Used Car of the Day: 2010 Dodge Challenger R/T

used car of the day 2010 dodge challenger r t

We haven't featured too many Dodge Challengers -- if we've featured any at all -- in this slot. So, today, we've got a nice 2010 Dodge Challenger R/T for you.

It has 151,000 miles and an automatic transmission, so I can already hear you "save the manuals" types getting annoyed. But if you can live with just two pedals, you'll get a car that still has a 5.7-liter V8.

There are flaws such as fading paint and an inoperative radio screen. The car does have new cams and lifters and is lowered.

Give it a look here -- the seller is in Arizona and asking $12,500.

Tim Healey

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Nah. These are popular enough that unless you want a project or a quasi-rat rod daily, plenty of less worn examples are out there. You'll likely pay more, but paint (continuous exposure to southwestern sun will kill paint beyond a detailer's ability to save) and electronics aren't cheap if you can't do them yourself or have a reputable hookup. And as others have pointed out, the refresh cars really hone the formula with their interior and mechanical improvements.

Way too many variables:
- insurance would be Sky High
- great candidate to disappear in a down town parking garage
- has it been stolen and now returned to owner after one hell of a joy ride
- unknown on how modifications done (shade tree or pro)
- any prior accidents
- why does the owner want to get rid of it (impending explosion of transmission?)
- don't like the idea its been slammed (British vernacular for lowered)
- does the A/C really work??
The list goes on and on...

Bd2 Would be sweet on a Telluride.
Luke42 When will they release a Gladiator 4xe?I don’t care what color it is, but I do care about being able to plug it in.
Bd2 As I have posited here numerous times; the Hyundai Pony Coupe of 1974 was the most influential sports and, later on, supercar template. This Toyota is a prime example of Hyundai's primal influence upon the design industry. Just look at the years, 1976 > 1974, so the numbers bear Hyundai out and this Toyota is the copy.
MaintenanceCosts Two of my four cars currently have tires that have remaining tread life but 2017 date codes. Time for a tire-stravaganza pretty soon.
Lorenzo I'd actually buy another Ford, if they'd bring back the butternut-squash color. Well, they actually called it sea foam green, but some cars had more green than others, and my 1968 Mercury Montego MX was one of the more-yellow, less-green models. The police always wrote 'yellow' on the ticket.
