I don’t understand the V6 hate. Nice car I would love to have one.
Thank you! From what I see there’s tons sitting on dealer lots so maybe you could get a deal. Thank you for watching!
I hate it because they don't offer a manual transmission. I wont drive an auto.
I think part of this has to do with horsepower inflation. Twenty years ago 300 hp would have been impressive. Now with the Scatpacks and Hellcats, the SXT's engine looks tame.
@@fortheloveofnoise9298 You sound like you might like a manual Challenger.
Bought a new 11' Challenger Rallye. Nappa leather, 305hp/W580, crazy fast and comfy. Fast-forward to last week...the LAST new RT Plus Blacktop 6-speed in GoMango! Such amazing machines; great review. The 3.6 is a modern-day 318 4BBL, and an excellent engine.
Major congrats on the RT, that’s awesome! And thank you for watching!
I just got one just like this with awd. I came from a hemi ram because the newer ones are too expensive and I don't miss the V8 power because this car hauls with the V6! Congrats!
Thank you! The AWD is a huge reason I went with this setup. Congrats to you too!
As a person who lives in Michigan I find myself wanting this vehicle in AWD drive as well!
@@Mister3Pac I bet!
@@Mister3Pacyou should get one. They’re pretty fast to me. Not v8 power but they get around pretty good and I love the awd
Good buy man. I got the SXT and love it. It’s all about having a great looking vehicle you enjoy to ride and making it yours. As a Veteran, I actual love the ball busting on not having the V8 as I give zero fucks about other peoples egos or penis sizes or lack there of. 😂👌
Keep up the great work buddy.
Agreed!! Refreshing to hear the same opinions. I appreciate the kind words. Thank you for your service too
V6 Gang 🔥 just picked up my 23'
@@carlhowardtv5819 awesome!!
Small penis cause you can afford more? You just sound insecure....... I was gonna get a v6 too BUT the difference is I wanted a muscle car not a soccer mom version of a muscle car but ehhhh to each their own.
@@carlhowardtv5819 got myself the '23 as well as a bday gift...all black..most of the V8 folks can only drive their shit in the summer🤣
Beautiful challenger. Got mine in frostbite pearl but that red is hot AF! Congrats bro! V6 or v8, its a challenger and it looks damn good. "Best looking cars to ever exist" ... agreed!
Thanks man! Congrats on yours too! And thank you for watching!
Dope review man! Just got a 2023 SXT, all black in a blackout package for a tremendous deal. Only one day in and I'm so happy. Hope your Challenger's been treating you great as well 👍
Congrats!! That’s an awesome color scheme. Mine’s been fantastic. You’ll love yours. Thank you for watching!
Sweet car! Looks so good in that color too. I’m excited to see what the MBRP exhaust sounds like in your car. I got it on my 2021 scat and love it.
A red with black Scat was my ultimate dream car! MBRP is on now and a video will be coming soon. Sounds great for a V6! Thank you for watching!
Awesome car bro congrats. I got a 2012 sxt still rocking with it and it rides awesome. It’s V6 but i still enjoy it a lot
Thanks man! I love the old school looks from that generation. Congrats to you too! And thank you for watching!
Great pick! Congratulations!
Thank you very much! And thank you for watching!
Great review!
Appreciate you! Thank you for watching!
Nice car! Love the color with the Blacktop package! Very cool!!
Thank you Scott! And thank you again for supporting the channel!
Great looking car! Love the red. Buying your dream car is always a grand occasion. Happy for you! Enjoy!
Appreciate the support! Thank you for watching!
I got a 22 challenger gt in hellraisin purple. I love it. I also discovered if you run good gas in it it gets 30 mpg or more on a regular basis.
Absolutely! I just ran a 3 hour trip at 29.6mpg. Thank you for watching!
Congrats!
Thank you! And thank you for watching!
I Have a 2022 Challenger GT AWD. its a daily driver all year car. When its raining and snowing you will be glad you have the AWD... the higher trims are for racing, hobby cars. The SXT and GT are for people who want the look on their daily driver. V6 is not slow either, its actually faster than youll ever need it to be for driving. Racing it would need a RIPP Charger which you can do if you want... voids the warranty though. One last thing I want to mention, the front GT badge can be removed very easily, its just a clip you can take it off by hand and snap it back on if you want.
People love to hate. And I think the guys with the V8’s don’t like how similar the vehicles look. Not our fault. Congrats on yours. So much fun. Thank you for watching!
