Review :Dodge Challenger SXT 2016

It's not fair to allow the engine to dominate the talk about this Dodge Challenger 2016. It's a car fine without the Hemi, carrying a retro lines with enough confidence to make up for a great visual size, the new running lights / front-end design and a wide range of colors / packs decal does not hurt, As for

The car can have a real muscular V6?

It's not fair to allow the engine to dominate the talk about this Dodge Challenger 2016. It's a car fine without the Hemi, carrying a retro lines with enough confidence to make up for a great visual size, a new run / front lights and front design and a wide range of colors / packs decal does not hurt, As for. New internal improvements FCA they have, by this point, replaced almost all of the foul, the old crappy plastic with the best materials. Entertainment system is still a large screened fast, functional and intuitive to some extent (even if it would be nice to have a few buttons for features such as heated seats) uconnect.
Even LX platform, which is probably high enough to get there in the early years are referred to as venerable as it is predictable and fun than ever before. When you find a corner, it's like swinging a sledgehammer: let the tool do the work. At its best, this machine muscle that, contrary to the latest pony car from Ford and Chevrolet, so do not pretend to look too far forward. I'm okay with that.
Do not get me wrong: The V6 3.6 liter enough - more than enough. Not much to listen to, perhaps, especially when you first hit the ignition button, but a lot faster if you do this kind of movement to crush the spirit that aims muscle cars to help us to escape.
When you do find a stretch of open road, the car sits happily in the controlled Cruz 85-90 miles per hour for hours without complaint. In the classification of 305 horsepower is not anything to sneeze, especially from the base engine. For some perspective extent we got as a kind, and the tendency six in '70 Challenger base managed 145 total horsepower and things only got worse when added emission controls.
Even today Challenger SXT is not a bad car by any measure in the past or the present. It's not just as good as any of the other Challengers, and the engine is just one part of that.
Other voices:
Challenger is an excellent example of how seemingly minor design changes can have a big impact on the final car's position. Look at Hellcat Challenger or 392 - it looks meaner, leaner. It looks right. They do not sit much lower than the SXT. Only 0.7 inches and Hellcat closer to the ground. But this difference of 0.7 inch completely change the position of the car, the higher the extra courtesy not slabbiness and SXT - he makes it look larger and tubbier than it already is.
But yes, there is also the issue of the engine. Whether or not you're in the market for, the fact that the Challenger Hellcat exists means that all the other Challenger is going to play a secondary role. Or the third or fourth fiddle - there's quite a group of Challengers to choose from: Aziz super 6.2-liter 0.392, and 5.7 liters.
This, like it or not, is the past chair, and you wind up with one because you only really care about how it looks Challenger (although I have argued that the other Challengers look better) or because you need at all to buy one now. But for that price, you could get on the R / T with a 5.7-liter. Who knows how long it will be able to enjoy cheap V8 power?
If you do not end up with the SXT, you do not condemn yourself to hell cars. I think we are all surprised to find that they actually quite decent with the V6. But if you're going to buy the honking of car muscle boat, one already burdened with its share of shortcomings (size, weight, poor visibility, even the so-called fuel economy), you're going to spend more than $ 30,000 on it, do yourself a favor and get one you really want
