G-Lo 2013 Dodge Challenger R/T Classic 6-Speed

"I purchased my first late model Challenger in December of 2012. It was a 2012 R/T Plus with Automatic Loaded Up with Options. My wife liked it so much that she decided to trade in her 2010 Camaro for a 2012 SXT Plus! We love or Challengers but I did Not like the MDS that comes with the Automatics. If you purchase an Automatic the V8 Hemi Is an MDS Multi Displacement System (for fuel savings. I traded in my 2012 R/T Plus Auto for a 2013 R/T Classic (Customer Preferred Package 27M)I Ordered it with the 6-Speed Manual, Super track Pack, 3.92 Axle w/Anti-Spin GETRAG Differential, 20:' Forged Polished Aluminum Heritage Classic Wheels, Uconnect® Voice 430N DVD/CD/AM/FM/Sirius/XM/NAV Touch Screen Entertainment System with 40GB Hard Drive and USB x2, 900-watt, 19-speaker premium performance audio surround sound system from Harman Kardon®. Had dealer install a Mopar (Made By Borla) High Performance Exhaust System with Polished Dual Quad Tips. I have owned many new cars in the past 25 years and most were GM Z-28 and SS Camaro's and One Firebird Formula. This is by far the most fun car I have ever driven. Most Bang For My Buck and Love The Roar of that Borla Sound Played by the Hemi and the 6-Speed!"

"I've only had this car for about 5 weeks but so far I really like it. I bought this car primarily because of its retro looks and its size compared to the camaro and mustang. I got the SXT PLUS which has everything the RT has except the HEMI engine and found that it has plenty of power for every day use. I get lots of comments and looks when I drive it. The other day I was at the car wash and this guy came up to me and told me how much he liked the looks of the car and if he could take a peek inside. He said he owned a 74 CHALLENGER when he was younger and that he was thinking about getting a new one because it brought back his youth. I can relate to him. This is a fun car to drive!!!!"