Congratulations, young man, that is a beautiful car. 😍
I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Great looking car!!
I’m thrilled to share it with so many people. I appreciate the comment! Thank you for watching!
Beautiful car. Congrats
Thank you, and thank you for watching!
Good 4 u my friend...👍....as long as ur satisfied w/ ur purchase ✌️

Just got my first v6 Challenger! Absolutely my dream car. Congrats man!
Massive congrats to you! You’re going to love it! Thank you for watching!
Great choice! The identical spec,color I want. One DAY.
Go for it if you can, you won’t regret it! Thank you for watching!
This is my dream car, I hope I can buy one one day
Awesome ride and Congrats!! My Son bought a 23 blacktop in sublime. Couple of corrections. 7” screen no performance pages. My son ordered the 8.4 screen still has no performance pages. 0 to 60 in 6.0 . For all the 3.6 bashers this is a fantastic powerplant. It makes more power than 80% of all classic muscle cars. The SXT is a great looking car and an amazing value. Great looks, power, fuel economy and comfort.
Thank you and congrats to your son! I’m really frustrated with no performance pages on the SXT. How is it not enough money for that. I love the power, handling, looks, sound with my catback system, and overall driving experience. Unless someone is a mopar fan or really knows cars well, they aren’t going to know if I’m driving a hellcat or SXT which is another thing I love about this. They just see an awesome car. Thank you for watching!
Agreed! Do you have samples of your exhaust my son is looking at options? Thanks

@@alanhowitzer that’s great! Congrats, you’ll love it!
Beautiful car, I have the 2021 sxt challenger red as well lol I like how they added the dodge rims and dodge logo on the spoiler
Appreciate it! Congrats on yours as well. Best looking cars ever. Thank you for watching!
Good video. I recently bought a 2015 SXT. Been wanting one since the Chally was brought back. I'm glad I waited for a 2015 that I could afford; I love the updated interior. Mine is Torred, my favorite color, but sadly doesn't have the sunroof. Oh well. Enjoy it dude!
Love hearing that, congrats!! Hope we both enjoy our for years to come. Thank you for watching!
Beautiful car!!! Definitely like the K&N air filter. I recently purchased a 22 Challenger myself and I love it. Mopar all the way
Hell yes! Congrats on your rig, that’s awesome! And thank you for watching!
I got the same car on octane red. The V6 has some great pickup. It handles great and its comfy. I use it as my daily driver which is great for gas. So much fun spinning out the rear tires too!
That’s awesome! I wish I saw more in my area. Best daily ever. Thank you for watching!
Beautiful vehicle
Appreciate it! Thank you for watching!
The mix of the body and the amber halos make this car look so badass omfg. This is literally my dream car
You’re absolutely right. Best looking cars I’ve ever seen. Thank you for watching!
Good buy congrats
Thank you very much! And thank you for watching!
Nice wheels💪👏
Appreciate it! Thank you for watching!
I just bought a last call GT and I have a 10 RT Challenger I love the body style
Best body style ever. Thank you for watching!
Nice video. How much was the MSRP with the options that you have? I was getting confused with all the options on their website.
Mine was 39K and change. AWD, Blacktop, and Sunroof are roughly 5K in extras. Thank you for watching!
Ngl I think the sxt is really best for beginners, good job getting your dream bro🎉
And best for those who don’t necessarily have the means of owning a V8. This SXT is perfect for my life. Thank you for watching!
Red and black works really nice with the Challenger. Speced my RAM with the same color combo as well.
Love that on the RAMs. Thank you for watching!
I have a red 50th Anniversary Edition V6 Challenger GT and I love it. I had a Scat Pack Charger in 2017, and although I do miss that sound, I don't miss the gas cost and the added insurance cost. My car is "fast enough" for my personal needs as it is my every day driver. Don't let the HEMI boys get to you!
That’s a sweet car, congrats on both! The V8 folks won’t get to me, lol. Thank you for watching!
Nice ride!! Very good looking.
There is not hate for V6s (you mentioned it somewhere).
A V6 is a huge and powerful engine by itself. You probably produce more power and torque than the corresponding V8s back in the late 60s-70s
Enjoy it!!
The V6 isn’t the hate, the “V6 muscle car” is the hate. But this thing is perfect for me. Thank you for watching! Appreciate the comment.
Congratulations, I love the color. Wish mine was red.
Thank you! What color is yours?
