My friends dad has a 6 cylinder Challenger and it's a pretty amazing car! You're right too, they are huge. It's got 305 horsepower which isn't bad for a V6
Kyle, I just wanted to let you know that I have been watching your videos for over 2 years now. You have inspired me to get my own Job at a Car Dealership as a Lot attendant/Detailer. I may only be 16...but im doing what I love and your videos helped me do what I love. Thank you!
The Challenger is literally the only muscle car I want. It just looks so powerful! I mean, I'm only 17 now, but look at this beast! One day I'm going to have one haha! well I hope.
I just dont understand how with a 6,3L v8 under the hood they didnt make that exhaust louder... I mean its not like they are trying to sell this car to someone who is wanting an elegant car like a rolls royce... let those horses roar!
You can thank the idiots who put on resonators for that bs. But, anyways, just a customization on the muffler and a delete on those resonators should take care of that.
I completely agree with you however if you take the resonators or muffler off of the car you run a risk of setting all kinds of issues off with engine lights and voiding the warranty on one of these cars (if its still under warranty)
i just wanna compliment that u make one of the best reviews, saw urs on the 2011 charger and I'm buying that RT MAX, shame that its on a waiting of 3 months in Dubai .. ... Once again thank you for putting in all the efforts and saving us the hassle of going to a showroom and still we can't do all the stuff u get to do and show us !! Cheeeers and GOD BLESS AMERICAL AND DODGE AND RALPH .. With love n respect from DUBAI !
A very good review! I do not like the wheels, but plain works best on this car. Now if the front seats are very comfortable, and the shifting is smooth, that is all I need. A lot of sporting moms and dads will choose this car over the Mustang and Camero because the kids can get in the back and ride more comfortably. I still prefer the Mustang, my friend prefers this car. Yes, I know...these are late comments on what is now a used car, but it is an impressive vehicle well shown by the narrator.
This car is Every thing I want in a car. Great looks, sound, stereo, touch screen navigation and all the other stuff that cones with that, comfortable and stylish interior, great trunk size and who could forget a six speed 392 Hemi. If I had all the money in to world or just won 50k I would buy this car in an instant. (and then a Viper)
Does anyone agree that this guy has one of the best jobs in the world?! I mean, compare this to any other career/profession and this is so chill, exciting, rewarding and of course awesome...
The minor exterior changes and new interior make this the best Challenger to date in my opinion. The new 6.4 Hemi makes it that much better, great exhaust note. Kyle, you must do a 2012 Grand Cherokee SRT8 when they come out in the summer. They had one at the NY Auto Show this year and it was amazing. The design is so mean and the interior is awesome (even had paddle shifters!!)
I'm not sure how many people have seen these cars up close, but they're massive. I saw the yellow jacket one at the Toronto Auto Show, and just sitting in the passenger seat was awesome ;D
@lemons27772 you engage it with your foot but to release it you pull the lever above it with the parking brake symbol on it. So you can most likely still do hill starts.
I really like our Challenger. It's not as fast as the Mustang, but this gets a lot of looks and has a true american muscle look. Gas milage is about 22-23 on the highway using unleaded 89 (E-10) in case anyone is wondering
@StevesMusicChannel That's true for the automatic equipped vehicles and it obviously only applies when it's in park. Since this Challenger has the manual, no rev limiter here!! You can rev that beast up as high as you want in neutral.
I'd rather spend 20 mins watching your video about one car instead of spending those 20 being bombarded with information about 4 different cars. Your videos add a personal touch to the video, they are made in a way someone would go through a car themselves.
It’s cool to see the incremental changes they made to these over the years. I feel manufacturer’s need to do this to make better cars, keep their lineup`s longer so the quality gets better instead of switching it all up every 4/5/6 years.
i got to go to the unveil of the challenger 392. it was unveiled at the wellborn muscle car museum in alex city alabama. it was sweet. i talked with chrysler reps forever. they also unveiled the new charger at that time.
The reason that the GT500 and the ZL1 "beat" this car in the 1/4 mile is because they're already supercharged, but if this car is supercharged, it crushes them.
HEMI's may not be the loudest when they start up but when they get high in RPMs they are one of the best sounding out there. I love hearing a HEMI scream.
what I love about USA is that you guys make high performace cars ( perfectly engineered and stylishly designed ) with low price tags i mean with half a price or even one third the price of a lambo or a ferrari you can get a car with equale performance and speed ! god bless GM...oh yea and i like hotdogs and cold bear too :D
First Off You Are The Man Bro Secondly Do You Know When The Automatic Version Of The Challenger SRT 8 Is Coming ?? Also When Is The SRT 8 Charger Coming??? I Cant Wait For The Videos !!!
really nice car. Kyle I just wanted to ask you something. When you go to these car dealers, does the owner ever hesitate when you ask to start up the car.? Im probably not wording that properly but Im going to head down to my local Volkswagen dealer and ask if I can do a start up and was wondering does the owner let you do it no problem or does he say no because he might be afraid you would maybe steal the car.?
Love my 2012 R/T. It's the best purchase I've ever made! Recommend challengers to anyone looking for a very fast muscle car. Also. Go for the 6 speeds!
normally chrysler/ dodge interiors suck but this has some good premium materials like leather door arm rests, suede on the doors, and the seats are really nice... while hyundai interiors have a bold design, most of the materials are hard plastic, not as sure about kia interiors
I am a MOPAR fan and I love the look of the Challenger...however the quality of the 2011 Mustang 5.0 is by far the best of all the modern muscle cars and is my favorite among the Challenger and Camaro.
can you please check out the new 2012 Honda Civic Si when it comes out! Your reviews are the most comprehensive I have consistently seen on youtube and I would love to hear from you before checking out the car myself to buy!
It's a fine review about a beautifully designed reincarnation of a famous American muscle car, from a time when a gallon of gas was 29ø, combined with full employment in North America. So it's understandable, that there's strong, yearning nostalgia for it, even among the young, who only heard about it. Yet, we can't live in denial. Time has changed for most Americans and the products needs to serve these new realities much more sensibly than this Challanger.
Even stranger, when the first Challengers came out in 2008, ONLY the 6.1L SRT-8 model was available (they didn't release the "regular" 5.7L RT version until next model year), and they were ONLY available in Automatic.
I loved the Camaro and Ford Mustang until I drove both of them. They may be faster, but the Challenger felt so much more comfortable. It fits a big guy like a glove. If Dodge would had given me a good interest rate I would have bought one.
@spencermel was in refrence to my first road legal motorcycle. a 97 gs500e, with a yami headlight, kawi wheels, and honda signal lights. looked good. imho of course. had a decal made using hte name. but sold bike before application. so next frankenbike i build will have it on there

