So we got a 2014 Dodge Charger SRT8
The current Dodge Charger is one of the most irrefutably great cars that we’ve ever come across. And that’s our opinion by just driving the V6 version from two years ago. This here is the SRT8 version. You know, the one with the 470 hp nuke under the bonnet.
The Charger looks great. Even two years since its launch, the big SRT8 attracts attention from the few bystanders who know what that black nose, pitted bonnet and extra badges mean.
The interior is basically standard Charger, which is no bad thing. There’s class-leading amounts of soft-touch materials in there even in the V6 version, and the SRT8 just adds thick leather sports seats and a flat-bottomed steering wheel.
The only real flaw in the Charger’s design? That huge full-size spare wheel taking up space in that otherwise voluminous boot. This “quirk” has been a trademark of every SRT8 sedan we’ve driven in the past half-decade, and it’s a *facepalm* in an otherwise practical 4-door sports car that even your wife would approve of.
But that one flaw is easily forgiven once you put the pedal to the metal and get going. It’s basically got all the goods to outrun a BMW 550i at half the price. More in the full review.

I actually checked out the Charger . The interior is good , but good ‘for an american car’. I went for a VW CC VR6 instead. Beautifully made , great interiors, AWD, cheaper and under a second slower than the SRT .

Nobody has put a poster of VW CC on his/her wall. The Charger is all about character and history, its been on the top 100 cars…the CC will never ever. On the road, nobody cares about a CC…but they will definitely notice a Charger. So don’t compare a sissy CC with a Charger. If its all about interiors…you will get a cheaper car.

Feroze Bhai. Long time yeah !! I always visit Drive Arabia. But I cant log in to the ride forums page. I still have my FJ cruiser, not planning to get rid of it soon. Point to note is that I am all interested to go for a Challenger this summer. Challenger is the only proper sports car with a proper back seat. Cant afford the SRT model but the SXT version is not a bad pricer !!
