Dodge Challenger

Aside

Are you a fan of the early muscle cars? Well, in that case, the Dodge Challenger is the perfect blend of a retro exterior and modern power for you.

With a sleek and sexy look, the Challenger is certainly ready to turns heads and grab anyone’s attention.  It’s the kind of car that the moment you see it, you just have to give it a spin for yourself.

The design of the Challenger is all about making sure you feel like you’re driving in style.  Everything from the dual round headlamps to the bright tipped dual exhaust just add to the flair.  To add to the incredible look, you can add on features to really set your Challenger apart in the crowd.  For example, there is the T/A hood that is a call back to the 1970 Challenger’s.  This hood scoop funnels air into the engine compartment to lower the temperature underneath the hood.  If that isn’t enough, then you can go for the rear wing spoiler that is not only made with strength in mind but is also designed to add down-force.  You can even add a custom stripe to the hood.

All that sleek style goes beyond the skin of the Challenger.  Inside, the car makes sure that when you’re driving, you’re still being treated to the best quality.  This is apparent in the new three spoke steering wheel that includes audio controls.  For your seats, you will find that the Challenger gives you an all new performance bucket seats that are offered in leather trimmed.  You can even get the seats heated to help deal with a cold winter’s morning drive to the office.

The engines available for the Challenger come in three forms.  The first one up is the 392 c SRT Hemi V8 which cranks out 470 horsepower and 470 pds-ft of torque.  Then there’s the 5.7 liter Hemi engine which has 375 hp and 410 lb of torque.   It also has fuel saver technology which gives greater efficiency.  The last available engine is the 3.6 liter V6 Engine which has been retooled to provide a 20 percent increase in horsepower for 305 hp and 268 lb-ft of torque.  With available five speed automatic and six speed manual transmission, quality is how the Challenger works with regards to options.

That quality doesn’t come with a sacrifice for safety, however.  The Challenger makes sure to do everything it can to keep you safe.  With systems in place such as an electronic stability program that helps keep control in an extreme steering situation, and anti-lock brakes, this vehicle is designed to help you outright avoid the worse from happening.  Should that come to pass, however, then you’ll find yourself cared for.  The body of the car is designed with a strong focus on passenger and driver safety.  There’s also standard front and side airbags and the seats are equipped with active head restraints.

Dodge Charger

Aside

A reborn icon, the Dodge Charger is a performance sedan with the look of a muscle car.

It’s a a ride with striking features and is truly one of a kind on the road.  The best part of riding in a Dodge Charger isn’t just driving one of the best looking cars on the market, but you can do so at a great value.

It’s easy to see why the Charger is so loved.  It all starts when you first look at the body.  With an exterior design that showcases the iconic horizontal body side styling.  It shows a tapered silhouette that’s accented with muscular front to rear fenders.  It doesn’t end there, it also features the signature crosshair grille.  If the look isn’t enough for you, there are plenty of options to enhance the visual design.  You can purchase the Mopar rear spoiler that looks amazing on the Charger but is also vibration free and quite durable.  You can also get chrome mirror covers to add that extra shine or to really stand out, there’s the Mopar body stripe kit to spruce up the exterior.

The quality of the Charger isn’t just on the outside, but once you take a seat inside, you’ll see that quality is all encompassing.  With the ability to easily seat up to 5 people, everyone is going to be sitting comfortably in the leather seats made from quality stitching.  If that wasn’t enough. then you can get a premium sound group that includes 9 amplified speakers and an 8 inch sub woofer.  Still not enough?  The Charger even has heated and cooled cup holders.  You can’t beat that.  It ensures that everyone riding, including the driver are surrounded at all times in the sights and sounds of the highest quality.

For the powertrain, the Charger doesn’t skimp on value.  You get to choose from one of two engines.  There’s the 3.6 liter Pentastar that is available on the Charger SE, Rallye, and the Rallye Plus.  It has a horsepower of 292 at 6350 RPM.  With 5 speed automatic transmission, you’ll be getting 18 miles per gallon during that drive on the streets of Manhattan and 27 mpg once you get on the highway.  Also available is the 5.7 liter HEMI V8, a four cylinder engine with fuel saver technology.  Both engines are best in class for power and efficiency, making sure you don’t waste any gas mileage on any trip.

For your safety, the Charger comes complete with electronic stability control that makes it so your car stays on the road even during extreme conditions.  All this and a four wheel anti lock brake system and available all wheel drive keeps your car safe and sound during rain storms or snowstorms.  To give you even more peace of mind, the Charger has reactive head restraints to compliment the leather seating, but it also has front and read side curtain airbags as well as standard driver and front passenger airbags.
