Welcome back to another Supercar review, where today we will go in depth with two American muscle cars. The Mustang, and the Charger pair that leaves the streets of Buffalo echoing from their exhausts. I would like to divide this review up in three different parts for each car starting with the 2016 SXT Charger. Without further to do, let's dive right in!!!
Throughout this part of the review, we will be explaining the Dodge Charger SXT. Tristans love for the Dodge Charger started when he was around the age of ten, when his mother drove one as a rental car. Almost instantly he fell in love with the sounds of the V8, and it became his mission to purchase one. After 11 years of hard work, he was finally able to pick one up. His Charger is a 3.6 litre V6 producing about 292 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. The Charger can do the 0-60 dash in just over 6.3 seconds, and can sprint the quarter mile in just around 14.8 seconds. Tristan went with the V6 Charger because we wanted something more reliable, and the AWD that helps in the winter. This Charger plans on getting some major updates soon. One of the biggest is the rims. He plans on getting a set of the Rohanna rims (20x10) which have a chance to be Illusion Purple, replacing the Black stock rims. The mods already on the Charger are the Hellcat style spoiler, and the Vicrez add on which gives this Charger more mean of a look. Other future customizations include a Afe cold air intake, APR front spoiler, a Vicrez Hellcat style bumper, Vicrez diffuser with a rain light, a solo performance exhaust (Eventually turning into a Titanium exhaust), and a Carbon Fiber Hellcat hood and trunk. Each one of these items makes the Charger exactly how Tristan hopes. But wait! This isn't all! He also plans on interior upgrades such as a starlight headliner, Carbon Fiber Vicrez steering wheel, and Red door panel inserts. By far one of the coolest pending features is the Camouflage wrap he plans on doing. Not to mention, the Charger works closely with The Lab of North America located in Orchard park where they did a great job on the window tints of the Charger. Tristan is also part of the 716 Classified, and WNYHRCCC car clubs around WNY. So the next time that you go to the local Cars and Coffee, look out for a Camo wrapped V6 monster!!!
Now, we can move on to the 2003 Mustang GT. Nicks love for the early 2000’s Mustang started when he was a kid. At 5 years old, his mother purchased a Blue 2003 Mustang convertible, and since then, he was in love with them. After years of grinding, he was finally able to purchase his first dream car. A Black 2003 Mustang GT convertible. His Mustang was a 4.6 L V8 producing about 260 horsepower and 302 lb-ft of torque. It could do the 0-60 dash in about 5.8 seconds and blast through a quarter mile in just 16 seconds traveling 104 mph. Back in 2003, the Mustang dominated the Ford assembly line, and 153,367 were made, costing $23,940 for the convertible version. This Mustang has been through a lot of major updates including the paint. Back when Nick bought this Mustang, it was in gloss black, and it is now in Plum Crazy Purple (You can see these on Dodges and Jeeps). In total, the process of the body work, and the paint took two weeks, and makes this incredible car look even better. Other than the paint, this mustang has also had a straight pipe exhaust, cold air intake, Koni lowering springs, terminator style front bumper, short throw shifter, and Racing seats as well. Let me tell you first hand, that exhaust is crazy. The couple of revs that he gave, echoed throughout my soul, and left my ears ringing for hours (It even shot a flame!!!). This Mustang also plans to get a lot done with it including the additions of a supercharger, new rims (not decided yet), and 3.73 gears for the rear end. Nick is in the 716 Classified car club as well, where they hold cruises and meet with a few more people. With all of these pending features, this Mustang has the chance to be one of the coolest, best sounding American cars in Buffalo. From the crazy Purple paint, to the straight piped exhaust, this 2003 Mustang GT is one crazy car for the price. So the next time you see a Purple 2003 Mustang GT, feel free to start up a chat with Nick, and he will show you just how loud that straight piped exhaust really is.
As you can see, Buffalo is home to a whole lot of American cars like these two. These cars are both sleepers. The are overlooked a lot, but appreciated by the owner. There is a lot of hate towards these cars such as people saying that their cheap, or ugly. There are no parents money involved. Tristan and Nick work so hard so they could have cars like this, and just because its not a 100k Corvette or Ferrari, you shouldn't look at these cars different.
Thank you for reading this, and I am excited to hear what you guys have to think.
