Proud papa here.
My youngest daughter is busting her butt staying on the dean's list in college and working a busy job on the side.
She been saving her money and just bought her first car and although I tried to talk her into something more...practical.... the plum crazy Mopar urge was just too strong.
She is so very proud of her new plum crazy R/T Challenger.
Now we have 3 purple R/T Challenger....the insanity has to end. :drunk:
Time for grandpa to sell his Challenger and have his baby girl chauffeur him around in her's :thinking:
It's all your fault, You raised her right!!! :pokeeye:
Wow, that's a great FIRST car :twothumbsup: Is it a V6 or Hemi ? My son was finding a huge difference in insurance cost for young people...

Is it a V6 or Hemi ?
The wheels are telling me it's an R/T, so it has the 5.7 Hemi.
What a great car for a deserving daughter ! :veryexcited:
Yea, he mentioned R/T so I figured a HEMI, but around here...a young kid can forget about insuring it :bigmoney: :looney: it would cost more then the car.
Yes it's an R/T classic with the 5.7 Hemi engine and automatic transmission.
The original owner removed the R/T stripes, I kind of like it without them.
Real nice car, drives excellent, 43k miles, lots options and leather.
The 5.7 actually has quite a bit of power and the car scoots pretty good which does scare me a bit being a dad.
I didn't price insurance on a V6 but we added the car to our family policy and it was $280 for 6 months full coverage, nobody in our family has any tickets or accidents.
We will drop the insurance to comprehensive when we store it for the winter.
