Congrats and sweet, sweet, sweet your going to be smoking everyone in your town lol. ANd I’m like you ain’t excited about the WB Charger. I really like the lines better in the non WB Charger, The WB Challenger just sticks to the road more than your Charger. Be prepared fir the slingshot effect versus the bust loose feel in your Charger. I’d picked that color up should have mine been that color as well. I’m on the silver and light colors now and just picked this up last night for my daughter. And she’s super excited to learn how to drive a manual.

What’s your dr
Sorry if I missed it, but is this one of the Koon's REs?
No looks like his local or close by dealer. I live near Koons and that ain’t Koons.

Did I mention I got 16,500 off the RedEye? Sticker was 80K Haha 👍 (you do the math) that’s what I call a slam dunk. I paid 7-8k less for this WB RedEye than I paid for my Charger after tax. I couldn’t pass this opportunity up. Not only is the car awesome. I got a great deal. These deals are out there now guys! 19’ Hellcats at Chapman on the lot (Great place to buy a car BTW in Horsham PA.. Especially Hellcats they have 40 on the lot the guy said!) a few are sitting at 55K! Atm The non WB 20s are 5k-6k more than I bought this car! All about making a little compromise to secure your deal! The houndstooth and lack of options plus the big discount from dealer and power dollars kept this RedEye WB price down to an affordable level and made this purchase actually make a lot of sense. Again so happy! Thought I’d share that piece of info! With the community. Thanks for all the support/feedback and insight guys. Truly appreciated, I feel so blessed.

Thanks TK your kind words are much appreciated. I’ll just say some observations I’ve made between the two vehicles. I got 117 miles on the challenger now so I was able to stretch the rpm between 3-5 k a little bit keeping it under 75mph. With the 3.09 This thing pulls hard down low. The pedal Feels as fast as the charger hellcat at 2/3 -3/4 throttle. I haven’t gone past 3/4 yet but boy I’m excited to pass 300miles and explore a bit more..

The B woody intake so far I think sings whine better at lower rpm than the challenger. Plus it bleeds the sound out the heat extractors. With the windows down in the charger with the B Woody you can really precisely hear the supercharger under load. Again I haven’t even put the RE in track mode or gotten much pedal room yet. I’m sure this thing will be a completely wild animal on the right road In all track setting after I pass proper break in and oil change. So excited!

The challenger RE front end takes smaller bumps and dips in the road smoother than the Charger HC. The feedback in the charger on hydraulic steering is superior. In the RE it’s a little more dead.. but it’s actually makes the ride more comfortable sometimes over bumps because your not feeling those little vibrations as much. The steering is much looser in the charger. Sport steering is much firmer than the Charger in the RE. I’d say somewhere between the RE Sport steering and Street is the Charger but with more road feel and feedback. The 305 fronts on the challenger want to tram line a lot. My 285 fronts on the charger you don’t notice that much. The challenger feels more planted to the ground. The challenger supension in street mode feels like sport suspension in the Charger. Sport suspension in the challenger feels like Track suspension in the Charger. But I still like how the handling feels in my charger going up hills and around curves.. so far.. I just trust it more.. know exactly what that car wants to do. Man that challenger is special though. It feels like a special car when you drive it. The charger feels special in a different way because it’s a 4 door sedan that’s just amazing looking in its own right and aggressively styled. This challenger is a show stopper though. It’s bold, it’s badass, It’s everything they say it is and then some haha. Both vehicles are outstanding in there own rights while having there own unique driving experience. And outward/inside appearance. Over a long drive.. Charger all day with the laguna leather. But this RE.. just Wow! Definitely more smiles per miles. can’t wait to put a few more miles on her later!
