    The Harmon Kardon in the challenger is one of the best sound systems I’ve ever heard. Definitely not a disappointment!

      @jlolment 5 років тому +4

      Harmon Kardon is "badge engineering." They'll provide some tuning for a specific vehicle, but phase, impulse, and transience are always disappointing. Maybe most telling is what the speakers are made of - paper, just like the entry level speakers.
      If you want great sound, get the standard system, stuff some dynamat (or equivalent) behind the interior panels, and swap out the speakers with something other than vibration-prone paper. The ideal speaker is a thin, lightweight, compressible, and very stable plane. You already make sacrifices by using conical speakers, don't skimp on their materials.

      Both are amazing cars but you have a 3rd generation Mustang along with Camaro and Corvette while Challenger and Charger have been in the same generation for over a decade . I know Dodge has a big surprise in the next few years. Mercedes platform and chassis is definitely being replaced. Anyway the Redeye is just a small taste of whats yet to come. A rumored Widebody Charger Angel with a new platform and suspension and a 1000 HP 426 Hemi Motor would make me leave skid marks to the nearest Dodge dealer !!! Lol I'm born Dodge but i wouldn't buy right now. Def would wait to see what happens in the next few years.My brother just got a Redeye and i begged him to wait another year or two but he couldn't wait and spent the 90 grand lol

    The cabin hasnt changed because the car will loose the retro nostalgia if they get too radical... Look in a 69 or 70 model & you can still feel the heritage transfer... BUT... They could upgrade the interior materials and visual technology... The interior of a Red Eye Should glow Red like your in the "Hot Place" & the Eye should blink with red Led's like you say... They could get some drama on for near 100k...

I had the 2008 Challenger SRT8 in black . I purchased it from a dodge dealer owner who put 1900 miles on it in six yesrs . Completely loaded and black . I sold it and regretted it. Next year I will get the Scatpack widebody in pearl black. Hell you only live once ! Right ?

      SRT BOSS RIchard Kunnis stated that is just the begining phase. New platform and chassis coming and should knock off over 400 lbs off the car weight. New suspension we already know about. The big mystery is what Monster Hemi motor will they be putting to this animal ! Lol rumored 426 Hemi with estimated 900 to 1000 hp would be the icing on the cake lol Dodge def going to exceed the 800 hp Redeye motor we have now in the next few years. Challenger will probably go into a new generation also.

I also have the Harman in mine and don't understand why the reviewer was disappointed, because he didn't qualify his statement. The system is crystal clear, pounds if you want it to. The only comment I would make is that I would have liked to have more volume, but not at the expense of the clarity.

    He made a critial mistake bashing the cars interior and that it hasn't changed in the last decade. First they refreshed it for 2015. The interior is better than the Camaro and MUCH better than the current Mustang. It's big, comfortable, great beefy steering wheel. Visually pleasing gauges, big comfortable wide seats. Great shifter and a class leading touch screen.

      ZL1 1LE is a track car, to buy one with no intentions of ever road racing it would be a huge waste. The hellcats are cruisers that can run 10's at the drag strip, then drive home in comfort which is what most people are going to do with these types of cars.

      Sound is thin and the 2 subwoofers in the trunk produce inconsistent bass levels. I actually think something may have been wrong with the wiring.

      I’m going to have to disagree with you about the stereo, it goes loud as F... , and sounds perfect even when cranked. But the real thing is , once you start driving everyone turns the radio off just to listen to the blower wine and exhaust noise. That’s real music 🎶

      Demon has different (drag racing suspension), smaller brakes to fit in the smaller drag radials. Also the trans-brake, different camshafts, hood, etc. Not to mention the drag radials are limited to 168mph, like the Demon.

    I've been obsessing over Challengers since their return in '08. I finally pulled the trigger and ordered up a Redeye like the one reviewed here,. Indigo Blue with the Red leather, all options minus stripes or a sunroof. Is not my first fun car, I'm 54, I compare my Redeye to big liter sport bikes for people, the acceleration is stupid fast. The car cannot be driven in anger, it is a constant drive with a smile, between exhaust and whine, and a quick heavy right foot, you are triple digits in speed and heart rate in mere seconds.. Never a dull moment. I don't compare it to other cars, because it's in a whole different class. My '05 STI would destroy it on a twisty road, which is a different kind of fun, but when I start runway racing, it will be the Redeye that gets me in the 200 club. Only a small handful of cars will break into the 200 mph club, and even
    less US made cars.
