New Member IntroductionsIf you are new to the site please create a thread in here to say hi. We encourage all of the members who are 'lurking' and reading about the Dodge Challenger to post in this section at least once!
I'm a new driver and I really want a challenger ,but I wanna know which model is good for a beginning driver or if this is a nice safe car for a beginner
Welcome to the forum. The Challenger is a good safe car providing you drive carefully and don't get in over your head. Your insurance cost will help you select which model. The V6 will obviously be less than the V8.
Welcome! Test drive if that's an option. Most challenger owners will tell you they like all the models
Agreed with the above post- Insurance will help decide

I went with a V6 Challenger. I bought the car for myself 2 weeks after i got my license. I still get in plenty of trouble. I only wish i had a 6speed (thats my only REAL complaint)
welcome from Illinois...good luck in your decision

Well if your confident in your driving, Sure. It was my first car. Although, Its not the best on Gas, or visibility.
If you plan on driving it only certain months of the year...and since im assuming your young (like myself) avoid it. Since if your dropping 20k+ on a car as a teen only to drive it a couple of months, its probably not the best, all year around like myself isnt bad, but winter caaaaan be sketchy. I avoid bad snow storms because of it, but even with my Pirelli Winter Carving Edge Tires, Ive had some oh shit moments.
But if you ignore the bleh stuff like i did! Yeah id recommend it. its an awesome car, just have to get use to dodges crappy service and our bad blind spots! XD
