Replying to: ziapiper (Feb 27, 2009 3:26 pm) I've seen that in the manual as well. I haven't heard how it does on 89 or 87. Does anyone else know about that?   I've been looking for deals on Challengers and the best I've found was $1500 off of MSRP on a base SE with sunroof.   Has anyone else done better? What's the average for this super car? I can't believe how tough it is to get a Challenger. Replies to this message: mikefm58 (Apr 29, 2009 6:19 am) mikefm58 (Apr 29, 2009 6:22 am)

Replying to: sabre52270 (Apr 29, 2009 4:53 am) I've read differing opinions, but I think it's 89 octane in the R/T auto and 91 octane in the R/T manual. But many have posted the 87 works fine in either, not on this forum but on another one. If anyone is interested in the link, shoot me an email, the addy is in my public profile.

Replying to: sabre52270 (Apr 29, 2009 4:53 am) And here's the information quoted from the owner's manual.   The 3.5L and 5.7L engines (with automatic transmission) are designed to meet all emissions regulations and provide satisfactory fuel economy and performance when using high-quality unleaded gasoline having an octane range of 87 to 89. The manufacturer recommends the use of 89 octane for optimum performance. The use of premium gasoline is not recommended, as it will not provide any benefit over regular gasoline in these engines.

#48 of 48 Congrats Ziapiper! by chuckfromli Aug 11, 2009 (5:03 pm)
Congrats on getting the car you want. Wouldn't it be cool if you had bought a 1970 and kept it all these years?   Re: The young chicks. I had a '97 Trans Am convertible in red with the WS 6 package and an aftermarket exhaust. It seems the engine sound makes their ovaries vibrate and the poor things are defenseless!   Anyone have an update on production of 2010 Challengers?
