Killing me with that little hand 😂
Funny people say it's not the V8 and it has to be blah blah. You're still faster than 75% of the other vehicles out there. Remember most are Rav 4s, CRVs, Santa Fe's..lol It's not a dragster that you're buying it for. The daily driver with the great looks and some fun.
DriveCFL I wholeheartedly agree. I really loved my 2013 SXT, my very first Challenger.
And great MPG and low pay insurance
Found a 2018 sxt for only 15. Getting it this week before someone else does.
@@joeysk81 let's see it.
@@VintageCars999 let's see it.
90% comment of the yellow tiny hand
I don’t know which I like more... the challenger or that hand😂
That tiny hand tho xD
that tiny hand was one of the coolest thing on this video haha
😂😂😂
Ha!!!! Lol
Ecks Dee
I couldn't stop laughing after that pointer finger came out
The pointer finger had me laughing also great video of challenger !I have one also a a 2014 in graghite !
Go-Go Gadget hand job pointer 😂😂😂
Lol that was hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
Same LOL
Same. That little hand is cracking me up.
Perhaps the most comprehensive car review I've ever seen. Great job!
I feel obligated to buy one of those hands now
They’re amazing bro I just got one a month ago
"Come child, take my strong hand.."
Brilliant review, though. Subbed.
i fucking died when he pulled that hand out. love the review.
Finally a Dodge Challenger SXT
Is the hand included with the challenger it would be useful to use while showing off my fantastic ride
Do you use that little hand in all your videos?
That little hand sold me, Im subscribing lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 isn't it adorable?!
I’ve had my white challenger since august last year and I’ve got nothing but great compliments on it. It’s not the top of the line challenger but it’s fast enough for me and less maintenance.
Got one of these a week ago and fits pretty damn well. I’m 6’4” and 330lbs and fit no problem. Also has plenty of get up and go for me. Wonderful car
Arntor 1184 have you tried to get in the back?
You still like it in 2022?
Omgsh finest car I’ve ever seen😍😍
Savannah Austin I have one u wanna vannah? Lol u so cute
Dabul Lil thxx🥀
Excellent review Mike. For me the good news is my 2016 SXT BT STP is virtually identical. For everyone else, it was already perfect. The car is awesome.. The reaction of people to it is AMAZING. Driving it is pure heaven city or rural . 320 HP is more than most original 1970 V8 muscle cars had. With advances in suspension, braking, trans there is honestly no need for the V8 except for engine sound. 95% of people cant tell the difference and frankly the SXT does not tip off cops to speed and you can hear your tunes at 90-100 MPH... enjoy !
Exactly!!!
@@chiefredbear8979 Oh, there is MUCH more excitement to be had with the V8. Go test drive a 392 with a manual, then get back in your 3.6 and let me know what you honestly think.
@@jimimack7298 I did that and the 392 had to put gas already and insurance, payments, maintenance where high vs the V6. The V6 has the same looks inside and outside enough power for me also has way more options than bone stock 392. It was a no brainer which route I chose. Also if I ever upgrade down the road I’ll skip the RT, Scatpack and just get a Hellcat.
@ Marty Victor Question how did you got 320HP on your Challenger if it comes factory stock 305HP?
True, ppl will like the car regardless, me personally I was getting tired of getting gapped in my old v6… i own a scatpack now so it rarely happens now lol
Awesome review ! Just bought one a month ago, 2018 SXT, I was skeptical about getting a V6 But omg I absolutely LOVE it. Car is still a beast, super fast. Sports mode is dope, Alpine speakers are louddd. The Blind spot is terrible but otherwise iM absolutely in LOVE.
P.s edited 2 years later :
I totaled the car and ended up getting the 2019 SXT same color Destroyer Gray. I was so upset. The freeway was flooded and my car got hydro locked...I cried a lot. that was my baby.... still love my car but want a bmw gran coupe 4 series now
fijiand0ll91 get you some blind spot mirrors. $3
Sports mode only comes in a sxt plus ??
Alpha Fitness no it doesnt. It comes in the sxt as well. Ive got an 18 and its got sport too.
I'm get sxt plus which I'll have the convenience package with remote start as an option too glad to hear the apline speakers r good I mite invested in that
Just bough a 2018 Challenger sxt plus w/blacktop package this vehicle is absolutely sick I'm in love
2016 sales numbers for the Dodge Challenger ( They sell a lot of SXT's, folks...lol)
Total units sold--
Hellcat........................4,025
SRT 392......................2,196
R/T Scat Pack............4,934
Don't know about just the R/T model, but I'm guessing similar numbers....so that's about 45-48,000 V6's......somebody likes 'em, that's for sure.
