He Test-Drove Camaro and Mustang, but Chose Challenger

Joe Wilson from Ohio tells the story about his 2013 Dodge Challenger SXT and shares how he chose Challenger after test-driving Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro.

The car is a 2013 Dodge Challenger SXT plus 6 cylinder w with sunroof and 2 tone leather seats. It is bright white with red and black leather interior. I have had This Dodge Challenger since October of 2012. It's nickname is "White Lightning."

This performance car is my daily driver, but I do have a winter car for the snow (it is Ohio after all). I looked at several models and test drove the Camaro and Mustang before deciding on the Challenger.

My son was pushing for the Chevy Camaro, but once he drove the Challenger he became a believer.

I had the stripes painted on to match the interior. I wanted the look be unique as I had not seen many cars with the large stripes all the way back combined with the offsetting black pinstripes. I plan on other modifications as time and money permit.

Next will be rims in matching colors and halo lights.

This vehicle was purchased from Medina Auto Mall in Medina, OH. Great dealer, they found the car in Tennessee and had it shipped. Everything about the shipment was without any hassles and I got the lifetime warranty. I enjoyed taking this Dodge Challenger to some local car shows and cruise ins last year and plan to continue. It is a blast to drive and looks great.

"Performance car" and "6 cylinder" don't belong in the same description. For the life of me, I can't understand why people choose V6 motors over a V8, only to then waste extra money on aftermarket parts. It seems so counterintuitive, but whatever. It's your money, Joe. I just hope those car show guys are laughing WITH you, instead of the alternative.