Bastard! I am going to do whatever I can to get one here within the next year maybe.
Mine too
+Grant Houchens did u get it lol
I hope they refresh this thing soon. I would love to see them bring up the interior quality, and incorporate some led lights out back.
Hahaha dam this an old comment Lol
@@yungpepereacts2300 we still out here
Lol I love that that comment was released before Dodge put in DRLs in the headlights and put a supercharger in lol
They are electric now
I just love the entire exterior design, looks amazing
That exhaust note is to die for!
one more video then 1,111! congratulation kyle! youve been going at it for a long time which inspired me. thank you!
Who needs Mustangs and Camaros when we have Challengers.
People who actually go to a race track.

If you're going to a race track you take a Vette or a Viper.

Do you have one now?
I'm like, In love with your car videos. Please, never stop making these for as long as you can. I will watch these until the world ends :)
I have watched MANY of your reviews and you do an excellent job!! Keep them coming!!
I just dont understand how with a 6,3L v8 under the hood they didnt make that exhaust louder... I mean its not like they are trying to sell this car to someone who is wanting an elegant car like a rolls royce... let those horses roar!

CamaroMatt Florida You can't set a CEL by removing the muffler or resonator, only the cat.
desertfox2020 ya I think I ment to say if you take a CAT off aka catalytic converter lol I was a little tired on that first comment
Sweet! What a beautiful Challenger! Great vid as always Kyle!
this is the only new car on the market today i would want. absolutly amazing job done on this car

As,e here, I like shelbys better, but the charger hellcat with its space and lower price pulled me in.

Kyle I am glad you made this! There really aren't good videos of this car out there
Does anyone agree that this guy has one of the best jobs in the world?!
I mean, compare this to any other career/profession and this is so chill, exciting, rewarding and of course awesome...
Gotta love the styling of these new muscle cars.
I already ordered a 5.0 Mustang and do no regretted it one bit, but this car is badass sounds and looks great..
I think it's pretty awesome that lately you've reviewed the mustang, camaro, and challenger!

All I can say is, that for us the old timer this car is a dream come true.I always wanted one but something always got in the way of me getting one.
I really like our Challenger. It's not as fast as the Mustang, but this gets a lot of looks and has a true american muscle look. Gas milage is about 22-23 on the highway using unleaded 89 (E-10) in case anyone is wondering