Indigo Blue
@@dwaynejohnson3922 awesome! I don’t see many that color
Yesterday got a brand new 2023 challenger Gt for a great price. I’m loving the car.
GT is beautiful. Congrats my man! Thank you for watching!
I'm going to get a used GT AWD fully loaded but want mine in pastel pink with 2 racing stripes in black down the entire car. Thats in 2025 though can't do it this year due to SRS and being off work 2 months. AWD is a must for me so can't do a scat they suck in teh snow just like my current Camaro. nice show friend :D
That’ll be a sweet ride for you! I hope it works out. Thank you for watching!
Bro, great review. Not to technical but informative. One tip, you need a clip on mic. Your outdoor pick up was weak.
Working on the mic, but appreciate the feedback. Thank you for watching!
Add you a Throttle response on your car. It will only just make it quicker off the line, check them out I had one on my V6 jeep ( Hikeit )
I appreciate the suggestion! And thank you for watching!
Get yourself a pedal Commander for that lag. I've put it in 3 mopars so far. It's awesome
I’ve heard lots of mixed reviews on pedal commander. Some love it and some have issues with them. I’ll look into it specifically for this vehicle though. Thank you for watching!
@@Benscarreviews the common mistake is changing settings while in motion. Don't use the app and set your level before before putting it in gear. 3 years, and not one issue.
@@rikwilkinson1451 gotcha, I’ll check it out!
I want this for my next car in all black with the black rims 🤩
All black is a sick look! And this setup is the most affordable way to get something like this. Thank you for watching!
@@Benscarreviews I’ll trade my car in soon for this one I currently have a Chevy Malibu 2020
@@telbo6792 hopefully you get your moneys worth on the trade!
I’m currently in one of these as a rental while my other car gets fixed. Not too impressed with it. I was just curious what reviews were for it. Thanks for this.
Not for everyone, but that’s okay. Thank you for watching!
I literally just bought this car, and it’s my dream car also. Fully Loaded with all leather interior.
Nice man!! I would’ve loved fully loaded but I went as cost efficient as I could. My trade in covered it perfectly. Congrats to you and thank you for watching!
Check out my channel for my MPRB exhaust videos!
@@Benscarreviews I totally get it, and I'm fortunate that the numbers worked out. Thank you!
Nice .
Thank you for watching!
I went for older model 2014 RT rather than new model V6 . I couldnt accept it for some reason
To each their own. Congrats on the RT! Thank you for watching!
So I’m an old 72 year old duffer, I had a 70 340 cuda. I now own a 2022 challenger gt, I have to say the 22 is a much more refined car and is almost as fast as the 340 cuda was and has air conditioning and is much more comfortably granted it doesn’t sound as good as the v8 and the lope of the cam. But oh well I love the challenger, just my two cents.
That’s a great real life experience for people to hear. Appreciate you taking the time to share. Thank you for watching!
I took my friend for a ride recently and he has a scat charger, he thought mine was an R/T up til we got back, the v6 will leave other brands v8 at the light.. it’s faster than people think.
Oh wow, that’s cool to hear. The engine also does sound very nice. Thank you for watching!
Hey! I'm with you, that's a sharp looking car V6 or no. Haters can hate! I just purchased an SXT Plus 2023. It came with fog lights but they appear to be halogen, while the headlights appear to be LED? Do you know that's the case? Appreciate the video! Nice car 🏁🔥 Mine is octane red by the way...🤗♥️
Yes that’s the setup I have. Congrats on your new ride! Octane Red is sweet. Thank you for watching!
So did that cold air intake void your warranty?
Intake is safe. I talked to the dealership about it. Shouldn’t be any issues. Thank you for watching!
So, what was the exact price you paid all in, down the road ( dealer fees, registration, etc)? What was sticker price? My 2023 Charger GT PLUS listed for $43,025. My down the road price was $41,224. Just curious.
All in I was $39,500 out the door. My dealer only had allocation left for SXT’s, otherwise I would’ve considered the GT heavily. Although, I like the SXT hood more so I’m happy with mine. Great to hear your out the door price wasn’t too bad. You managed to get a 2023 for $1,800 less than sticker?
I just calculated how much I saved compared to the MSRP ( sticker price), BEFORE all added on legalities and dealership fees, I saved $5,068.
@@stevesmith6236 that’s awesome!
