I know asking this on this Reddit will be biased but I’m in the market for a new car, I can either get a 2023 RT base model or a hybrid Toyota RAV AWD. I love muscle cars and with the challengers going away I reallllllyy want one. I live in San Diego and commute about 40 miles a day. It is hard to justify a V8 gas eater for the same price as a car that gets 40 mpg in this state. My last car was a 2013 ford fusion. I make about 120000 a year and could afford the challenger and the increase in gas and insurance but it is a lot more than the practice option. Any advice would be great!

    I’m going to vote against the Challenger, but only because you’d be getting the RT base.

    The V6 Challenger leaves a LOT to be desired. If you love muscle cars, you will grow to hate the Challenger because you got the model that has no muscle.

    The V8s are slow boats and the V6s are even slower. What you’re getting is a standard car with a Challenger shell. Just the illusion of muscle.

    If you want the Challenger because it’s a muscle car, you will be sorely disappointed with the V6 because it’s heavier and slower than the V6 Camry.
