Vehicle Description
2010 Dodge Challenger R/T Hardtop
Save for the Viper, no other car in Chrysler's lineup turns heads
quite like the 2010 Dodge Challenger. This retro styled, rear drive
coupe has impressive on road presence, can be had with a big banger
V-8, and is a comfortable long distance cruiser. The Challenger
will get looks wherever it goes, especially when brightly colored,
thanks to its accurate recreation of the design of the 1970
original. The R/T Classic package adds cool accent stripes on the
sides. There's plenty of room inside for four passengers thanks to
the Challenger's large size and the seats are quite comfortable."

For consignment, a 2010 Dodge Challenger R/T hardtop with a title
verified 35,835 actual miles dressed in orange based TorRed and
wearing those cool accent stripes on the side, as referenced by
Motortrend. The return of the Dodge Challenger was in full boost
mode in 2010 as the well received muscle car revisions proved to be
potent street machines and instantly desirable. With the move
toward electric, (for now), picking up an R/T now might prove to be
a good investment and a fun one to boot!
Exterior
Strongly resembling the 1970 version on steroids, the face of the
car has a bit of a scowl and with this much muscle, you don't want
a smile. Buy a Beetle if you're looking for cute, this car is all
business exasperated by the wrapped flat black hood and twin intake
ducts that teams with the chin spoiler to alter the incoming air
and labeled with the most coveted four letters in the performance
car world, HEMI. The profile is mean and lean also with taped
double ribbon stripes that are punctuated with an RT under the
C-pillar while the car hunkers down on 20-inch Mopar wheels with 45
series tires. Don't get too attached to the tires, you'll likely go
through a set or two. Out back, the lightbar runs the width of the
car with the reverse light in the center, almost as much a styling
feature as a safety one. A smooth orange bumper cover gives way to
squarish dual exhaust and the suggestion of a rear wing advertises
a partnership with Hurst and the R/T name. The bird's eye view
reveals a sunroof and a round antenna. Imperfections include a
number of touched up scratches and a ding near the stiffening
skirt. Beyond that, the paint and graphics are in great shape.
Interior
Robust plastic door panels include a cover which houses the armrest
with easy access to window switches and the door handle, as well as
some storage below. The Slate palette continues with the thick
bucket seats, in black leather and tuck and roll pleated inserts
and the 2+2's in back appear almost as supportive with raised seat
sides and a fold down armrest, all looking fresh. The leather
wrapped steering wheel heads a clean and practical dashboard, four
main gauges with white faces and red needles confront the driver
with all the essential information while air conditioning and the
AM/FM/CD radio that is Bluetooth and XM capable take their place in
the center. That rear wing is no lie, there's a pistol grip Hurst
shifter in the center console, melding the idea of gunslinger and
road warrior meeting in a dark room. WeatherTech mats protect the
low pile black carpet below and the padded headliner above looks to
be in great shape. The trunk is spotless and lined with gray cloth
covered panels for a finished and clean presentation.
Drivetrain
Under the hood and tucked in the clean engine bay is Dodge's
venerable 5.7 liter Hemi V8 putting out 376 horsepower, fuel
injected, and tied to a TR6060 6-speed manual transmission sending
the herd to the back where it finds 3.91 gears in a limited slip
differential. Naturally, power disc brakes are on all four wheels
when it's time to bring those horses back to the stable.
Undercarriage
Some typical and unavoidable surface rust is present but beyond
that, the underside is clean and dry. Duals run in tandem to find a
pair of FlowMaster mufflers before exiting out back. Coil spring
suspension occupies front and rear independent systems.
Drive-Ability
This is not unfamiliar territory for us here at the mall as we've
seen our share and they are brisk sellers. Like most, this one's
been pampered and is super comfortable on the inside which hugs you
like a thick, black blanket and puts a fat steering wheel in your
hand to pilot it. And pilot it we did, right to the test loop where
it performs pretty much as expected. Blistering speed and power,
great straight tracking, and excellent handling. And as a modern
car with low mileage, our list of functional test items all get
check marks. A+. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these
functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot
guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your
purchase.
Talk about bang for the buck. Nearly 400 horsepower, less than
36,000 miles, and a sunroof! Despite some cosmetic changes through
the years, the 2010 still looks fresh and Dodge hit a home run with
this design that is aggressive and muscular but streetable for
daily use. R/T stands for Road/Track but it could easily stand for
"Ready to Transport!" Just let us know where to ship it!
