We drove the first and last Dodge Challenger to see how it evolved into what it is now… and to see why Dodge is finally putting it to rest.
Huge thanks to @jaylenosgarage for letting us drive his 1970 Challenger!

  • As a boy from Austria I didn't have much knowledge or appreciation for American muscle. I was all up in the Japanese import mindset. And then I saw the R/T Challenger in Need for Speed Carbon. And I fell in love. The swooping lines, the friendly face, the elegant shape all just spoke to me. 17 years later the classic challenger is still my favourite American muscle car and I'll never get the chance to drive one. And now it's gone. Rest in peace, legend.

    • Once the car stops meeting ever increasing emissions standards, it'll become illegal to register and inspect them. Which means anytime you see one doing burnout competitions and drag races, you know it's only a few months away from being impounded and likely crushed.

The cars generally only need to meet the emissions requirements of when they were originally released, not modern standards. It also isn't difficult to register your car in another county that doesn't have emissions, or to add a catalytic converter.

Throws you back in the seat like you are pulling huge G and you look down and you are barely vreaking 30. Certain measured in smiles per gallon. I'd get far more smiles than I would miles.

    • Hey bro, I almost bought the 09' SRT8 as well but after test driving a 6 speed manual 2012 ZL1, it was just the clear answer for me my bro. Nothing against challenger but ZL1 Camaro just looks more muscular and more engaging to drive. Again no offense. I'm a Mopar guy but my friend urged me to drive a ZL1 before settling on SRT8. I also test drove a hellcat, it felt a bit quicker in a straight line but it honestly felt too damn heavy on it's toes man. I just couldn't have fun with it under normal day to day driving whereas the Camaro just feels like a nimble giant. If that makes sense. The old Camaro just has a road presence that isn't matched. Either way, we both have muscle cars and for me, it's mopar or no car except ZL1