I mean... people are gonna see the hood, and ride height and see its a v6, unless its a pre-2018 R/T that has the SXT hoodscoops. But own it, it's your car. I started with my Charger GT, and I'm already in my Daytona R/T. Possibly getting into a widebody by the end of this year.
Mopar people will know, but they aren’t the majority is my point. Most people won’t know what trim I’m driving. Congrats on your awesome ride! Thank you for watching!
I’m 6ft tall and 320lbs. Big guy. How comfy you think I’d be?
I have plenty of headroom at 6’4. I’m 200lbs and the seat fits me well. It’s easy to get in and out for me. Hard to know exactly but I’d say you could be comfy! Thank you for watching!
Is it a bad idea to get this in RWD if you live up north?
I’d say it all depends on how often you’re driving in snow, ice, or any slick conditions. Other than that, should be totally fine. Thank you for watching!
@@Benscarreviews thanks!
Do you recommend getting all season tires?
@@EnterTainment-vv1qs mine came with Pirelli All-Seasons so I’m going to see how they perform through this first winter with them
Unless you go to the track, you don't need anything more. 300 horsepower for a daily driver is more than enough. Plus I heard the v8s have that cylinder deactivation, and the v6 does not.
300 is perfect for me and I’m sure the majority of drivers. I don’t get the hate for it! Thank you for watching!
@@Benscarreviews you are welcome good sir. I hope you get many fun miles out of your awesome car.
Nice ride i just bought mine last call rt blacked out black top edition. They are comfortable rides and great looking enjoy
Awesome congrats!! RT must be a blast. If I lived in a southern climate or had a second vehicle then I would’ve gone for a V8. SXT with the AWD fits my needs perfectly. Thank you for watching!
Just snagged a 2023 lime scatpack with the shaker package! Got a steal and last call why not 😂🎉

Are these cars reliable?
This engine has been around for a long time and I’ve read it’s very tried and true. Should be super reliable with great care. Thank you for watching!
Just done some very Extensive research and found out the Dodge challenger is like the Toyota of Muscle cars. Expect 300k miles EASY 150k-200k
@@miles6592 treating it well will pay off!
Better mpg, also V8 requires premium 89.

You think this car look better then the 6th gen camaro?
In my opinion yes. Partly because I’m just not a fan of the Camaro design. I think a ZL1 1LE looks phenomenal but not so much the bottom trims.
@@Benscarreviews thanks
@@Benscarreviews does this look better then the C7 and C8 corvettes?
@@V8_Gang I think the C7’s are one of the best designs ever. But the body of these Challengers will always be my #1.

Ample reasons why I didn’t buy a V8. I’m thrilled with what I have.
@@Benscarreviewsexactly unless you have the demon 170 the word V8 is irrelevant, great car!
Were you going to pay for it 😂😂😂
I see no v8 on your channel😂😂
The bank probably owns your car.
my white blackout AWD 2023LC(last call) I've own with only 22 miles on it. because it was a V6 it was parked in the deep back back parking area for the dealer, so it was a great deal too. I've got on up to 812 miles now and I'm very happy with this car. and 6.8 on track gage and still very new, with good MPGs @ 29 respectfully that's city, freeway. great looking and great car! I work at a Dodge dealership in n. Cali and talking to the mechanic's that theses V6, 3.6 VVT are great engines that have long life if taken care of correctly. I've seen the newer ones in jeeps and Cherokees Caravans rentals etc and challengers as well in CHP Chargers cars and theses engines had ruff 150k+++miles on them and still going strong. very impress from these engines.
Congrats on the car and happy to hear it’s going well! Thank you for watching!
How much y’all paid. These going for 46k+ atm😭 here
@@krig6947 that’s wild! For an SXT?
@@krig6947 since the car was in the back dealership lot and was really forgotten it pri$ed at 41,300 but had a time stay was going on 5 months I came in and asked about the deal, so after taking it home for 2weeks and liken it and a respectable down$$ I got a $11,200 discount and free body warranty added on. Now 2024 and only 1,060 miles I'm very much happy about this Challenger still turns heads next back up to Lake Tahoe for a test ride, it's home will be in LT I used to respect Mopar now not anymore. But words to the wise the E systems in Cherokee's, jeeps and Ram and even the Pacifica vans suck always problem very new and Dodge always takes a big hit at the dealership. Stay away from these systems. Really all manufacturers are having a hard time with reliability and I mean all Lexus Honda Subaru Ford yeah stay away Cali is stupid for forcing the people to buy them.....
