    Paid $32k for my 21, $45K for a year newer is crazy. Really great & fun car with enough power as a daily.

    A big time YES for anyone looking for a Mopar on a budget. Nothing wrong with the pentastar six cylinders, but the 5.7 is where the magic begins, and in my opinion the RT’s and Scats have the best sound since they’re naturally aspirated. To me they sound like a “modern day muscle car” in simpler terms, just pure raw exhaust and motor sounds 😎💪

    You can mod a 57 better than a 392. 392 can’t handle boost as well as the 57. Mods for the 57 would be intake, cam, long tube heads, exhaust, 392 ported manifold. Easy mods to make 420 to the wheel and keep up with 392s

      @@Clooger- Are you the one trolling? Nobody was talking about used cars, I'm strictly speaking new. I wouldn't even trust a used V8 Mercedes or BMW to last very long anyways, I'd still take a 5.7L hemi Charger over either one. Besides, most of those cars aren't even full size sedans, which is what the Charger really is competing with.
      Besides complaining that the 5.7L (or any Charger/Challenger V8) isnt the fastest is completely missing the point of the car. They are true muscle cars designed to be gigantic and heavy, not track cars. They ride excellently and have a presence that most other cars in their category do not have as a result. That's why they are cool. I don't really give a shit about a clapped out BMW.

    I've owned the Scat Pack and it was overpowered, if not pointless for 99% of drivers. I now own the GT because it looks almost exactly like the higher trims and has the same features for less money. The R/T is a good compromise between the two and will only cost you $100/month over the GT, if you just have to have the V8. The main downside is that car thieves love the Hemis and most of them can tell the difference. In my area, with incentives, you can get the R/T for less than 42K.

      I've owned a Scat Pack for awhile. Anyone that says these cars are slow, you'll get gapped by *insert other car name here*, etc. are straight clowns. 99% of the time, I can't even come close to utilizing all the power this engine puts out on normal city streets. Cool engine. Sounds awesome. Awesome amount of power. Borderline useless at times? Definitely.

    I have a 2014 pursuit with a couple of small mods like a tuner chip. These things are really fast for what they are. they will actually get away from you from a dead stop launch. and dont punch it around a fairly tight corner at 30 mph lol Mine has the cop exhaust (just a delete of the resonators far as I can tell) It sounds really good but is quite in the car till you punch it. 0-50 varies by surface from say 4.9-5.2 The slight mods I did maybe make it a tenth faster? they did make a difference as second gear shifts will light up the tires a bit now. My other car is an Ls converted 74 chevy c10 truck and seems that both cars run about the same but the charger seems a tad faster 80-120 One thing tho the charger has the old Br9 brakes which are the biggest dodge put on chargers This thing STOPS Soooo it was fun from the start and I haven't spent a bunch on it It was a $5500 car at auction LOL

    Its well known by now that the rated power numbers for the na v8s are underrated. The 5.7 is pushing at least 400 crank hp and the 6.4 about 500. But theyve changed nothing interior wise and are pretty much the same since 2015 besides a few tech upgrades here n there

The other thing I like is the column shifter instead of the center one. I did have to buy a center console as all the cop stuff was stripped out. I like the rubber floor instead of carpet also.I am going to program the Diablo tuner tho to get the scat pac screens.. Not sure how that will work tho with the smaller display.