Got both the SRT and the SXT. SXTs V6 are perfect for daily driving, they still have enough power and has pretty good fuel economy on the highway. The V8 Hemis are best for leisure/fun weekend vehicles.
I love challengers man. Such a beautiful car.
Wow since the 2010 challenger theres been no body changes . Only tail/head lights .
No body changes since 2008.. Fascia and tail TWEAKS , That why the car holds value so well.
The car had a major interior overhaul in 2015
2015 and up changed the lights and interior.
You don't want to mess with classic 70's muscle car design !
Because it’s a retro car design copying the 1970s
Do you want them to update it so it looks like an 84 charger??
The yellow hand steals the show. 😆
We all know that Buying These Cars is a WASTE of $$$$ but... Damn... Is the Challenger SWEET... ;) I Stumbled upon one at a dealership near me with an MSRP of $31,000... It's a 2018, it's last years Model.. It's BRAND NEW with ZERO MILES.. The Dealership is offering it online at $23,0000... DAMN... It's got the Blacktop Package and it's Light Blue... It's 100% What I have DREAMED OF OWNING for the past few years... DAMN I want this Car so Bad.. ;) Life is Short.. Why Not Enjoy it... Doing Burnouts... ;) If I go to my grave.. I would NOT REGRET Buying it.. Fuck it... If I was on My Death Bed I would NOT REGRET Buying it... Yea It's Stupid and I have a Car Payment but Life is Short so Fuck It.. ;) I'm Buying it!!
I love my 2016 SXT :)
Go for it man . Just took delivery of my 2019 RT/ Hemi/ Auto today 1-2019. LOVE THIS CAR !
Jeep Rubicon I’m feeling like a real traitor right now but my Wrangler with 6 inch lift on 35s is rough. Plus the payment would be cut in half. BUT I have a 9 & 5 year old.... will they fit for at least 2 years? That is the question!!!!
And then my Jeep senses kick in and say WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!!??? But that payment tho 🤔🤔🤔😭😭😭😭
@@TxMom13 I've seen very tall people fit in the back 6'4+. I dont see why your children wouldnt fit. But of course go look at one at a dealer and see what your children say.
Nicholas Q. Thanks! And you’re right cause if the kids aren’t happy, chances are Momma won’t be able to be either! 😂 gotta love em!!
This is quite the car, here I expected it to be plain and simple but you've shown me quite a bit more than many youtubers would show, of course only problem I would have is of course the blind spots but other than that I think I've found my first vehicle
People who leave good reviews like these leading to car purchases should get commission somehow from dealerships
The plastic ✋ is brilliant. I'm sure I'm not the only person who hates it when they use their real hand to point crap out. To me it's like fingernails on a black board.
Beautiful car but you might as well just get the 2015 model and save yourself alot of money, the differences look minimal tbh.
can we take a minute to appreciate the level of skill that it takes to use those pointer fingers on camera like that
Great review! I have a 2017 SXT Plus and absolutely love it.
Tom's Test Kitchen any problem so far I'm thinking of getting one
@@ere5763 me too i never wanted anything so bad before
Finally a review on a civilian 2018 dodge muscle car
KayleUknow yeah. I tend to classify the sxt to rt shaker models as civilian. When you get to srt powered territory, then ur special and extra flavor is added
kcotte59 Why Not? It is the closest in style of the old muscle cars with more power and speed than most of the old muscle cars back in the day.
kcotte59 I guess it depends on your personal definition of muscle car. To me it is more of the style of the cars from the 1960's and 1970's and the Challenger is the closest to that style imo. Of course the rumble of a 6.4l v8 completes that style much better than a v6.
MikesCarInfo agreed☝
kcotte59 i feel that about 300 hp is needed to get the car movin because of the extra weight and 100-220 more hp is needed just to make the chargers and challengers move like a light car. Thats why dodge chargers and challengers generally have more hp than the mustangs and cameros because of the extra weight. Yes the engines are huge and have more power than the latters, but that extra power is needed to get the car movin and thats exactly why i like the chargers and challengers
Okay class what have we learned today?
a. That this is a nice car
b. That our lives have been meaningless without a plastic hand to use for various explanations and or to make you feel special..
AGAIN awesome review ..I felt like am watching TV show. Keep it up Mike!
Goodbye.
