I bought one of these for my daughter's first car. It was very dependable. Unfortunately a tree fell on it. I bought her a nice 2017 Charger V6 to replace it. The new car has a lot more power and gets better fuel mileage. That Challenger was a very good car though.
If you have this body style, get a tune put into it. It makes a HUGE difference. I have a 2010 model with dual Flowmasters exhaust, CAI, and a tune. 305 hp, 280 torque with 93 octane tune. A 2010 without the mods, only 250 hp and 250 torque. The 2011 and newer are 305 hp and 267 torque. I would estimate that a tune would give about 15 hp and 15 torque increase, but someone that has the tune can confirm. The 2010 v6 is about 3800 pounds. If you want a fast , back roads street hugging car, get the v8 or a v6 or v8 Mustang or Camaro . Even a v6 Mustang or v6 Camaro is about as fast as a v8 Challenger. I have the Challenger and love my car. Just buy a car for what YOU are looking for, just know the difference in the two type of cars and you will not be disappointed. I drove Mustangs for 25 years straight, and got many compliments, but no where near as many compliments as I do with my challenger.
slc9800gtx get some bbk headers you won't regret it it will boost your hp by 30-50 and try some high flow cats with a bigger mm throttle body. those might add even more for you even tho u could get another tune.
V-6 Challengers are highway cars. I just went to Kansas and got mid 31 to low 32 mpg with cruise control at 70. Granted I do have the 5sp auto. Wish I had the 8sp
@hozzyboy Motorweek is a production of maryland public broadcasting and has been on the air since 1981. John Davis, the host of the show is also the shows creator and executive producer. He is an expert who knows what he is talking about.
There has been a lot of variations in 0-60 times. What many don't realize (including the testers themselves possibly) is Dodge changed transmissions up and went with a 5spd automatic with the autostick option (even though they still list it as a 4 spd in some literature). They made the change in later 2009, so a few 09s and all 2010s will have the revised gearing. Whether this one was actually a 5spd or not....?? Not here to give any opinions, just thought I'd share what I heard. :)
A colleague of mine often complained about two of his Chrysler cars having problems. It turns out he learned they put engines that were too low of displacement to handle the weight of the car for what would be considered a normal car life. I once owned a Plymouth Breeze. Not the most expensive car I've ever owned, but one of my favorites. The engine was actually well suited for the weight. Imagine that. I don't hate Chrysler, but stop putting these itty bitty engines in jumbo cars...
@87PowerMan - Done. Just wait another month untill the 2011 gets the new Pentastar V6 - 310 Hp and 28 MPG Highway. I think they say it will be about 2K more base though ...
All those saying, "this car is great if you care about fuel prices," are dumb. The 2011 mustang GT gets BETTER gas mileage (17 city, 26 highway) at 412 hp, and does 0 to 60 in 4.3 seconds. I won't even mention the 2011 V6's stats.
Yeah, but can a Mustang fit for full-sized for cruising up and down Main Street on Friday night? Does it have the same stable and comfortable highway ride derived from the Mercedes S-Class chassis, as the Challenger? Not everybody is looking for the ultimate speed per cubic inch while carrying one passenger. Some people have practical concerns like friends or maybe even a child seat, or maybe they just appreciate a more comfortable car which makes a car like the Challenger a lot more practical than a one-trick pony like the Mustang. The Challenger is very customizable. The V6 versions can be thought of more as a replacement or substitute of the large mid-sized Cutlass Supremes Thunderbirds and Monte Carlos of the 70s 80s amd 90s, as sporty looking comfortable "personal luxury coupes". The stiff, overpriced ones with the hemis are the ones more meant to deal with people that only have one concern, being speed. Both are valid markets that the Challenger addresses perfectly, but the Camaro and the Mustang don't address the less sports-oriented sporty luxury comfort crowd at all. Did I mention the solid Bulletproof and quiet S-Class chassis riding underneath this thing for comparatively very little money? I just wish they would just some more cosmetic changes, while keeping it retro it makes it harder and harder to sell a new car that looks like a fifteen-year-old car. Maybe restyle it to make it look more like the two-door Charger like the Dukes of Hazzard had. Headlights that flip open would also be a great touch. And for the love of God offer a bench seat option. Some of us like to sit right next to our Honeys at the drive-in movie without that giant console getting in the way. T-tops also would be a fun special edition option. And convertibles. And a full luxury trim level with a tidy vinyl roof like the original Camaros had, chrome accents around the grill, mirrors, taillights Etc, Comfort oriented interior and even more quiet tuning. There used to be more luxury oriented versions of the Mustang and Camaro like the Berlinetta but they dropped that several Generations back. Dodge went 75% of the way with this retro look and appeal, just never have seen able to hit that last 25% that really can make a car a collectible classic forever.
