Bonus time!  Here are 40 extra photos of the car that didn’t make it into our glowing review of the Challenger last week.  Enjoy!  We certainly did.  =] 2016 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack HD Road Test Review – 2016 Dodge CHALLENGER R/T Scat Pack
What is the best part of driving a near-500-horsepower car every day? Is it the thunderclap of this 6.4-liter V8 on startup that makes you feel as powerful as Thor? Â Or might it be the savage ingear power on the highway? Or is it the sheer bloodlust feeling of all that HEMI power beneath you?
