    you are EXTREMELY lucky for finding that one as clean as it is for only 4.5k. that price is insanely low. all i see are shitty ones that either have a horrible condition body, problems, a super worn out interior, rebuilt title, etc. i can only find like 2 or 3 that are in good condition for 9k-10k for an RT. people just do not take care of these cars lol. i have a 2008 charger V6 as of now and i’m 17 years old. just got it as my first car a day before my birthday. paid 4k for it. absolutely no rust and no body or interior issues except for the paint fading on the left side of the car. i want to sell it next year and save up enough money for a v8 but i don’t really want to get a job just yet because i’m focusing hard on school. anyway my point is, is that it’s crazy you found one for that cheap. you’re insanely lucky my guy. i saw an almost perfect looking 2007 daytona charger for $6500 a few months ago and it sold in about 4 hours lol. the 2006-2010 chargers in good condition are hard as hell to find and if you do find them they’re sold in just a few hours or so

      Don't sleep on the Police Pursuit Chargers----you can find them at auction from police departments or used on lots and from private sellers. The V8 version is basically R/T mechanicals----with beefed up alternator, oil cooler, suspension----maybe even more side impact protection from what I have heard. They are sort of plain Jane, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing----it's a canvas for customization and underneath, it's R/T performance with law enforcement enhancements. Since a lot of people don't want a former police cruiser, I believe they often sell for less than the Civilian Chargers.
