dodj he's closer to the traditional muscle car than any other automaker today I'm driving a 2015 Dodge Charger r/t scat pack and this is just one of nine versions that Dodge has the color of this Chargers modestly called b5 blue now that's a historic Dodge paint color and looks great in the Sun dodge says this model draws influence from the 1969 charger but I think it looks a little bit more like the first-generation 1966 charger due to the roofline in the shape of the hood anyway you cut it though this is a full-size sedan plenty of room in the rear seat for passengers this naturally aspirated 6.4 liter v8 starts off like a gunshot it makes for an 85 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque and that's all going to the rear wheels through an 8-speed automatic transmission there's a ton of torque from this engine and it's more than easy to get the rear tires loose even when I'm sitting at a stoplight I can feel the whole car shift around it's like a wild animal in a cage now the industry went to metric a long time ago for engine sizes but dodge still referred to the 6.4 liter is a 392 that's cubic inches but as much as this charger holds up traditional muscle car values it's quite a bit of modern tech here there's a display on this remote cluster where I can monitor real time horsepower real time torque and g-forces this 8.4 inch touchscreen on the dash shows dodges UConnect system one of the better infotainment systems around with navigation digital audio and hands-free telephone system one of the things I really like here is Yelp integration I could just push the Yelp app search for any term get a list of results and the navigation will take me where I want to go all right let's price out our 2015 Dodge Charger r/t scat pack base price for this model is forty thousand nine hundred ninety dollars delivered to go see nuts that will have navigation for five hundred ninety five dollars and what we don't have on this model is the driver confidence package with a blind spot monitor that's five hundred ninety five dollars or the technology package with adaptive cruise control that's nineteen ninety five we'd also want to add the Beats Audio package with ten speakers that's another nine ninety five and so that puts us at a total of forty five thousand one hundred and seventy dollars a lot of old-fashioned power in this charger r/t scat pack and you'll pay for it in for mileage I'm talking about well under twenty miles per gallon average but you will turn heads with the looks of this car the sound of that big v8 not to mention when you screech the tires every time you take off
