Love the power and the handling is impressive for a big car but the interior felt cheap as fuck in usual dodge fashion.

Overall not bad but I would only buy one if I had the flow to redo the interior completely.

A friend of mine has a 300. I've never seen such a port-a-potty plastic interior as that one. I'm not surprised the Challenger had a cheap interior.

Very nice looking as far as the exterior, like it much better than the current Mustang. (since both retro)

Not seen the interior of it, but I'm surprised so many companies still don't understand that since you spend so much time inside the car, it's just as important as the exterior.

I was supposed to rent one when I went to SD. They gave it away to someone else and issued me the infamous Caliber instead

I'd love to drive one someday, heck I'd even be glad to own one...

Whatchoo like better, 1970 or 2008 (or is it 09?)?
