Vehicle Description
2010 Dodge Challenger SRT 8
"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
V8, 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. There's plenty of room inside for four passengers thanks
to the Challenger's large size and the seats are quite
comfortable." Thx to MotorTrend
For consignment, a 2010 Dodge Challenger SRT 8 hardtop with a title
verified 39,970 actual miles dressed in Blue Pearl. 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 SRT 8 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 highlighted by the 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 double ribbon stripes which give
way to the 6.1 HEMI emblem on the hood bulge, while the car hunkers
down on 20-inch Alcoa forged SRT wheels with 45 series tires with
an early 2022 date code. 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 blue bumper
cover gives way to squarish dual exhaust and an understated rear
spoiler advertises a partnership with Hurst and wears the coveted
SRT 8 logo. Imperfections include a number of touched up scratches
and a scuff. Beyond that, the paint, trim, and graphics are in
great shape.
Interior
Robust plastic door panels include suede inserts and an armrest
with easy access to window switches and the door handle, as well as
some storage below. The Dark Slate palette continues with the thick
bucket seats, in black leather, suede inserts, and a body blue
stripe under the SRT logo, while the matching 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
leads 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 with
navigation plus Bluetooth and XM capability take their place in the
center. That rear wing emblem is no lie, there's a cue ball topped
Hurst shifter in the center console wearing a black leather boot.
Low pile black carpet below and the padded headliner above look 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 6.1 liter Hemi V8 putting out 425 horsepower, fuel
injected, and tied to a TR6060 6-speed manual transmission sending
the herd to the back where it finds 3.92 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 along with
usage patina, but beyond that, the underside is clean and dry.
Duals run in tandem to find a pair of original equipment mufflers
before exiting out back. The resonators have been removed. Coil
spring suspension with lowering springs occupy the front and a
5-link populates the rear independent suspension.
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. It also roars just
a tad louder than your average SRT. And as a modern car with low
mileage, our list of functional test items all get check marks and
scores 100. 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. More than 400 horsepower, less than
40,000 miles, and a solid roof! 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. SRT stands for Street and Race Technology but it
could easily stand for Ship it Right To me! Just let us know where
to send the transporter.
