Disapointed
Today I drove a Charger V6 3.5 with the hopes of getting a sorta feel for the V6 Challenger. I felt a big lack of "GO" power. Yes I know it is rear wheel drive and some power is lost between the pedel and the wheels, it felt like a sled. Im so disappointed I have my heart set on a 2009 V6 Challenger which I understand as per the rumors, 3.5 V6 manual, is built on a Charger. HMMM I really dont know what to think now, if I could buy a V8 I would.
Then yes I drove a Mustang V6 4.0 with the performance package, yes it has the go power I like.
Then, home to start a comparison sheet I found that my grand am has a smaller engine but it is lighter and front wheel drive so it feels faster, and the over all body size and weight is smaller. The Mustang body size and weight similar to the Grand Am but much faster of course.
I think the Challenger will be too slow in a V6.
