I just got the 2008 dodge challenger for my 16th birthday, and it is remarkable. I do however have a concern. While i was testing out the 0-60 computer timer, it registered as a 4.32. I am just wondering if you think there is something wrong with this, or if its actually possible. The picture is blurry, because of the low light. Yes, the car is still moving. i took the picture because i was incredibly excited, while my friend controlled the wheel.

Did you say 16th birthday? Hope you had an adult in the car with you.

Just throwing this out there, but could it of been placed in KPH and not MPH. I don't even know if they can be placed in KPH. But just a thought. Sweet to be 16 and own a Challenger Be careful and put all your effort these first years of driving to do it by the book. That way you put down a good foundation for skilled driving. All you learned to do in DE should be practiced so it becomes habit. Good luck and happy motoring.

Good job and stay safe these things are beast not to be toyed with. I don't want to read here that you are #3 lost.

thanks for the support from both of you guys.

It can be put in metric, but it wasn't that day

I'm sorry, no kid 16 yrs old should have a car that powerful-spells trouble! Respect that Hemi son thats all I can say.

Welcome to the forum, I guess I shouldn't ask what kind of car you would like when you grow up...you already have it.....enjoy, but be safe out there.....

When I was 16 I had a Chevelle SS 396. Frankly I did a lot of stupid stuff. Now I am 47 and I don't do a lot of stupid stuff with the car. But I can't get over owning V8 and rear wheel drive.

I hear you..been there, done that...I had a 1970 RT/SE, triple black 440 Challenger during my senior year in high school...spent more seat time behind the wheel of that car than I did in class...got my first Comp (racing) speeding ticket in that car (it was fast, but looked even faster and the police loved to follow me around)...other "interesting" "fun" times all came about due to low age and high horsepower riding in a nice looking car.....somehow I survived....and wouldn't have changed a thing!!! And your are right, there is nothing like owning a rear wheel drive V8.......
