Better than I expected

This is a fun car to drive. The SRT-8 is pure pleasure. My cousin (next door to me) bought the Mustang Saleen and it's nice (same price) but the interior is nowhere near as nice as the Charger's. Everything on the Charger seems well thought out. You can even dim the nav system screen! The interior is better than I've seen on any priced car. It looks good and feels good. Plenty of room in the back seats and it feels safe when driving. You can't help notice the large lump in the hood while behind the wheel and then smile knowing how the drive will be. The power is there when you need it. This is the best car I have ever owned and I've been driving performance cars for 20 years.

This is the most amazing vehicle I have ever driven/owned. It does as little or as much as you would ever want to do. It does however have some blind spots. In addition to this, I have noticed a whine, sounding like a turbocharger, possibly coming from the transmission, as I pull in to my garage. Hopefully nothing serious. If it isn't, I will be very extremely pleased with the vehicle.

The Charger SRT8 is the most incredible car I have ever driven. The acceleration is awesome. The car attracts a lot of stares and questions. Be prepared for the question: "That got a HEMI in it?" Just be careful about staying near the speed limit - it also attracts the police.

WOW

I have never had a car with an automatic kick you back in the seat like this thing does. The first time I punched it, it shocked me. All I can say is WOW. And, in 2nd gear at 4,000 RPM is sounds incredible... you have to turn off the radio just so you can hear the car. Awesome. Speaking of the radio, it's great too. No need for aftermarket stuff here. The only real surprise was that there is no spare tire, and no run-flats. Instead, you get a little bottle of fix-a-flat and a pump that plugs into the power outlet. I'm gunna buy an extra tire just in case I ever get a flat. I doubt you can just go in anyplace and find one in stock. But, this car is simply incredible!

I purchased this car over the phone sight unseen and am absolutely thrilled with its looks, performance, handling, and comfort. It is a limited production car that will not be a daily driver or driven in wet weather. I am keeping the car in brand new condition so that it can be enjoyed for years to come. Hopefully it will be a collectable just like the original Hemi! At only 1050 miles the only issues I have are way excessive amounts of brake dust, and a transmission that has a pump and/or torque converter whine.
