Three months ago I purchased a brand new 2023 Charger GT PLUS in that awesome color "Sinamon Stick". RWD, 300 hp and 264 ft pounds of torque. Best daily driver I ever had. Incredibly SMOOTH engine, great 8 speed trans and looks that have me turning around to look at it when parked in a parking lot as I'm walking into the store. Listed for $43, 025 Got over $5K off with Dodge and dealer insentives. No regrets!

👍 Had an '23 SXT as a rental for a vacation trip from Chicagoland to Ashville NC last July. Loved it. Big, roomy, the standard cloth seats are durable and very comfy, great ride and performance. And averaged 33 mpg driving 75-80 mph. Some perspective - I had a Thunderbird SuperCoupe back in the 90's. The V6 Charger is bigger, more comfortable, about 600 lbs heavier and yet it's still 1 full sec. quicker 0-60 and in the 1/4 than the old hot ticket SC.
When I got home I snatched up a '23 Charger R/T from my local dealer. Would have been more than happy with the V6, only sprung for the higher trim because I wanted V8 Hemi before they went extinct.

I took my wife to go test drive one of these recently and while she really liked it, it isn’t something she NEEDS at the prices they are wanting for them. She has a much better vehicle currently and paid less for it. She just wants better fuel economy. I was shocked honestly. I drive a Camaro 2SS and the dealer is wanting almost as much for this base model V6 Dodge as what I paid for my 6.2L V8 Camaro with leather interior, heads up display, etc. That is nuts. They can keep em for that price.

To me, the Charger is how an Ameticam car should evolve. I recently bought a 2018 GT. No, it is not new, but I get the idea.

I got the exact car didn’t see launch control now I know when I get to 500 I will see it almost there

Reality is these V6 Chargers embody the muscle car spirit. The V8 cars are simply too elitist. The cost too much and focus too much on appearance and luxury. The SXT and GT give you what the great muscle cars of the 60s did: 300 hp, an unassuming look, plenty of space for the family and luggage, a comfortable ride to work, and nothing extra to break or fall off. Plus, a new Charger SXT will beat a lot of late 60s muscle cars in the quarter mile.

My first car was a silver grey 2007 Charger (baby 2.7) that died on me in 2019. I had to get something that was more reliable, but sadly i knew my options for a 21-22 year old kid with little to no credit to his name and barely enough money to afford lunch. My old man came in clutch and told me this will be the one and only time he will help me. So, I went searching. At the dealer my old charger was at, there was a black 2015 se charger on the lot for around 17k with 55k miles. While waiting for the dealer to defrost the car, my dad and I were waiting in the showroom and I kept staring at an indigo blue 2019 sxt plus Charger, RWD. I got to talking with my dad about it. "It's 10k more, they're practically giving it away. Wouldn't brand new be much better than used?" So, as the porters were pulling the black charger around to be test driven, we switched our choice to the 2019. Dad helped me get it, and I've been making all the payments, maintenance work, etc. Passed 60k about a month ago after having her since brand new.
Moral of the story, while my car may not be special to everyone else. However, she is mine, and that makes her special to me. I will keep it for as long as I'm able to turn a wrench.

Absolutely great looking car. Nothing beats the stability of a charger. Whats the mileage on these cars if properly serviced, before they run into problems?

[sherrikwhiteside]

I am in the market, and my focus is always in the midsize segment. Would you consider this car over an Accord or Camry?

[eddiebrown]

You can find them for around 30K now, (Aug 35+ was BS and Dodge should be ashamed for doing that to people.

Best car and it’s American god bless America

It's a solid overall car, but the price is ROBBERY. No Charger should be more than $30k.

It's an old platform. It's basic transport. Stellantis is milking these platforms to death and robbing customers blind.