Ismail alreesi especially in 1440p (4k) 😄
I like the 8.4 screen better in my 2016 sxt and there is the roadsign assist and 911 features that are missing in the rearview mirror
8.4 was and still is an add-on option. Standard screen in 2016 was the much smaller and low resolution Uconnect 5.0
Been waiting for a long time
Mikes reviews are phenomenal
Nice car! I like it! I would buy it...it's within my current budget. It looks good! May not be an RT,Scat pack,Hellcat,or Demon,but if I had 60-80 grand to play with...oh,well
Just got the 2018 today😊
ninajmisfit13 how do you like it I'm watching this video because I'm seriously thinking about getting a 2018 this fall.
Just got me a 2019 blacktop. Dope car. Bit still getting that v8 next
The door and panel alignment on that car is terrible.
I noticed that on the passenger door when he was demonstrating the unlock feature.
They gotta get those back seat cup holders gone already those look so cheap and ugly looking like early 2000s .And same for those front and back seats gotta go they look cheap and well and been there since 2010 it’s 2018 they need to upgrade them already
I have this same car, with moonroof. I love it. Getting 25mpg.
You still happy with it? I'm looking at getting one myself.
25mpg? Really?
I cant wait to get an RT next year.
25mpg really?!
Just got mine for 2019. About to get it wrapped
Spectacular car even in its base model. I wouldn't mind the sports added to it.
After year ago I looked to your video and trust me you did a great review of this car. I must say one the best for those who wants to know this car. I finally have one now n living it.
I am soooo in love with this car, and watching this review just made me feel 1000000000 times better!😌
I assume you bought one? I'm thinking about getting one do you enjoy it?
RabidNemo yes.... it’s a really good car
@@ceneciabien-aime1843 any pros and cons? I mainly just making sure I don't rush into something you know? I definitely want this car though
RabidNemo Same, even though I’m 15 years old right now (soon turning 16) I honestly think it’s worth it for me to work really hard to afford this beautiful car someday. It’s also one of my dream cars.
Can’t wait to own one
Did you get it? I'm getting ready to get one and trying to get feedback
I'm seriously considering a SXT plus model. Its possible to load a SXT with options and still pay far less than you would for a V8 with those same options or even fewer. I never thought I would think twice about a V6 challenger but dodge sells more V6s then V8s. Thats why there isn't a V8 AWD and who honestly needs a V8? The SXT gives plenty of power to get around town and thats what most buyers will do with it. Challengers have a kick ass and take name appearance that no other car has. The menacing road presence is polarizing. I love it. Oh the uconnect system is fantastic.
"2017 dodge challenger gt awd vs ford mustang and camaro mash up". Search for that on youtube or copy paste. Skip to 3:30. The brand manager for Dodge says they sell more V6 challengers and chargers than V8s.
4WD has drives to the front, a V8 may not fit the parts. The 4WD already rides higher then 2WD SXT Ive owned the HEMI and the V6. A V6 Pentastar with the 8 spd trns matches all Euros (Jag, BMW, Audi few people know the Challenger sits on a Mercedes SEL 500 Chassis) Back to the 4WD.. Its not sold as a high-performance car. Its a nice looking JEEP for people who live in the snow belt and dont want a truck.
Tiny hand 🤚🏻 I couldn't stop laugh 😂
You managed to create a very thorough and comprehensive review. Some might think it is overboard but for me it was just right as I grapple with the nuances of the V6 offerings. Thank you!
I’m loving the little hand😂
Sxt is nice but it's power is just too dull for me. I tried an r/t and the power was great and it didn't feel scary fast it felt fun cool showoff fast
I'm Italian and for me 305 hp are fine. in Italy if you exceed 250 hp (185kw) you have to pay € 20 for every kw over 185. This shit is called "superbollo" and if I have to take this car I should spend about € 1100 a year when you normally pay 200-300 (kw x 2 €). This is Italy
Pretty ironic for a country where two of the most well known performance car companies were founded.
I loved that tiny yellow hand, subscribed already LOLOLOL!
V 6 or whatever but that white with black out looks bad ass.
I have a 2016 SXT PLUS never have a problem with it. Only thing it is missing is a CD player. Thats strange..
Nice review, have a 2016 dodge charger sxt rwd myself absolutely love it, strange how the challenger doesn't have the capless gas tank like the charger does
I subscribed to see more of the hand 😂
I swore I didn’t know the good scoops were functional
What's that?
That was one of the best videos I have ever seen. Thank you😊
Sxt plus has a bit more features alot better 😊
Love the yellow pointer hand! And I love my 2018 SXT plus!
The hand lmao!!