@@Jack_Stafford the only thing took from an s class chassis my friend is the control arm front suspension from the W220 S Class, a 24 year old car. As well as that, the LC platform (08-15 Challengers used this) wasn’t derived from any S Class.
@@TonySoprano-p6i I said S class, but should have just said "Big Benz". I was referring to the S class mainly when it came to size class and comfort. But they share A LOT with various Benzes. Feel free to google. It was based on the W210 platform, shares transmissions, front and rear suspension parts, steering column, many electronics, and on and on. And they still work and perform great today on a VERY afordable car, even if it is "luxury" tech and developed some years ago, doesn't make it any less excellent. AMG even assisted with the SRT packages. No way to deny it, these cars share FAR more in common than they differ. It's actually an excellent business case of how to tailor the same platform to different markets. Keep what works, change only what needs it.
@@Jack_Stafford Yeah that sounds about right, the 300 and Charger are basically a mix of the W210 and W211 even today, here in Europe we even got the first and second gen 300/Thema with a diesel, sourced from Mercedes (OM642). Good chassis, it was falling a bit behind before they released the newer platforms however.
Actually, if it is an Ecotec 02-05 Cavalier, its 0-60 with an automatic is 8.4 seconds. The Challenger 3.5 is being rated anywhere from 8.1- 9 seconds 0-60. It is possible.
yes, at least 3 V8 options, 300hp 375hp and 425hp, I have the SXT/SE, shave off 500lbs, with a 5 speed manual, then it might be up there with the competition.
@Ciper83 Or you could just buy a 2011 Mustang V6 for the same money with 305 hp... What the Challenger SE is, is a rental fleet special thats why it wasn't even available with a manual tranny
no sorry i meant for your estimations it will get about 32 mpg, i'm just guessing that based on the rating for the chrysler 300c. i think the U.S. estimates the v6 at 17 and 25. you should check out the chevrolet camaro with 304 hp and 18/29 mpg in U.S. ratings
i'm assuming you are referring to the diesel...everyone knows diesels are more efficient than gasoline engines...but here in the states we try to calculate our mpg a little more accurate than you do over in Britain. In your gallons, the challenger will get about 32 mpg combined
@Mike Haggar There's a company by the name of RIPP that makes $5000 Supercharger kits for the 3.6L V6 Chargers, Challengers, and Jeeps. Puts them right at 450whp. Not pocket change, but if you're buying new it's still cheaper than the base V8.
keep in mind the Ripp supercharger was made for the pentastar engine (3.6l v6) where as you will need the Vortech V3 supercharger for the EG motor (3.5l v6)
2010 Dodge Challenger SXT Plus, Is a 3.5 V6 But it has 305 Horse Power..! I Love my Dodge Challenger SXT Plus..! :-) but my has R/T Logo on it..! I would like to have More Horse Power & the R/T SRT8 & Ford Mustang GT 500, Chevy ZR1 Corvette 650 Horse Power..! i would like to beat them all in the Competition..! o_O
I wouldn't call it performance. Chrysler Said they Designed the V6 Models with Family in mind (hence the massive back seats and trunk space). If your trying to get a performance car Get an R/T or (if you can afford it) a SRT8 :P. Otherwise, It's not bad for a V6 model.
So Ford can put 300 and something horsepower in their turbo charged 4 cylinder engine but Dodge put 250 horsepower in a v6. They should of put 350 horsepower in the v6???
You do make a good point on performance. Keep in mind though, the Camaro interior is absolute trash. The plastics used in the Chevy are about on par with your favorite garbage can. The worst gauge cluster and cheapest dashboard ever. I'd probably take the Challenger V6 over a Camaro despite the performance disadvantage. The Camaro's interior is horrible -- next to the new Mustang interior, its not even competitive.
yea. About 4,000lbs , or around that. That muscle cars gotta go on about a thousand pound diet and it'll be fast! Same with the SRT8! Awesome car no matter tho! No doubt about that!
These cars are great. I have a 2019 and the dicks bash it due to it having a V6 but I tell them I’ll race ya anytime. Funny how they always say no....hmm
@xoquixxoqafxo I guess you could if you are a short guy. I'm 6'4 and can barely fit in a Mustang. It is so tight and uncomfortable. The Camaro and Challenger have great leg room and look better IMO. Dodge could have did a better job with this V6. Even if they gave the Mustang leg room, I'd still hate it because there's too many Mustangs on the road and they all look the same. You can't standout in a car that everyone has!
