I love my charger, if you are a mopar fan look into one. There peppy and have a ton of room, I looked at alot of cars before I made my decision to get it, at the end it was between an evo,the charger and the new awd saab that has 280hp and 290ish torque.
Just thought I would throw my 2 cents out there.

i absolutely love it, very comfortable, smooth ride, good build quality. only downside is dealing with hyatt infiniti, horrible service department...

i think in a few years i will pick up a 335...

I'm going to fuking shoot my insurance broker They just cost me an NSF fee and will end up costing me another one within the next week So........here's wat happened, which is a FAIL on their part, when i got the Cobalt and called to have my insurance swapped over i was talking about all the details how much my payments will be, when the next payment will be and how does that work with having swapped insurance partway thru my insurance term ect ect. The final response i got which i double and tripple checked back with the lady from the insurance broker was that Oct's payment would remain the same as previous months and Nov, Dec, Jan, Feb would be a little extra to adjust for the late change of insurance during this months term, basically it's 5 months of payments in 4 months and since that was the only way it was going to work i agreed to it and went on my merry way..........today $98.xx was supposed to come out as per the insurance broker as per my previous months payments on my other car.....$306.xx came out today, i had enough in there for 1 tank of gas till payday and $100 for insurance......now i have nothing i even have a negative balance really really pissed off at my insurance broker, the line "Is Wayne Brady gunna have to choke a bitch!?!" comes to mind alot!!!

i actually have heard that from a few others as well who are happy with TD insurance, that's straight thru TD bank correct? The only reason i'm with rockyford is because they gave me a huge break from wat i paying with statefarm, i really haven't shopped around much.

Try Canada direct Insurance. I was paying twice what they quoted to another insurance broker who fucked up all the time.

You can go online and get a free insurance quote after answering the basic questions. I pay less than $1000 a year for full coverage including full replacement value if the car is written off.

http://www.canadiandirect.com/Auto/Auto.aspx

Worth a look and the cheepest I found after looking into quite a few companies. I have never had a problem in the three years I have been with them.

Cheers

Well you are insuring a FORD, and we all know they are not worth much so that is probably why the insurance is lower.

LOL j/k bro!