اللهم أرزقنا بمثلها واحسن وقنا شر كل شيئ اللهم أمين
I watch your videos all the time. Especially the Challenger videos. Keep it up!
Aaaaaaa the SXT a Challenger for people that can't handle an R/T
I have a 2016 SXT and it is a great car. 305hp plenty of power! great gas mileage 27-28mpg average and solid reliability (100k miles so far).
The R/T isn't much stronger than the SXT in daily driving.
If I wanted more hp I would skip the R/T and get at least the Scat Pack but it would be mostly for the sound.
A dealership close to me is selling 2018 challenger with 44k miles for 22k is it worth it? It does say on the car fax that it’s was damaged a few times but it got rebuilt
You get a v6 they say you should’ve waited and saved up for the v8. You grab an R/T now it’s “not even a scatpack”. Lmao you grab a 392 now you wasted money and should’ve saved more to purchase a Hell cat smh 🤦🏽♂️
Buy a Hellcat and they say "shoulda' got the Demon!" :)
Faxxxx 🤦🏽♂️
That thing looks mean with that package! I love it!!
I own a 2019 challengee sxt plus,, just love it... nice review
My dream car
Mannnnnnnnn I was leaning more towards the octane red (blacktop package) but now I'm sort of leaning towards the white knuckle (blacktop package) - I think it looks really good without the racing stripes.. however I've noticed that the blacktop package comes with racing stripes. So I'm guessing there is a option to not include the racing stripes??
Please, where can I buy the tiny hand pointer? I must have it!
PROS from and Owner :
Fun car looks gorgeous, pretty damn fast, 0-60 in 5.9 seconds (personal best could prob do 5 flat in right circumstances) lots of space, pretty cheap price tag for what you get, averaging 25 MPG in one hour work commute (30 miles one way)
CONS:
I dont like the interface (thats personal preference but there isnt a lot of options on the screen), youll want a faster car after driving this, youll want to jump up to a hellcat. Not to great in the snow.
Thats really it for the CONS, not to many and a lot of them were personal preference.
Is this a good first car ?
Amazing car. Too bad if I get one and something breaks there is no certified dealer to fix it in my country. :'(
Duke
Move to Canada 🇨🇦
What height do you have to be so the steering wheel won’t block the way
I don't know but I do know some really short people that drive a Challenger daily. In addition to moving forward the seat can raise up quite a bit.
I love my 2018 CHALLENGER I'm murdered out in mine .😎
Best review I've seen! So much info! Thanks!
just so you know I just pissed my pants when pointy came out! haha. Great video. Thank you.
That little yellow hand is funny as hell 😂
Great car, but those seats/cloth look hideous! The yellow hand is all class-love it!
Planning to buy one next year
I casually watched this video not knowing my home town was where it was filmed shout out Whiteville Nc lol
I literally just got the same car, and I'm so in love. Thank you so much for the in-depth review!!
Can someone tell me the difference between the sxt and the gt? Which one should I get
Fantastic review, very thorough and informative. Love that little hand pointer😄
That tiny hand made the video, oh and the car was nice too, lol!!! Great video.
Boy the pipe bending tools sure got a workout on that exhaust in the intro!
I have to ask. As long as you can unlock the door by just having the key nearby. Can anyone unlock the door the same way? Meaning if you're stopped at a light and someone comes to the door. Could they unlock and open the door while you are sitting in the car?
No. the car can sense when the key is inside or outside the vehicle.
I will be renting a SXT on vacation next month. I would never have found all these features without your video. I have watched others, and none as useful. Thanks.
Thank you... Please share if you can :)
Damn good video I needed to see this great learning experience
Yesterday I took possession of a 2018 Sxt Challenger. You actually showed me the light switch I couldn't find lol. Im in bliss with my choice
That’s awesome Sharlene.
I’m a potential buyer of one of these.
I’m really interested in the reliability of the pentastar 3.6 engine. My wife has a 2017 grand caravan gt with the same engine and we haven’t had any issues yet @ 39000 miles.
But I’m really interested in hearing other people’s experiences with this engine.
I’m sure you have better things to do with your time but, could you please update this thread if you ever have any issues with your Challenger?
Good first car?
I like your review
Great review!! I’m purchasing my 2018 Dodge Challenger with the Black Top package on Black Friday..
Sean Connors u get it?
OMG amazing video
Ur vids r more informative i think
Excellent review
I have that same model
Are you enjoying it? I I'm thinking about getting one
That yellow hand lol. Makes the video good
Porque muerda nadie muestra las luces de estacionamiento, bajas y altas??
