    I just picked up my dream car. A 2018 sxt. Yea I know it is only a six cylinder, but it is fast enough for me and handles like a dream. I’ve wanted a challenger since I read about it as a concept car. I have recently found out I have leukemia, so I found one I could afford and got it. Might as well have some fun driving. Looking forward to getting to know some of you all and pick your brains

    Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your SXT.

    All new members should view these fascinating video interviews of the designers of the 2006 Challenger concept car and the 2008 production car. You will really learn a lot.

    Here she is. I was ecstatic to find one with the orange color and black out on it

    That looks awesome. I would never think that would be a 6.

    Congrats and welcome to the forum. I hope you find some enjoyment cruising around in it and it helps get your mind off your health issues for a little while. It works for me.
    SXT's are very popular, money well spent!

    Thanks for the support guys. I don’t know what it feels like being a shark, but I think I do every time I drive my challenger. Now I understand her frustration sometimes when she drives her gt mustang.
