2010 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
4-speed automatic RWD		 This car was built before 12/31/2009 so after my family/friends discount (a friend gave me) I also received a $3500 instant rebate.
2009 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
4-speed automatic RWD		 A lot more car for a little more money - 3.5L V6 costs just a bit more than the regular 2.4,2.5L V4s.
2008 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
4-speed automatic RWD		 Charger with 250-horse v6 priced the same as 4-cylinder ford fusion, chevy malibu, or toyota corolla. It is a much better car for the price.
2006 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 Reasonable price, good discounts, excellent used car buy because of high depreciation.
