RT with R/T Sports Package

2007 Dodge Charger RT 4dr Sedan (5.7L 8cyl 5A)

Review

I get roughly 19.5 City and 26 Highway with the MDS. The car is quiet, smooth riding and very comfortable ( 6'2 , 240 )while cruising and very agile, throaty when accelerating. Dependability has been excellent thus far with 30k. The steering, seating and pedal adjustments are great for the long haul road trips. I have a 1970 Charger R/T show car and I get many compliments on the 1970 when out and about yet I also get a lot of positive comments while driving the 07.

Favorite Features

Agility for such a big car and the comfort/quiet ride for a muscle car. Great balance achieved.

Suggested Improvements

Would have preferred Dodge stuck with the original 2004/2005 Concept Charger. Boy!!... was that a head turner and it took heavy styling queues from the original 68-70 body styles of which the current car does not.

Just Purchased

Review

I just purchased a 2007 Dodge Carger R/T. It rides and drives like a dream. I can set cruise at 75 mph and it feels like I'm floating. The handling could be better I've made the rear end dance around a sharp corner with esp on. I did a rolling start at 15 mph on an onramp by the end of the ramp I was at 105 mph. That 390 ft pound of torque pushes you back in the seat and shoots off the line like a slingshot. I love how quiet it is when you are driving normal, but when you nail it it's like music to my ears with the exhaust note. All in All I am very impressed with the Charger R/T. I would suggest to anyone who love quick cars to buy one.

Favorite Features

The Boston Acoustic stereo. Of course the 5.7 Hemi. The MDS feature was a selling point for me, due to traveling a lot. The "Auto Stick" is a fun feature.

Suggested Improvements

I would have to say handling around corners. Have the the "Auto Stick" feature on the side or below drive that way if the driver bumps it it doesn't go into manual mode unexpectedly.

Review

I bought my 3.5 SE brand new from the dealership after an amazing test drive! It has the basic package but that was my choice. I'm 26 years old, 6'4" high and 300 lbs heavy, I reside in the UAE, where temps reach up to 122 (50 c) in the shade, and humidity up to 100% and my Charger has no trouble handling all that. Had it for a year now and no troubles what so ever... great value for money and the a/c unit is absolutely fantastic, it cools down the interior within minutes Very comfortable, visibility is great despite thick A and C pillars, cos the mirrors cover it all. I've driven lots of cars (Saab, Honda, Mitsubishi, Toyota, BMW) and none of them matches the performance of my 3.6 V6 Charger

Favorite Features

A/T transmission, A/C, Spacious interior,

Suggested Improvements

The plastic interior feels cheap, but it's surprisingly durable, better sound system is always welcome!

Family Muscle Car

Review

I've read the other reviews and can't believe that no one has mentioned that it's hard to see the traffic light because of the low window. Overhead lights hard to see, have to duck down. You have to look at the traffic light to the left, in Chicago. The R/T drives like it just wants to keep going and never stop. It really takes off on the highway. City driving in Chicago is about 16/17 mpg. Haven't taken the care on a trip, but am sure the multiple displacement cylinders would do wonders for mileage.

Favorite Features

The "HEMI" and the ride. Love to show the battery in the trunk! Hard not to sign up for the second year of SIRIUS radio, first year free. Passing is a breeze.

Suggested Improvements

Give the satellite radio for three years, just like the warranty.

Review

I bought a used (rental) SXT 3.5 and It is trouble. I find myself doing 80 mph in 65 mph zones. If complete attention is not paid to the car who knows how fast it'll go. Looking forward to the day I accidentally go over a 100. Steering is very sensitive, needs some getting used to. This is America! we need bigger cup holders

Favorite Features

Quality of build/nice power/beautiful looks

Suggested Improvements

speed sensitive steering, bigger cup holders

Review

Bought the car 2 days ago from a used car lot with 12k miles. The 3.5 has lots of power and impressed co-workers. Only problem is that door swings back to closing position when opened. Otherwise, one of the best cars i've ever bought

Favorite Features

lots of power, nice lines

Suggested Improvements

better radio/stereo

Review

I purchased my 2007 Silver Charger RT 5.7 Hemi in October 2007. It was a Dealer Demo with 5200 miles that already had some very nice modifications that included stainless steel dual exhaust, 20 inch wheels, and tinted windows! My personal modifications included a K&N Cold Air Intake and and an Amsoil synthetic oil system. This is the nicest car that I have ever owned. The handling, comfort, and acceleration are excellent! The leather heated seats are fantastic! I love the MDS system when cruising the interstate which is suppose to save fuel! My mileage is 18.5 city and about 25 on the interstate. Not bad for a 5.7 HEMI! My only recommendation for improvement would be for the blind spots.

Favorite Features

Gas mileage, great acceleration when needed, awesome muscle car looks especially for a four door, smooth ride, leather heated seats, plenty of room for my family! You get a lot of car for the price!

Suggested Improvements

The blind spots could be improved! Other than that, the 2007 Dodge Charger Hemi RT is one of the finest "executive muscle cars" that The Chrysler Corporation has built!

Love my Charger SRT-8

2007 Dodge Charger SRT-8 4dr Sedan (6.1L 8cyl 5A)

Review

Just got my SRT-8, great muscle car that handles and rides so well. Great styling, the HEMI absolutely rocks. The distinctive rumble when you step on the gas, yet ride quality is not sacrificed. The best part is that you get a great muscle car that you can take the family in. My wife loves it as well. Nice features, UConnect, navigation and Sirius radio are wonderful options.

Favorite Features

The HEMI is the best, navigation, sports car that can fit the family

Suggested Improvements

Improve interior

Review

This is a really fun car to drive, the seats are ultra comfy, the gauges are neat looking at night, and the autostick is actually pretty quick shifting. Great car if you dont mind the awful fuel mileage. For the price, fully loaded, you cant get much better than this.

Favorite Features

The sound and the power are both invigorating. The aggressive front end. COLD air conditioner. Very roomy.

Suggested Improvements

MDS like the Charger R/T for improved fuel mileage would be great. The interior is also pretty cheap too.

Review

Our r/t has the road and track option which is the Daytona without graphics, 350 hp, seats heated and same as Daytona with embosed r/t in seat back, very comfortable and secure, sunroof, 20" wheels and tires, front and rear spoilers, trip and info computer, adjustable peddles, I'm 6,2" so this makes the car custom fit the wife 5,7" and me to a tee. Steering wheel moves up and down and in and out as well. Controls well placed. The wife is getting 20 mpg to and from work, at 70 on highway on Cruise about 24 mpg. Not bad for a bullet when wanted. It will tease a heavy foot. Mds is seamless. Low tire warning. Auto stick shift when wanted. All with life time warranty drive train. A+ mopar

Favorite Features

Auto Stick, HEMI,Top of the line Interior, Traction Control on, off switch(tire smoke). Handling Suspension upgrades. Independent rear suspension, 4 wheel large disc brakes. Rear seat backs fold down for unlimited truck length. Ride adjusted for control (anti skid) and height to adjust for weight.

Suggested Improvements

I waited a long time for Mopar to make a nice 4 door (grand baby) rear wheel drive, Real car that fit a big tall Man. The only improvements I can suggest is continue to refine what you have. Its a real winner in my book. Police departments should buy in large quantity. It will make a fine Patrol car.
