What Owners are Saying About the 2009 Dodge Challenger

"The most awesome car in my 40 years of driving."

"My 2014 Challenger R/T is a great combination of looks, performance, features, and comfort. The retro exterior styling was a must for me. The performance was nearly a must and it does not disappoint. The modern features are wonderful. The car is very comfortable (and fun) to drive."

"So much better than expected"

"Purchased this vehicle as a daily driver. I have a lengthy daily highway commute so I figured an AWD Challenger would be a nice cruiser. It is! It's comfortable, quick and gets pretty good mileage. What floored me is the reliability. I have NEVER had an issue with this car. NOTHING. It just works. Traction in snow is remarkable. I love the shocked looks from folks when they see a Challenger handling the snow with ease. Heated steering wheel and heated/ventilated seats don't hurt at all. I honestly expected this car to give me headaches. To the contrary, it has been terrific. I would purchase it all over again without hesitation."

"I love this car!"

"This was my mid life crisis car, bright red 2015 Challenger 6 speed manual with 5.7 Hemi. But man, what a wonderful car. I had a 73 340 'Cuda back in the day. This is so much more car! Leather interior is awesome, electronics are awesome. I drove up to Sonoma last weekend. Got 24.3 mpg with a Hemi V-8. Then I drove it at a performance driving course there at the track, hitting 138 mph. Handled great, easily ran with BMW M3s and Porches. Just love this car."