@Stevenhiggles Everyone knows what mileage your "no head turning Altima" gets. They just want the look of a cool looking car for a cheaper price. It's a heavy ass car, what kind of mileage did you expect? They aren't trying to race anyways with this underpowered V6. You could leave them in the dust all day and they still wouldn't care.
@kenny1309 Seriously thinking about getting one, I'm not that old... can't even drive yet... but I have a little under $1000 bucks in the bank for it. That won't even cover taxes... :-(
slower 0-60(7.8) as camry hybrid of the time... a rav4 V6 and venza V6 could Walk this thing around the lake lmaoo , even the corolla xrs... what a dog 😭
Wow thats pretty weak fuel economy for what you get. 25 Hwy and 17 City? The Mustang GT 05-10 gets that and 300hp. Hell even the 300hp V6 Camaro does better. I think its time to put Chrysler down. Unimaginative, heavy, and dated technology just wrapped in a new package. As beautiful as the body is, this overweight car really suffers because of this.
Dont get me wrong,250hp is ALOT for 3.5 liters,but fuck chrylser put the challenger on a diet,you got looks down pat,but in handling,fuel economy and performace you fall short,imagine how quick the SRT would be with 3500lbs or so.I mean fuck,my cavalier is quicker than this challenger se.And 25 mpg just isnt worth a 16 sec 1/4 mile.
very well a piece of shit and for openers the engine thats in that car is under powered the car is to heavy for this engine and one more thing its not american it fiat built so there you have it
So glad I waited to 2011 to buy Challenger SE. Love the 3.6v6/305hp.
@@husky3g i got a 2014 sxt plus challenge sport 305 hp cost me 18 grand in 2017
3.5 sounds way more like muscle 3.6 sounds like a Honda Accord
I have a 2013, V6, fantastic car
@@rylanboutelle6577 a V6 Accord would embarrass this car.
How about now?

It’s still so hilarious that dodge just dug around in the parts bin and said “yeah this four speed will work on the modern sports car” 😂
Umm this isn't a performance sports car. .. it's sporty.
I used to work at the Dodge-Chrysler production plant here in Brampton, Ontario. Got fired the second day because of speeding in a stick SRT lol

Remember that this is an old 2009 and there's the new Pentastar Challenger
Did it run good
Bought one used 2 years ago. love it!
Got one last week
The Pentastar 3.6 with the 8-speed automatic will be on another level altogether.
What do you think about it today?
you guys have to remember back in the 70s, the challengers smaller v8 put out around 250 hp. but also the car was much lighter back then.
Despite the body being all metal
The NAG1 5 speed automatic makes a huge difference to the 3.5 v6. This is known from owning a 3.5 v6 magnum with NAG1.
One wonders how the 3.5 would have reacted to the torqueflite 8-speed or even a 6-speed auto.
He is talking about the SE but that car he is standing next to is the R/T??
Cuz.. its about selling units buddy.. affordability is one of the main things that keep the muscle cars alive.
The 3.5 might be adequate in an Avenger but it seems very taxed in a 3800lb Challenger. How could they not make a 5 speed an option on the v6? WTF...

Wow thats pretty weak fuel economy for what you get. 25 Hwy and 17 City? The Mustang GT 05-10 gets that and 300hp. Hell even the 300hp V6 Camaro does better.
I think its time to put Chrysler down. Unimaginative, heavy, and dated technology just wrapped in a new package. As beautiful as the body is, this overweight car really suffers because of this.
Just seems like cars just stopped innovating absolutely ridiculous
Dont get me wrong,250hp is ALOT for 3.5 liters,but fuck chrylser put the challenger on a diet,you got looks down pat,but in handling,fuel economy and performace you fall short,imagine how quick the SRT would be with 3500lbs or so.I mean fuck,my cavalier is quicker than this challenger se.And 25 mpg just isnt worth a 16 sec 1/4 mile.
When was 250hp good for a 3.5 Litre V6? 1950?
You want them to produce an engine that hasn't been made in years and that plain sucked just so soccer moms can get to 60 a little faster?
5 speed automatic
42RLE was used in this car, a gearbox that dated back to 1993
16 second quarter mile? I'm sorry, but that is horrible. =(
North America needs better auto shows/presenters. I keep expecting him to say "And now on the price is right!"
jealousy....... Go pay your litre tax on your engine. LOl
SE. Stupid Edition.!
very well a piece of shit and for openers the engine thats in that car is under powered the car is to heavy for this engine and one more thing its not american it fiat built so there you have it
Slow af
