I’ll be honest, my challenger RT was 46 WITH the brembo brakes and nicer rims. It was ok stock but with the right exhaust and a tune these are GREAT fun cars. Mine has long tubes and a borla atak, sounds insane
I went new RT because I know how most of these used cars have been abused and don’t want the issues. I have this exact same car for my family but 2023 last call edition with leather and the sunroof. Of course it’s not as fast as a scat pack. But you can “beat” them from light to light and should last well over 200kmiles
Current owner of a 2017 5.7 R/T. I got mine used at 70k miles. From my personal experience the 5.7 IS NOT WORTH all that money. Maybe 30k max!! Plus NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE OR WHICH TRIM YOU DRIVE, these cars get targeted by police and EVERYBODY races you for reasons unknown 😏
@@sendit3251got mine at 36k..... currently 44500. No problems.....some tried stealing it and broke out my upper front grille and cut my horn harnesses. 🤦🏾♂️
The RT line is the underrated car in Dodges lineup. I have rented 3 RTs (two Challengers and one Charger) and every time I drive one it makes me grin from ear to ear. The RT is DEFINATELY underrated. 😁
Its because a lot of the doofuses on the internet go "OH ITS ONLY 370HP??? HOW WEAK AND UNDERPOWERED" or say how you really should just mod it, both parties completely misunderstand the purpose of the R/T. It's not supposed to be some crazy performance model, it was always, even since 2005, intended to be a daily driver V8 model. It's literally using the workhorse truck motor. Unlike the Scat Pack or Hellcat, it doesn't require premium fuel, the parts for it are far cheaper (unless you option it with performance upgrades), and it gets much better fuel economy as well. Plus the engine itself is far cheaper and easier to find parts for. Its essentially supposed to be an old-school nod to how most American sedans in the 60s and 70s were daily driven with torque-y V8s, not even sport sedans, just normal cars. Its the same principle, but because the Scat Pack and Hellcat are so insane it makes the R/T trim look muted by comparison. Its still an incredibly fun car, any Hemi is great. And honestly I think the narrowbody Scat Packs/392s are sort of worthless next to the R/T if they have the 245 wheels, as the traction barely holds together on even the R/T. Imo you have to either get an SRT narrowbody or a widebody Scat Pack/Hellcat to even really utilize the extra horsepower all that much.
I picked up my 2022 RT just last week. Only 2k miles on it, paid 35k for it and I freakin love it! It’s the perfect car for those looking for some muscle but not trying to break the bank as well
Literal twin to my charger I have on my channel as well. Handles and performs beautiful. Only difference is that I got this car back in September of 2022 for 37k at a 2.9% rate 0 miles. Also changed my front grille to the scat pack snorkels and it looks gorgeous. Great video man
😂 everybody in the comments swear they know all of the good deals. If you want a nice reasonable gt500, just ask the people in the youtube comments. They'll know where to find that car for $5 dollars 😂
😂 no it’s not worth it you can easily find a good scat pack for 25-30k on market place that lil baby 5.7 not worth it. Drive a scat pack next and you will see why it’s a better choice.
Sorry me personally can’t buy no muscle car used. All the wear and tear on them engines need to be from what I did to it. I will save to buy new or I’m not buying at all unless I really don’t plan on keeping it
@@ProfessorDrivesthere’s definitely some in Texas, Charger & Challenger hellcats. I seen some on Carfax mainly in the Dallas, Austin & San Antonio area
The GT version has 300 hp. You say it weighs 4400 pounds? nope. Closer to 4290 without a sun roof.. Put down the red bull and walk away. Just a bit too excited and animated . Calm down.
laugh your ass off? I've been a professional auto and motorcycle mechanic longer than you've been alive. Real professionals take comments both good and not so good with a mature attitude, not using acronyms like lmao. How old are you?@@ProfessorDrives
I'm tired of these "is it really worth it" videos. Price gouging is never justified and we should never tolerate it, we should stop making excuses for corporate America's bullshit.

