Sweet car. I like how these look.


They're pretty large, eh? Saw one on the road the other day. Maybe I'm just too used to my Honda.

It's not just by comparison to your Honda. They're huge.

2009 Challenger according to http://www.dodge.com/hostc/vsmc/vehicle ... =CUD200903# :
Overall length: 197.7"
Overall width: 75.7"
Overall height: 58.2"
Base Curb Weight - Automatic Trans: 3819 lbs V6, 4041 lbs V8

For comparison...some other vehicles most would describe as large or largish:

2009 Passat Wagon:
Overall length: 188"
Overall width: 71.7"
Overall height: 59.7"
Base Curb Weight: 3512 lbs

2009 Jeep Grand Cherokee:
Overall length: 188"
Overall width: 84.2"
Overall height: 67.4"
Base Curb Weight: 4316 lbs

Call it what you want, I'm just glad to see some big RWD V8 manual transmission cars being made...even if Dodge is making them.

I thought that it's larger than the Charger, but not so. The Charger is a couple inches longer and a few pounds lighter:
Length: 200.1"
Width: 74.5"
Height: 58.2"
Curb weight: 3727-3800 lbs
1980 Buick LeSabre 4.1L 5MT
