Non-Owner With A Dilemma

TypeOne

You know, seems like a typical response one would get from the Chrysler forum.

I personally don't like the Challengers... I'd never own one. Seems too expensive for something made so cheaply. I don't care for nostalgia, or old school Americana.

I love my Z, I enjoy driving it, I enjoy modding it, I enjoy cleaning it... The Z community is great, most people are helpful and welcoming.

If I bought my Z and had the same problems that you have with your SRT8, I'd probably be thinking about trading it in too.

When you say there was a lack of trim that suited you... what do you mean by that?

**EDIT**

Just noticed you're from BR! It'd be nice to have another Z rolling around!

Kind of stating the obvious but muscle cars and sports cars really are two very different things, even though the general American public lumps them together. I am confident in saying the Z is of higher build and materials quality than the Challenger but that may not be enough for you if a spots car is not your thing.

That being said, I absolutely love my Roadster. The road noise is not that bad though I understand the Coupes have more problems with road debris noise from the wheel wells than the Roadsters do. As a previous owner of 2 Miatas my Z is smooth and quiet in comparison. And nothing compares to finding a twisty patch of road. It would be better still if I had some driving training and felt comfortable pushing the car closer to it's limits.

In the end if you need a back seat, large trunk and smoother ride you will probably be unhappy with the Z after the newness wares off. If you really don't need the larger car and want something fun to drive then I think you would love the Z, loud or not.
