Price Range: $25,195 to $44,125

Your Price: Ask Us

With an abundance of raw power under the hood and retro-styling, the 2012 Dodge Challenger two-door coupe looks and sounds like the classic muscle cars you know and love.

Steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters for the automatic transmission and an 18-speaker Harmon Kardon stereo are new for 2012. The 2012 Dodge Challenger has three different engines to choose from and competes with the Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang.

Speaking of those engines, it all starts with a standard 305-horsepower, 3.6-liter V-6 engine that generates 268 pounds-feet of torque, followed by the R/T’s 372-horsepower, 5.7-liter V-8 that cranks-out 400 pounds-feet of torque when mated to a five-speed automatic transmission. When paired to an optional six-speed manual, the R/T produces 375 horsepower and 410 pounds-feet of torque. The R/T’s automatic transmission saves fuel with cylinder deactivation, which operates only four cylinders when less power is needed. Fuel estimates vary between 14-18 mpg in the city and 23-27 mpg on the highway depending on which engine you choose.

For rocket-like power, the SRT8 392 and it’s 470-horsepower, 6.4-liter V-8 generates 470 pounds-feet of torque and can accelerate from zero to 60 mph under five seconds and can be paired to a six-speed manual or five-speed automatic with steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters. 

Even though you’ll find the 2012 Dodge Challenger at a modern new car dealership, it might look like you walked onto a lot from the several decades ago. The Challenger features a broad grille, standard 18-inch aluminum wheels, chrome exhaust tips, body-colored door handles, front and rear bumpers, and mirrors. Fog lights, high-intensity-discharge headlights, a sunroof, and 20-inch rims are optional.

Inside of the 2012 Dodge Challenger, you’ll find the retro design in the black headliner and gauge cluster. Although the Challenger looks retro, its tech options are very modern with a power-adjustable driver’s seat, automatic air conditioning, cruise control, remote start (automatic transmission models), CD stereo with auxiliary input jack and cloth upholstery all standard. Leather seating, heated front seats, navigation system, and touch-screen stereo with 30GB hard drive round out the list of available options.

Because you’ll be traveling at the speed of light, it’s nice to know that the 2012 Dodge Challenger has side curtain airbags for front and rear occupants, front-seat side-impact airbags, antilock brakes, active front head restraints and an electronic stability system.

Take the classic look and power of the 70's, add modern technology and you have the powerful 2012 Dodge Challenger.

*Incentive programs are subject to change at any time by the manufacturer.

Secret 1
Consumer Incentives

Zero percent financing, employee discount, cash back, out-the-door price tags...

Most dealers work hard to offer the public competitive prices. These incentives can grab your attention, but they can also obscure the actual terms you're getting on your purchase.

How can you fully understand incentives to get the lowest possible price on your car?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

Secret 2
Finance & Insurance

Most state franchise laws prohibit manufacturers from selling cars directly to the public, so the dealer will be your middleman. But in terms of financing and insurance, you can choose a bank or the dealer directly.

How can you determine what's in your best interest?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

Secret 3
Additional Costs

Destination charges, taxes, license and title fees, advertising fees... When going to a dealership, you must ask for an explanation of any fee you don't understand. But you need to choose your battles wisely. Your local car dealer may have taken a loss or slim profit along the way, and your fighting over something like a doc fee when the deal is nearly wrapped up may be counterproductive.

In any case, there are many fees and charges in the sale process: some inevitable, others questionable. How do you tell them apart?

Secret 4
Trade-in Value

If you currently own a car, it probably represents profit. The question is, whose profit will it be?

With few exceptions, you'll get the most money for your used car by selling it privately. That's because dealers pay wholesale prices — not retail prices — for used cars, and they sell them at retail.

Your current car's value can be used to lower the price on your new car. However, most people underestimate their used car's value when going to a dealership. How can you maximize your value?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

Secret 5
Dealer Holdback

The car manufacturer holds back a fraction of the price of all vehicles the dealership sells. Then, it returns the money to the dealership, usually on a quarterly basis.

Dealer holdback began its life as a safety net that ensured the manufacturers would have a security deposit of sorts if a dealership missed payments, and the dealerships would have money on hand to cover overhead costs when the holdback was returned.

How can you take advantage of dealer holdbacks to get the bottom line price?

Secret 6
Dealer Incentives

Unlike consumer incentives, dealer incentives are factory-to-dealer incentives that reduce the dealer's true cost to buy the vehicle from the factory to below invoice.

Manufacturers offer these incentives on a regional basis to generate sales on specific models. These incentives are sometimes referred to as "spiffs," and they can touch off competition among dealers to move slower-selling stock.

For instance, a dealer incentive may kick in when a certain sales target is reached, with each subsequent sale resulting in a higher factory-to-dealer rebate. How can you benefit from that?