My 392 is getting 21 mpg flogged.. it screams fun, and I just love it. Great track car for me, and I've driven many vehicles on the race track.
the best part about the car is the shear size, my buddy has one, I'm 6'5" and fit just fine in driver and passenger seat with room to spare.
he makes even bad cars sound like awesome cars keep em' coming Kyle!
i got to go to the unveil of the challenger 392. it was unveiled at the wellborn muscle car museum in alex city alabama. it was sweet. i talked with chrysler reps forever. they also unveiled the new charger at that time.
you caught me off guard with the "Hey Everyone, whats going on?" lol
who the hell would dislike this video!?!??! GREAT VID KYLE!! :D
I’m sorry for being hella late but
The mustang fanboys disliked it 😂
Hey kyle, id just like to say thank you for all these great videos that you put up. Im glad i subscribed.
i always wonder about those windows that lower down when you open door. if battery fails, i.e. no power at all, can you get into car?
@braydenmartindale The Genesis is automatic, no?
If you possibly could in future do a review on the challenger hellcat once they are available
Love this car...kinda weird to see a rubber band on the e brake @3:48 tho lol
this is the only "new generation" muscle car i really like. the old ones i think are the essence of what a muscle car is.
That is a sick Challenger. Great vid as usual
The reason that the GT500 and the ZL1 "beat" this car in the 1/4 mile is because they're already supercharged, but if this car is supercharged, it crushes them.
Te Hace Falta Ver Mas Bax sorta how the hellcat takes everything down
Felipe Garvia the 2014 gt500 is faster than a hellcat. Stock for stock.
Felipe Garvia no it doesnt
@2011ChargerRT I believe it.
Sometimes I would go to the dealership nearby and take a look at them really good for a few minutes
HEMI's may not be the loudest when they start up but when they get high in RPMs they are one of the best sounding out there. I love hearing a HEMI scream.
I live in Switzerland (West-Europe) and I see them like every day. There is a 2012 392 just around the corner.
Sorry Kyle didn't realize you already have this vehicle... great video!
what I love about USA is that you guys make high performace cars ( perfectly engineered and stylishly designed ) with low price tags i mean with half a price or even one third the price of a lambo or a ferrari you can get a car with equale performance and speed ! god bless GM...oh yea and i like hotdogs and cold bear too :D
First Off You Are The Man Bro Secondly Do You Know When The Automatic Version Of The Challenger SRT 8 Is Coming ?? Also When Is The SRT 8 Charger Coming??? I Cant Wait For The Videos !!!
That has got to be the coolest shift knob in any car on the road.
Rather have an SRT8 over a GT500 or ZL1
lol
Me too.
really nice car. Kyle I just wanted to ask you something. When you go to these car dealers, does the owner ever hesitate when you ask to start up the car.?

@azcade101 it doesnt cuz u need to press the clutch to start it up...only the automatic comes with remote start up
@braydenmartindale Watch his Genesis's full tour video. It has a ZF 6-Spd auto.
Love my 2012 R/T. It's the best purchase I've ever made! Recommend challengers to anyone looking for a very fast muscle car. Also. Go for the 6 speeds!
If I ever have the chance to buy one of these, I will, hell I'll even settle for a used r/t, the challenger is my dream car.
i took my best friend to elementary school in mine and got so many looks definantly gets attention
What camera did you happen to use? Great work on all the cars you've done by the way.
I love the car obviously, however one thing I would change is the gearshift. Look better with ball head shifter.
normally chrysler/ dodge interiors suck but this has some good premium materials like leather door arm rests, suede on the doors, and the seats are really nice... while hyundai interiors have a bold design, most of the materials are hard plastic, not as sure about kia interiors
i love this car because its the only car u can actually see over the dash board and im 6'0 ft

You don't realize how big this car is until you actually stand right next to it and take a good look. It is a monster!
that timer a g-force meter are pretty cool
@DJay601 Sweet! How is it? Did you compare it to the Mustang and Camaro? It looks and sounds awesome!!
thank you for the tutorial...this is truly an amazing car.
can you please check out the new 2012 Honda Civic Si when it comes out!
Your reviews are the most comprehensive I have consistently seen on youtube and I would love to hear from you before checking out the car myself to buy!
This kid has a great job. He has videos of Mustangs, Camaros, Chargers, Challengers etc. etc. etc. Must be nice lol.
I want one of these cars, I'd almost rather the 5.7 litre R/T, theyre all awesome though. Thanks for the upload!

very nice car.... thanks for thorough review.. keep it up.
To anyone looking to get one, think twice about getting the SRT. I've found much joy in the R/T.
Man This thing is gorgeous.
I've been to Stateline CDJ before. They had a 392 Challenger in their showroom just like the one featured here except it was an automatic.
Thank you very much for the video :-) I have the 2008 model, and I love the car :-)
My uncle has the same car but with the SRT8 wheels! Its awesome!
Getting this for the summer!! Trading in my 2010 charger
Great video! Makes up my mind to buy this car!
hey kyle what camera do you use? really awesome quality
@themrmacrulz No, he goes to dealerships and tours the cars.
very good video!
shows completely the car!
Do you think you could maybe do a 2014 challenger rt video?
the transmission on the 2008-present Dodge Challenger
Transmission
4-speed automatic 42RLE (2009)
5-speed automatic W5A580 (2008-present)
6-speed manual Tremec TR6060 (2009-present)
I loved the Camaro and Ford Mustang until I drove both of them. They may be faster, but the Challenger felt so much more comfortable. It fits a big guy like a glove. If Dodge would had given me a good interest rate I would have bought one.
Average MPG 5.1, Loved that.
Got to love the "not avalible" rear leg room. IDK why, but it just seems amusing to me. It's like "why bother"?
my dream car .. BIG respect .
@416Gamer
This amazing car its for collectors, for fun time, no for gas save.
hey, just want to know what camera you are using. I saw the reflection and I think it's very compact. :)
1:32 sounds amazing
Exactly my brother! Our Cars have Soul! American V8's For EVER!!!
Hi i really like your videos and id really apreciate it if you do a review of the 2011 dodge Chllenger R/T manual transmition
