I think the "goodness" of a Dodge Charger is a personal thing. There are some facts that you may want to consider, however. The Charger is comparably very expensive and slow. It's engines aren't advanced enough to compare to a competitor until you opt for the V8 Hemi. It doesn't end there either, as the interior is shamefully cheap with horrible fitment quality and a very serious dash-plastic peeling problem. If the exterior look of a car is all you are considering, there are very few cars that look better than a Charger in my opinion, but if multiple factors are part of your decision, look elsewhere.
 
I'm looking at getting an 06 Dodge Charger... but how is Dodge for cars? I've never owned one.. actually I've only ever owned GM cars and they've gone downhill quality wise...
I'm just thinking maintenence wise... I was told they're not that great... but hey, I drive a GM, it's not that great either. So I'd like something better... I don't want a car thats going to spend half its time at my mechanic's.

And yea I know honda's and toyota's are more relaible and better but I'll never own one, they just don't appeal to me.
 
My Dad Was A Car Sales Man/Manger For Years... I asked Him And He Said"Its A Good Car But If You Want A More Reliable Car And Good Quality You Should Buy A Honda Or A Toyota. They Are Way better On Gas And Always Reliable."
 
american cars don't tend to be very reliable. try a nice Japanese car like a Prius, you wont tell the difference from a Charger and Prius. ;)
 
The LX platform is one of the best vehicles Chrysler has ever produced. And you are right about GM going downhill lately, their quality just keeps going downhill while Chrysler has been making improvements hand over fist.
Here in the dealership we see darn few problems with the Chargers and 300's. Mostly just routine maintenance. And the vehicle owners absolutely love them. I'd own one in a heartbeat if I had a use for that type of vehicle.
Try and find a GM technician who will say that about the Malibu or Impala...ha ha ha..
Buy the Charger, You will Love It !

P.S. shay_d is an idiot!
