I really like the 2011 Chargers much better than the older version, especially the tail lights! I've been thinking about selling my Conversion Van and getting one....either that or a Challenger.

There is a difference between a sports car.

And a sports sedan.Don't beat up on that car, stuff will break, your talking to a Chrysler Tech lol.

The interior is killer in the 2012 Chrysler 300c AWD.

However, I was pissed when Chrysler didn't bring the imperial back omg !!!!!!!!!!!

Not going anywhere guys

Still a huge fan of the S197 and plan on getting another one in the future.

As far as the RT goes, pretty much just gonna get minor bolt on's/tune (once a tuner comes out) and try to get into the mid 12's and call it a day.

The 5.7 motors are torque monsters and pretty stout in terms of handling power. Their rods/pistons can handle about the same as the 4.6 but make a lot more torque down low... I believe it's 450hp/495trq. when supercharged.


Buuuuut I didn't get it for that reason. The AWD system ROCKS, even with Goodyear Eagle RS-A's (which I heard suck on RWD cars lol).

I went in for a test drive thinking.. "ah, it's just another AWD car.. no biggie".

I figure, the thing weighs 4500lbs. no way it can be "that quick".. after a lengthy test drive.. I drove away with one! rofl

lol not gonna even try to maneuver this thing like I did in the GT.. I might take half of traffic and the guard rail with me!

Geez, thing feels beefy as hell driving down the road.. supercharging it feels a little dangerous; to other drivers! Definelty NOT a sports car like the GT, but a whole different beast altogether...

Thanks man

I'll always be lurking around this site trying to help out.

The new Charger/Challengers are real nice cars.. you can get a bare bones one for about $31-33k depending on where you live. Possibly even less for a used one. I seen some go for even low as $28k on Cars.com..

I was considering the SRT-8 models, but no way.. too much money! lulz

oops! I meant to say I really like the 2012 Chargers....my bad.

In my state we have cops that drive the new 2012 Chargers as well as 2012 Mustangs.
