I would never buy anything from Chrysler or GM. Both companies make some great looking cars especially the Challenger. I just can't get over the whole buyout thing.

Default Follow Up On 2012 And Up Charger SRT 392

Any owners out there of the dodge charger srt 392, who could shed some pros and cons on this car. I'm thinking about a used 2013 or 2014. I currently own a 2011 mustang 5.0 GT and I love it still, its a fun to drive car. However, I cant get this 392 out of my system. This is the only charger I would really be interested in, love the challenger 392 also but lean toward the charger.

I like this car but they are expensive new, I wouldn't want to put that much money in it. but I can see myself in a used one a few years down the road.
It's a muscle car. It's nice. A corvette of the same year will abuse it like a redheaded stepchild. It really is about the only true "Muscle Car" out there, though. The Shelby and ZL1 would qualify, but they actually hook, and are smaller. The 6.4 Charger/Challenger's are about smoking tires and hooning around. They are also...big.

That's great, bravo, but why *********rself? You pay taxes? Good on you! Me, too. Guess what? You and I both have invested money in those companies. Like it...or not. Dead is dead, put the biscuit in the basket. Right? So why would you want your investment to fail? That's about like jumping out of a car doing 90 because you dislike that it's painted red. Makes no sense. Reminds me of those people who hate Obama and "can't wait for the country to fall into civil war/famine/etc. so people know that they were right!" Derp?

That's like saying a 911 will beat a beetle. You're comparing two completely different classes of vehicle.

Maybe Chrysler should rename their mini van the Barricuda. Makes about as much sense as that 4 door thing being called a Charger.

After driving a Charger for 2 years and now driving a Challenger all I can say is the latter is more suited for me and just flat out looks better.

Whoever redesigned the 2015 Dodge ChargerDart needs to be terminated... So ugly.

Hey, I'm sure the Charger is a great car and goes like a raped ape. But to call a sedan a Charger is just wrong. They just don't get it, they don't understand what the Charger meant to young people back in the day. Performance, coolness, freedom from your parents. Not 2 extra doors for groceries and kids.

There would have been nothing wrong with calling that car the Polara if they insisted on a retro name. Polara GT sounds cool IMO.
