Driving a Dodge Charger rental while my car is getting repaired, my observations so far compared to the G70.

Does it come with a wife beater t shirt, a mullet wig, and a six pack of Coors?

No, did your Genesis come with an oriental wig, and terrible matching clothes and cheesy sunglasses?

Just the cheesy sunglasses. Was I supposed to get the other stuffs? Dammit I missed out!

Damnit, my 19 Ram 1500 didn't come with the Coors light. It's still quieter inside at 70 than an S class. Or most Genesis's. My gv80 and the Ram I own are about sixes. At least the ram has more cup holders

Are you sure you didn't get the terrible clothing?

I own both....... 2021 G70 Sport 3.3 RWD and a 2020 Charger ScatPack Widebody. I love them both and its a challenge on some days to decide which I want to drive....View attachment 41257View attachment 41258

Nice whips

I recently bought a fully loaded 3.3t G70 and I'm looking to sell my Charger Scat-Pack (392 motor). The Charger wasn't a bad car at all. HUGE compared to the G70. So it was great when my kids were still around. It's a 2016 but still had huge Brembo's, adaptive cruise control, heated and ventilated seats, heated steering wheel, auto brights, lane assist...pretty much most of what you would want. It was a fun car and a monster in a straight line....and that exhaust note! If anything it was sometimes too loud.

That being said I prefer a vehicle that is fast in a straight line.....AND around curves!

What stupidity are you trying to imply? The wife beater, mullet wig and Coors go along with Camaro owners. I'd never own that trash.

Thank you! We enjoy them both. My gf and I swap them every couple weeks. If ya drive the Charger gently it actually gets better gas mileage as well. I have a company car as well so we are taking turns letting one of them sit for a few days at a time. I'm letting General Electric pay for the gas

I've owned a V8 since I was 18 and anytime I gave it up within months I was back in another one. Those were all Mustangs/Ford F-150. I can't stand Chevrolets. Cheap ass looking interiors. The Charger I love the look, sound and the interior.

My G70 clicked off every box I had for an upscale classy looking car that was also quick. Its a toss up which one to drive!!!

Those are happy problems.

Interesting. I'm definitely getting better mileage with my G70 then I ever did with my 392. Driving them the same, which is not super hard but occasionally getting on it. I would usually average 17-18 mpg mixed in my Charger, and 21-22mpg with the G70. Straight freeway trips will yield better with both - but the 392 was terrible around town. Just idling at a red light I'd see the gas gauge go down LOL

I averaged about the same in my 392 Charger as the G70. I averaged 23mpg in my 392...I'm currently averaging 24 in my 3.3t G70. But, I do a lot of highway driving. Charger got 25-26 at 80 mph on the highway. G70 is getting 26 at 80 mph

I can see that. On the highway the 392 is not bad with the MDS - but around town it's terrible! The G70 definitely does better around town.

Owned by them, I believe.
