2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 Review | A Legend Reborn

The Hemis dominated back in the day and with the debut of the new challenger they sure set the bar high! These 6.1 Hemis are such great machines and the challengers styling has stayed true to its predecessor. This is a perfect example of an American Muscle Car at its FINEST!

[@hakeemsd70m]

There's something special about the 2008-10 Challenger that no other modern muscle car can capture, it's my favorite Challenger along with the 1970 R/T. The later years had more power, cushier interiors, and all that, but none of them can beat the pure presence of the '08 model.

[@User_92020]

Nah too old

[@palmtree9221]

Agreed. It's a strange draw

[@colonelcactus118]

idk… my 2014 is pretty perfect to me

[@TheAceKannon]

@@colonelcactus118same body tho. I think he’s just referring to the pre-facelift models. Which I completely agree, the 2015- models are great too but the hard lines of the 08-14 models are amazing today.

​@@User_92020 you keep commenting too old on these srt8 challenger videos you probably dont even have a car 😂😂😂😂.

I have a chance to get one of these today, thinking of pulling the trigger for sure!

Do it I just did . Got one with a cam and it’s awesome

So did you do it?

I like how the outside looks bu the interior not good

[@dragonn0425]

@@DrabbestGorillaYT Almost did, someone else beat me to it. It was on the market only 1 day and by the time I went for it after work, the salesman told me someone in the morning had purchased it.

[@zoddie]

there is a 2008 right now i found for 20k with 70k miles, red, lowered with some mods done to it. Kind of hard not to wanna get it. These cars drive amazingly well and shift easy. its like driving a lincoln.

[@nflores5433]

The price vs a used hellcat is something you can't beat. But both would be fun to have. Would like a 6.1 and find a used hellcat or demon blower and go forged. 25k+ is a lot more on the monthly payments for just one car. Being able to buy 2 to 3 Mopars with the same $ kinda gets me though the supercharged hemis are tempting.

[@User_92020]

2008 is way too old F that lol

I love these cars unmolested and pure. I'm on my 2nd srt8 jeep. I had and 07 and 4 years ago i got an 08. I have made no mods to either except cold air and i plan to keep it that way.

[@givenchyoverall]

How reliable are they? Ive been wanting one for the longest

[@peopleproblems8109]

thats crazy! ive got car number 12 with 14k miles on it! had it since 08 off the showroom floor

[@Basslightning666]

Good review on a badass muscle car!

[@DriveAndBeDriven]

🔥🔥🔥 Sick car, man!!

[@Squiddy_]

That’s what I’m talking about! Nice car

[@gleetchie8652]

6.1 is the best engine imo that thing can take a beating

[@larrytaylor1974]

They came with 255.20 not 275

[@carstuff4u942]

I had an orange one with a 6-speed. Way cool car, that had power and good brakes. Just too heavy....

[@ramsaybolton7464]

For their weight they handle really well tbh

[@mr.redflag]

Dream car, I want it in red with the black racing stripes I don't care what it has engine i'll get a new one for it, but i'm honna have to wait.

[@redsaint2022]

I’ve found a 2009 challenger srt8 with 189,000 miles for $15000 third party dealer runs great, everything works . Am I stupid to think about it 😅 or is it worth it and have the engine rebuilt? Car looks very well kept, clean Title, original parts, clean inside and out .
