Is the V6 Challenger SXT worth it
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- Today I tested a 2016 Dodge Challenger SXT to see if it was worth buying over the much desired V8 R/T. Although it may have its setbacks I believe the v6 was able to prove itself to be a worthy car in my book!!

Absolutely, for a car you can buy in the low 20k range new. It's has 300hp, good gas mileage, comfortable, nice interior, with plenty of room, and it does very well on the highway. Good all around car for the money, plus you can fit family or friends in it too.
Just got one for $20k with rebates. With the tech package and they threw in a custom red leather interior. A Corolla would've cost more
White Boy new?
White Boy what year?
@@jadbarazi4138 yes brand new have a video if it
@@jreyes2446 2020 price was actually $24k out the door.
I drive this in high school and must I say this car feels amazing for a first car. Satisfies me more than enough , my goal is to get a v8 on my own later on in my life and experience the power
how much was insurance and what year and model was it?
Toopy I pay 200 for insurance but my parents help me a lot with the car , It’s 2019 SXT . My family does have good credit so we lowered the cost a little bit. I mainly pay for the car tho bc I have a good job
Trapmuzik281 you own or lease. imma be asking lotta questions cuz i REALLY want this car too. if you do own it tho, did you pay in full? can you break it down for me lmao
Trapmuzik281 how much u pay often in gas per month
Same except mines a 2015 sxt
Just bought my SXT and I love it. No problem whatsoever with it being a v6
I love my dodge challenger sxt, it drives good and I had it for 2 years now 😙 it's pretty fast, but I'm not looking for getting pull over by cops, I got my v6, and it's perfect for me.
Have you dealt with any major maintenance issues
@@carson6451 no, none, as long as you keep up w the oil change and just regular maintenance in the car, you will love you're challenger.
I have one , a 2010 se , modified with true dual exhaust with Flowmasters , lowered, a cold air induction system, a 93 octane tune, so 300 hp and 275 foot pounds of torque. In 2024 it has 94,000 miles and the only problems I had was a bad door lock actuator and a battery. It has been a great car.
I have both & if you’re a daily driver just get a v6. It’s smooth still has the beautiful body work & not to mention you’ll save gas. I currently use my v6 to drive to work & just use my r/t on the weekends. More of a joy car going for the v8 in my opinion.
I can’t even imagine what you do for a living to casually own 2 of the same cars except one with a more powerful engine
Most people who prefer hemi/V8 probably can't even handle the car.. if you live in congested areas I dont feel it's all that necessary to push all that power down the street ... I can see if you lived near the desert or somewhere secluded where you can actually take the car to open up the engine.. Otherwise you can expect a lot speeding tickets.. hopefully no accidents and or fatalities... it's nothing wrong with having a V6/base mod engine.. especially if you like to chill and drive
Cavarri Comanche 💯👌🏾
I have the v6 and I wish I could've afforded the v8 scat pack but it's all good. It's a heavy car and it can def use the extra power. But definitely isn't slow
I had a V6 Charger for 3 years and recently just got an RT 6 speed manual and let me tell you, I can handle the power, I actually want to put more power into it.
Booo
I love challengers! and i think sxt is perfect for a first car.
Yesss I want to it
It's mine. It's the best I could do where I'm at. Especially in these times. Certainly has the looks! Plus I plan to upgrade some parts. Sure I'm not gonna be beating any V8s any time soon but I didn't have that in mind when I bought it.
Can i ask you how much ø you pay for these challengers in the US ?
@@Oliver0511 32000 dollars Maybe I don't know that much because I live in india but soon I will import a dodge sxt plus for me in india 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
@@papayajuice1137 2016‘ V6 90.000 Kilometers on the clock cost around 20k in Germany. I asked because he said its great as the first car and i think thats a bit expensive. But i do also know that muscle cars are kinda cheaper than in Europe
I’ve had a ton of GREAT outlooks. #1 it’s better to buy a low option V8 than a high option 6. It’s harder to put power in than it is to put in creature comforts. #2 everyone that buys a 6 ends up getting the 8 and wasted there time. #3 if you need a daily .. buy a daily. This is where the V6 shines. Day to day. It’s the perfect combo. I bought mine brand new in 2016, I got 29.6 mpg from Portland Oregon to Reno NV and we made a ton of bathroom stops. It has every option, it’s big, never feel cramped. It’s still fun AF to dog race on highway.