“getting robbed or pulled over” lmfao dawg 😭
😭😭😭 45k is wild dog
V8
I payed 41 in 2021 for mine inflation works like that back then the scat pack was 46-47
@@Mike1- I was gonna say 45k is worth a scar and I don’t even have any v8, but I know what sounds fair.
@@AlexEpikGamer Times are no longer fair look at the house market a house that would be 250K is know 450K or more

Sport mode also opens up your active exhaust
$45,000 R/T with anywhere from 0-35k miles or $45,000 Scat Pack/392s with anywhere from 20k-55k miles… depends on your preference

Got mine august 22’ for 46 7% I thought it was a good deal the way people were talking about v8 are going extinct
Now you can find decent scats for 35
C7 with under 30k miles is for that price, if you don’t have a family c7 over this dodge
awesome deal man congrats I’d rather have a mustang gt they’re always cheap and love boost if you really wanted to take it up another level
@@tsuk2430 I’m working trying to get c7 Z06, that’s my current goal for this year, I like mustangs but they’ve never been my thing, but I respect them
@@chrisg4997you're going to LOVE it!
No
When using launch control put traction in normal mode. It’s easier to prevent the wheels from spinning.
I wouldn't mind a rt but I got a scat and I'm happy with it
I went for a used 2018 AWD 5.7 Police Pursuit. So happy :) $14,500 CAD
Love it 😍! I have an identical Charger 😊!
The comment about the tailights 😂
btw @1:43 i can read your license plate number 🤣🤣👍👍

Hey my rt got brembos on it brand new
5 second 0-60, its alright but im not shocked or anything. But the exhaust sounds decent imo
S h u t u p decent
Awesome video but please find a safer place to do 0 to 60 or launches 🤦🏽♂️,that curve with that oncoming truck was scary 😢😅
You brave goin around them wet corners with traction control off my rt would slide off the mountain
I love my 2022 redeye it’s a perfect first car
CAP
@@gforce55510 I got it when I was 18 been a year with it
3000rpm start looking at a blind corner ?
45 for a rt? I remember scatpacks being 42k lol
Hell nah I got a 2019 RT used for 28k OTD
This is NOT a 2022 Dodge Charger. 2022 Dodge Chargers came with new updated headlights.
I got mine 2022 with 6k miles on it for 33k. I'm pretty happy with it
We twins bro this exactly what i paid for my 2022 RT had exactly 6k miles as well 😂 congrats bro 🤝
A new R/T doesn’t have 5 or so accident incidents and damage reported. 5:52
😂 everybody in the comments swear they know all of the good deals. If you want a nice reasonable gt500, just ask the people in the youtube comments. They'll know where to find that car for $5 dollars 😂
I paid $35k for my used 2021Gt lmao
35k mustang will smoke that
For 45k that’s like scatpack price news or used hellcat 2017 at least
2023 Scat Pack here in Cali for 44,000 new
Ecoboosts can punch up to Scatpacks, GT can take hellcats and more.
You paid more than a GT for this heap.
😂 no it’s not worth it you can easily find a good scat pack for 25-30k on market place that lil baby 5.7 not worth it. Drive a scat pack next and you will see why it’s a better choice.
I understand but a lot of ppl saying that for an extra 3-5k them rts can be scat lvl speed or above
Bro dodge is overpriced in general, i got my 2016 camaro with 30k miles for 32k 3 years ago and the performance is a lot better on these lt1s.
I had a 2019 of the same exact car and paid literally half the price of this one. I wouldn't mind another Mopar, but they're overpriced af
45k? Gtfoh. I literally saw a C7 corvette that was procharged with only 36k miles on it 700whp at a dealer for $42k
Just buy a lightly used scat pack…
no, stop overpaying.
I’ve seen hellcat challengers and for 45k wit 60-70k miles so I wouldn’t go fo this
If I found a good condition one for $45k I'd probably seriously consider buying that
