I have a 2008 charger 3.5 with the same shutter problem in transmission between 1st & 2nd. Less than 400 miles on it. Returned the car to the dealership for repair. Was told the following day by service tech, this was a normal condition & i should drive the car more aggressive. They even put this on the service ticket. I again returned the charger for repair & they installed ... Read More...

Dodge Charger Prices Paid and Buying Experience

Couple questions

Written by: superdwarf on Oct 07, 2008 10:38 AM

Hey Folks I've never owned a Dodge but I am thinking about a Charger SRT-8. How is the build quality? How about Dodge customer service? Also, a local dealer has a 2007 and a 2008 unsold on the lot (never titled). Is an unsold 2007 a red flag for something is wrong with it? I know what TMV is as far as fair prices for a used 2007, but I can't find anything on how to deal with ... Read More...

Re: New 2008 Charger SE Plus...whistle noise from exhaust system [wterry]

Written by: wwhitejr75 on Sep 10, 2008 03:55 AM

Are you still having this problem? I love my Charger SE Plus, but I am hearing the same noises. I think this happens the worse when I am driving at constant speeds. I have to increase the speed of the vehicle in order for the noise to go away. The constant whistling noise outside of the vehicle is the fuel pump (at least this is what the Dodge technician has told me). We ... Read More...

Hi Car-Man I am looking at a pretty well optioned 2008 R/T AWD. Do you have residuals and money factors for a 36 month/12,000 mile lease? Also, what do you think of the $2.99 gas offer on a vehicle such as this vs. rebates, which I think are $3,000-$4,000 right now? Thanks! Read More...

Hi lewielew. Let's work up a sample lease payment on this car and see what we come up with. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2008 Dodge Charger SXT that has an MSRP of $26,385 and a selling price of $23,045 ($500 over invoice minus the $2,000 cash incentive) through Chrysler Financial right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, your zero ...

Written by: louiswei on Mar 20, 2008 09:07 AM

The G8 is a big car just like the 300, how it would be that much better just doesn't 'figure'. It's all about the steering response and handling, my captain. ;) From Inside Line's Comparison Test: 2008 Dodge Charger R/T vs. 2008 Pontiac G8 GT: - First of all, these are not small cars. But the Charger is even bigger than the G8. Slightly. - When the two are parked side ... Read More...

Written by: KarenS on Feb 25, 2008 08:20 AM

Cars like the new 2008 Pontiac G8 GT and 2008 Dodge Charger R/T were once supposed to be every American's birthright. Brawny, V8-powered, relatively affordable rear-drive cruisers that can blow through a couple of big Western states in an afternoon at 90 mph — their drivers staring at the horizon through Ray-Bans, steering with one hand and smoking a Pall Mall ...
