get out of an old junker Into a beautiful certified 2019 sxt challenger. People have made fun of me for saving some money and getting an sxt but, I really enjoy the ride the gas mileage (17.8 avg) for me is great. It's not loud at all unless u really punch it but I didn't buy it to race. Being a young parent too it's very roomy and very easy to put a car seat in unlike most other muscle cars I was looking at. The entertainment features are overall good I like the size of the screen the Bluetooth is very smooth and easy to understand. One lacking feature I have to say is no nav at least on mine kinda is a let down considering there is a "compass" button like I really want my whole screen to be a silly compass. The speakers it comes with are very nice as a bass/sub enthusiast they sound very good from the start. The seats are comfy and have a cool design to them. Trunk space is really good too fits pretty much any kinda grocery bags or items within reason. I think on of my favorite thing about the car is the dash, the gauges look amazing! Whoever is in charge of the redesign they got on the interior a few years ago deserves a raise. Overall I'm very happy with my new car and in a few years I'll upgrade to the rt or scat pack but if your a young guy or girl lookin to get a challenger but can't afford the rt or scat pack there is no shame in the sxt it's a great vehicle, besides it's not like 23 year old me with a 1 year old is gonna be racing anyone around nj. Id recommend this vehicle to anyone.

I've driven several variants , and I really like the all wheel drive GT version with the 8 speed ZF automatic and the V6 pentastar engine. On the mountain twistys in VA & WVA it was outstanding . Quite a confidence builder for my long trip. A convertible version of this platform would be a MUST BUY for me. How about it FCA?

Great car for the 60 year old crowd

2019 Dodge Challenger R/T 2dr Coupe (5.7L 8cyl 6M)
7 of 7 people found this review helpful

To start off, I'm 63, and had just got off a 3 year lease on a 2015 Ram Big Horn, with a Hemi. I loved that truck, and would of got another, but this time, I figured this may be my "last stand". I ordered the 2019 Challenger R/T, with the 8 speed auto, R/T classic option, spare tire, in Go Mango. The classic R/T stripe really makes the car stand out. Got it in March, and after 5000 miles, we love the car. The 5.7 Hemi, to me, is just enough power for overall driving. For a car with this weight it handles great. The Uconnect system, and Apple Carplay work great. With only these 3 options, we paid a little under $36K (Sticker was $39.500) For that price, and what you get, and what it does, you can't go wrong. My brother in law had a 2019 Mustang GT. Yes, he can walk over me with it, but after he drove my Challenger, he said he was sorry he didn't even look at a Challenger. Again, if you want a car that can get out of it's way, for a reasonable price, this is the car for you.

It's All About The Rumble

Out of nearly 50 vehicles in my driving history I've never owned a CAR with a V8 engine. Trucks sure, and some hot rod cars over the years, but my 2019 destroyer gray R/T is my first V8 car. Oh man, it is a hoot. So basically you buy a really cool motor and chassis and get a really nice car thrown in. And what a bargain it is. I skipped the $2500-plus for their big screen nav and upgraded sound system, went with the stock 'U-Connect' apple car-play interface instead. My iPhone connects seamlessly and the sound is remarkable good for a stock radio. The user interface is excellent. The car gets as good as my 4-cyl pickup for mileage - who'da thunk?? And ride is excellent, firm but comfortable. Supposedly the younger crowd (reads: more reckless) buy the camaro and mustang, so their insurance ratings make for much higher premiums - mine is the same as my 4-cyl truck again. This thing is a win-win-win all around. Could not be any happier.

My 3rd Challenger - I wouldn't drive anything else

2019 Dodge Challenger SXT 2dr Coupe AWD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)

I have driven Challengers for 10 years. In order to get all the options I wanted, I did a custom factory order. This time around, I got the All Wheel Drive version. It makes it much better to drive, year round. I have the Octane Red. I wouldn't change a thing. The only downside with the AWD is that you can't have both AWD and launch control.

What's that color?

Oh... That Guy, 11/25/2019
2019 Dodge Challenger SXT 2dr Coupe AWD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)
4 of 6 people found this review helpful

Love the Destroyer Grey even more, now that I have it. It even looks clean even when it's dirty. I keep getting questions about "what color is that?" and how much people love the color. So I'm pretty happy with the color choice. As for the real reason I bought this car was because it's roomy. In fact that was the deciding factor to buy this over a Camaro. You can sit a car seat in the back and have room for 2 others in the back. That's of course people that aren't that tall. The trunk space is fantastic too. I umpire and the trunk can fit all my gear plus extra stuff. Essentially it was about the looks and space. Also, being a cheap guy I picked the SXT. This was a really hard choice too. I got crap from family and friends for choosing the SXT over any of the V8's. I figured this much though. I can fix it up to look like any challenger but the wide body and pay thousands less. Plus I get 30 per gallon and pay less per fill up because I don't need to buy premium gas. So while I get complements on the car, family say but it's a V6. Good thing my goal is only to impress me. So if you can't deal with that, get a V8, but for me I'm pretty happy with fixing up my new toy that gives me 30 per gallon. However, there are 2 things that aren't great about this vehicle. Otherwise it would be 5 stars. 1) The gap space between the tires and fender. It's a 3 inch gap with 20 inch rims. So I have to get it dropped. 2) The sound from the muffler sucks (SXT only). Now I have to get a Flow Master to fix that. I'm not that guy who sits in my garage revving my engine to make to neighbors look as me, but I do like to hear that deep sound on start up and when I'm punching it just to hop on the freeway or pass the drivers doing 60 in the passing lane. I get it though. They probably figured daily drivers don't want that attention. 3) Updated: Was unhappy with the The 7 inch Uconnect Radio because it doesn't have GPS like the 8.4 NAV. However when you plug in your phone you can access your google maps and other android apps. So I'm extremely happy I don't need to spend $1500 for a new radio. So 4.5 Stars instead of 4 stars now Still with the upgrade I'm doing, like buying the "Air Dam" (front spoiler), 20 inch rims, which I would have bought regardless since I wanted 9s in the front and 10.5s in the rear, break calipers, and the other items mentioned above; it's only about 4k +/- more. I still get 30 per gallon for life. So it's a win since I drive long distances with this car.

Just buy one , you will love it. So many people come up to me to talk about the car, it is an attention grabber.