I got the 2020 Dodge Challenger GT RWD in Torred Red last week and I'm in love with it. Absolutely my favorite car purchase ever besides my first car which was a 2000 Ford Mustang Coupe in Torred Red as well.
I have an AWD SXT and it just snowed in Iowa. Thing is a monster. So yes, don’t be a simpleton and listen to the douchey car race boys. It’s an awesome car.
I got an sxt not because of the price difference but Bc I’m in hs and that v8 sucks gas and I don’t make enough to cover everything lol
I feel you bro. But i have a question. With almost 1000 euro/month can i afford it? I wanna buy thos thing... But... I am not sure if i can afford to cover everything
A Stranger depends on how much the car cost and if you wanna put anything down or lease or whatever you wanna do
@@andreiflorea7382 Doable, but a dumb decision financially if you're still in that situation. As much as people don't want to hear it, get a beater, it's nice knowing you can actually afford something and aren't in debt.
Have 70 V8 challenger that gets 4mpg, would enjoy this V6 for a daily
If Ford made the challenger, it would come with a 4 cylinder turbo
I remember when Corvettes had a lot less power out of their V8's
I know its perfect for anyone in need of a car
Guy doesn't even work there anymore.....these dealers hire people for a month, get them to use up all their friends and family favors, then dump them.
eddie brown thats every dealer in America..
Just purchased a 2018 challenger sxt (all on my own. i just turned 19 ) . Coming from a guy who LOVEs speed and loves going fast V6 is MORE than enough power. ESPECIALLY in these sxts. I am so satisfied with everything.. I was originally going to go with a mustang but Test drove challenger and it’ doesn’t even come close. Future car is a scatpack or hellcat. tho
I had one rented for 20 days while my car in the shop and I love it I’m planing to buy a one in summer
IMHO, the white, red or blue are FANTASTIC and hot AF.
I swear
I say a v6 challenger is a good entry-level sports car I am looking to buy my first challenger it's been my dream to own one. But at the same time, I am not the biggest sports car enthusiast I have much to learn plus for now the only ones that will be in my cat is my girlfriend and a few friends. I'm 23 and have never owned one so I believe it would be a good start for me. Honestly, my friend just recently bought himself a 2018 Challenger v8 T/A and riding in that a few times with sports mode on I do not mind buying the cheaper SXT v6 to start with and feel the differences between the two. Pus it is more within my budget.
Pretty wise. This is exactly what i’ma do 👍🏾
And?
Yessssss! 2020 SXT.😍❤
Im loving mine every day so Id give that a fat yes
I live in Belgium, I'm planning on buying a Challenger within the next few years.
Over here we are paying taxes on cc so if i don't want to pay a fortune, i have to buy the smallest engine type, being the sxt.
(We're really screwed here)
It's same here in Austria 😅 dealing with drugs not that big problem like having a care specially V8 😬
@@mramu6200 🤔 and the next problem :
I'm afraid that by the time I can buy a challenger, we will only be aloud to buy electric cars here...
@@sammylenjou4235 Thats what might really happen...now there are just a marketing for those electric cars!! if you get an electric one..you will pay no more taxes!! if you want to get one like Dodge or corvette or Mustang...you have to pay at least 4000 Euro each year.
@@sammylenjou4235 sxt is the only option ...you will be aloud to get V6 or even V8 as long as you pay for the government :)
@@mramu6200 yes, typical.
And over here we have low emission zones in every city now... We can only drive in with an older diesel IF we pay.
When we pay, suddenly our car isn't polluting anymore.
I don’t really get the V6 RWD version, but the AWD is money. Even experienced RWD drivers say the V8 can be challenging in rain, and worse in snow. The AWD eats rain and snow for lunch.
You can’t trust a car salesman’s word how great a car is. If they sold boxes of mouse shit it would be great.
