2006 Dodge Charger R/T, LOADED
A friend recently wrote a poem about my car ...
roaring horsepowers
looking like a lovely dream

DONE! Added Diabo 91 Oct CAI tune on the weekend. Also smoked out my front parking lights with VHT Nightshades translucent paint. Looks hot.
SOON TO COME! DDS disabler, 170 thermostat - should be done by May 30th.
I factory-ordered my R/T with all the goodies except for the navigation system. (Now I wish I had!) It's got the electronics convenience package, Boston Acoustic sounds system, Road and Track performance group, rear seat DVD system, and power sunroof, to name just a few.
I added 20% tint on the three back windows. I think I want to add a lighter tint to the fronts, though.
New headlights and tail lamps a few months ago. I ordered them from slickcar.com. Some problems with an LED in one headlight - sometimes on, sometimes off. Now one bank of LEDs on a tail light is out. I don't recommend these, I'm afraid.
I wish the Charger came with a standard transmission, but the optional stick shift works OK when a bit of extra power is needed. (Especially with the Diablo tune!)
I got the RT instead of the SRT because I don't like the spoiler on the SRT. MDS is also great, which isn't available on the 6.1. There is a 20% tint on the three back windows.
The Borla exhaust is LOUD and AWESOME. I checked out several and am glad I went with the Borla. Check out those 5" pipes!!!
Some have called it the "Bat Mobile" ... I just call it a wicked ride.
Great article about the R/T... Car and Driver Magazine article
