Anyone here own or driven a 2009 challenger

Like the titles says has any one here driven or own a dodge challenger I am thinking of getting one and I want to know how it performs. (any information on winter driving would be great)

My friend drives one. He let me drive it, and the torque is siiick!

No, but they look awesome, and I sat in one at a show and it was nice. It just has that feeling of being an awesome car to drive

I drove one before. It is a very powerful car (V8 version), and handles well. It has a comfortable interior and a lot of fun buttons to push. Get manual, don't get the automatic tranny, you'll never learn to drive a manual if you get an automatic, which can help later in life when you get a really fast sportscar and need to drive it off the lot without scratching the gears or dropping the clutch. Any more info needed?

Oh yeah, my Dad was playing with the shifter at the show (I haven't tried driving a manual yet, so I didn't ), and he said it felt really good, so that shouldn't be a concern if you take TahoE's advice.

It depends, its a muscle car so plenty of power and torque, that being said its a straight line car. Not the type of car you would take to your local autocross. Get the manual tranny, you will get a much better experience. And as for winter driving...I wouldn't recommend it lol.

Truly is a beautiful machine

From the sounds of it it drives really well

My dad crashed one of these last winter. The handling was pretty funky, I guess. He wasn't even drunk. He traded it for a BMW M3

It does look like a great car