I'd prefer a Camaro v6 over the challenger cause I got my 2016 Camaro rs for 20k and it keeps up with new rt HEMI something the v6 challenger could never do and go 150mph top speed limited. There hella fast for v6 have me holding on for deer life. CAI and axle back I'm pushing 370hp
The camaro weighs 500-750 pounds less
GT owner, honestly as a person living in LA, i cant for the life of me see why anyone would want to own an R/T. maybe outside of the city.
@Mikeman Jordan I already have issues with how fast I'm running through gas and I only drive it 10 miles a day
cool vid! im getting a Frostbite SXT w/BlkTop pkg in 2 weeks, but they have to get it from another dealer thats like 100 miles away. hope that doesnt take long! anyway the V6 has just 20 hp less than my old 02 SS, but the main difference is torque, where the SXT puts out 268, my SS had 350 .. so we'll see! i'm sure i'll be pleased, i'm just looiking for a nice daily driver ☮
Just got the exact same car and came from a dealer 115 miles away only had it 4 days so far but I love it and I'm stepping down from a hemi ram 1500 lol
My GT goes good in the snow and is a good commuter.
I want it soooooo baddd
Great video.A v6 Challenger is like David Goggins on ritalin though.
With a Ripp SuperCharger bye bye RT
I just want to know how reliable they are with just stick and proper maintenance I’m thinking this or just sticking to Infiniti Coming from a vq35hr
They are not too bad just take care of it and it will last longer than ur average car
'Passé composé' + Present, Future, or Imperative
Should I get a 2019 sxt challenger or a 2018 challenger r/t for about 6 grand more?
2018 rt for sure
Rt
I’d get the sxt first, get used to the car. Jumping straight into the r/t and all that hp and you’re sure to wreck your whip. Work your way up.
Jake OZ not true I went from a 1987 Silverado to a 2012 srt8, and the power is manageable easily(keep it out of sort mode until you get a feel for it and you should be good), unless you’re a terrible driver. I think my old truck taught me to drive, because no traction control/bad brakes in comparison.
YES 👍
Traded for a brand new 2019 Camaro 3LT
Good luck, those camaros are notorious for oil pressure problems and causes engine problems, look it up
@@paisa013 Better than Dodge.
Between 2017 and 2019 dodge sold more challengers than Chevy sold camaros, my homie is a manager at Chevy and even he will tell u to stay from any camaro after 2015 they are in the repair shop sooooo often, most of them with oil pressure problems,, other than a few minor recalls, dodge has not had serious problems and they outsell camaros, lol not hating, just facts, look it up
I have a v6 2019. Honestly it’s definitely not worth it . This car will get dusted by a decent amount of regular cars. I should’ve saved up for the v8.
GrizzlySkater234 I could be wrong but i heard if you add a supercharger then it can beat a v8. So basically an sxt with a exhaust system, air filter and supercharger mod would still cost less than a v8, plus you’re getting better mpg and insurance is cheaper. I did some research because I want a 2019 sxt and some are posted as a leftover new for just under 20k
@@Justin-sx6se a good supercharger is around 6k. I feel like if you add power to a v6, you also should upgrade everything else (ex brakes, tires etc). In the end, it may likely become more of a money pit and a hassle than buying something like a 392.
Ive beated alot of cars...its the driver.
@@freshlyfe4400 no it aint ,stop lying to yourself. I had rolls at 50 and I was getting gapped by some random chevy commuter car.
U just cant drive
Does this car have a backup camera
Yes
Song?
No!
Not!
Never!
Save up your money then get the v8 you have absolutely no idea!
The 5.7l hemi is the cheaper route & you can Diablo tune,swap camshafts,MDS delete,muffler delete,etc etc. even supercharge.
Do not water the money it’s gutless fuck your budget!
Lol all the v6 owners trying to justify their purchase.
Tool comment. Smh
Hell no, I went for a SRT 392, gotta have the big boy in a challenger, v6 is for sissies
And you needing a bigger engine shows you are trying to compensate for other things lol
Big fat Noooo!!!
