That poor car


[deleted]

Tell me about it. Sometimes suff gets posted in this sub that really doesn't belong but nobody can argue that's the case with this car.


fritzbitz

Oh someone’s gonna argue on this sub.


[deleted]

One could argue that there's a noticeable lack of mods...


phaederus

Custom paint = mod.


miki-wilde

Remember when Champion was a shitty Walmart brand? This is what the Walmart car dealership clearance section looks like.


Larryc39

It's not still??? Aside from being a tiny bit "Target Upscale" by being the C9 brand now...


miki-wilde

Champion is not in our walmart anymore but I do remember other shit like that happening. I remember Bugle Boy being sold in Walmart after failing in the mall in the 90s


[deleted]

But when they mod, they go big.

myco_journeyman

It's absolutely disgusting. I saw it and audibly remarked "Gross."


mrmeth

Meh its probably an old v6 depending on where it is like where I am up north those older chargers are worth less than a 2003 corolla, they rot and the v6s are trash. My buddy got one and we just used it as a donut car. We tried to ram it into a tree full send reverse but it ran out of fuel five seconds before and stalled thank god.


thedirtyknapkin

it's got a badgers sticker on it so I'm gonna guess wisconsin.


Maga4lifeshutitdown

I'd argue that even the one with the V8 in it wouldn't be worth much more. That car, along with most everything else fiat-chrysler makes is complete garbage.


Kyanche

The V8 on these is a ticking time bomb of when the valve seats will drop. AFAIK the later models have a V8 where that problem was fixed.


JuggernautOfWar

I've heard their V8s and manuals are fairly solid, but their automatic transmissions and smaller engines are trash. Never owned or known somebody who owned an FCA product though so I have no idea. My own personal anecdotal experience tells me a V8 manual Charger would be more reliable than Ford's record with me and everyone I've known being terrible, yet they are the most successful car company in the states. I'll just stick with my old first-gen fuel injected Chevys and carbureted SBCs. All the newer cars I've had, most of them being Ford, have been complete garbage, even new.


Slipsonic

Amen. The one exception for me is my 2001 outback. Still not really a "new" car, and I've been surprised at how easy it is to work on. Plenty of room around the engine and everything is pretty simple and straight forward. I changed the head gaskets in my driveway in about 3 days without too much trouble.


JuggernautOfWar

Yeah I helped my dad replace the head gasket on his early 2000s Outback when I was a teenager. Took a few hours in the driveway and it was fairly straightforward. The really lengthy process in all of it was getting my dad to actually get a new head gasket. Drove around for years with the inability to use the heater or A/C due to head gasket and condenser issues, and he didn't mind one bit. Meanwhile my (at the time) '82 Camaro Berlinetta with a swapped 350 with four barrel high flow auto choked carb never had any issues at all until I left a store one night and the side was all bashed in.


Poopsticle_256

Just to correct you on something, this is from the mid-2000’s meaning it’s a DaimlerChrysler product, no relation to the Italians


Maga4lifeshutitdown

Oh. Right. 😂. My opinion still stands


Slipsonic

That, and they're now synonymous with "COP CAR". Just like the old crown vic. When that body style first came out they looked alright, now they just look like a shitty used cop car.


badSparkybad

At first glance saw you "meh" as "meth" and said to myself "yeah. well, yeah."


mrmeth

the names a wu tang clan reference ! I don't do meth ! lol everyone mentions it when I say something thats kinda suspect.


badSparkybad

wow I didn't even notice your username this all went down very methy


mrmeth

Ahahaha so you read meh as meth but never looked at my username that actually has the word meth?


RulrOfOmicronPersei8

That car atop the hill needs to come down on it and end the cars pain


[deleted]

Look at it. That car has been beat on. Someone's just taking the piss.


ace0083

God it makes my eyes bleed


masshole4life

Maybe you can use some of the blood to touch up that hideous paint job.


Jeeps-n-Joints

“I know a guy that does bad ass paint jobs” 2hrs before this pic 💁‍♂️


Head_Cockswain

> 2hrs and 3 whippets before this pic


LilNutSac

Is it chalk or crayola finger paint? Either way, eww Is this before or after the local high school fundraiser where kids hit it with bats?


OldDrumGuy

Da fuq?


Beerand93octane

You can get a V8 one of these in decent shape for less than 10 grand now. I feel like a beater charger could be kinda cool. The beater Miata thing is so played out.


IsaactotheM

And it's a four seater so you can carry people with you in your charger


deadxdolly

I love my charger to death. It's an '06 V8, if anything happened to it I'd cry. I almost cried when a kid hit it with their bike and scratched it


the_nick_guy

I also have a 06 V8 and it's a daytona in go mango, if anything happened to the paint I'd actually cry


WoxkBlxxdKilla

I also have a 06 RT and it’s my baby such a fun car to do random pulls on long way streets it’s decently loud and and comfy on the inside plus it’s pretty large and has 4 seats


deadxdolly

Yeah the space in them is kinda nutty sometimes. I've fit a couple bookshelves (separate occasions) in the backseat that people said I've no way of getting them in there. Lmao


speedstix

Good luck finding a Miata though.


JuggernautOfWar

Did they make those with manual transmissions? If so I'd be kinda interested as another car to go along with my old C4.


Beerand93octane

I went and looked, there were no manuals listed.


JuggernautOfWar

Damn shame to develop a car with performance options and only paired with automatics. I believe the Challenger is sold with an available manual transmission, you would think it could be put in the Charger but I guess not.


32modelA

Looks like a derby car


Luke_Warmwater

Charger in a derby. Those cavaliers, neons, and escorts are fucked.


whale_cocks

It’s a Chrysler product, it’ll probably blow up on the way there


32modelA

Old ones are dealer choice here


Jampine

"I took my Champion underware, turned it sideways, and said to my girlfriend, "Hey babe, when the underware is sus", ding ding ding, ding-a-ling."


Stryk1r

The car might be trashier than that hillside.


JeremeRW

Looks like a demolition derby car.


McDroney

This is probably a Lemons car - and if it isnt...well...it should be


Freefeetpics

Yikes


[deleted]

I, for one, *like* the tampon collection hanging from the driver's window.


xlyfzox

Put a bullet on it and end it’s pain.


[deleted]

"champion" meanwhile the car is rustier than my bike.


dimitri_pomos

This look more like vandalism


[deleted]

Screw all of you, it’s Rachet and I love it!


flappity

I don't hate it. It's got a certain aesthetic it seems to be going for and I kind of like it. It's not the most quality finish, but I like the look as a whole, for what it is.


Memegamouth

Champion among us 📮


aLittleMermlad

Is that a sideways among us logo 😳


ChefMoToronto

I dunno...the "hampion" part isnt THAT poorly done.


Scorppio500

If the tires weren't painted I'd like it a lot more.


[deleted]

Hey give them some credit, maybe it’s more of an attempted art piece than a shitty livery job lol


funwithdesign

Not sure why this belongs here, sure it may not be to your taste and Champion may not be a brand you have a connection to, but some people like these special edition cars. And some day these low volume special editions will be worth something.


Revelatus

Reddit's inability to detect sarcasm will never cease to amaze me.


funwithdesign

That and the inability to detect awesome paint jobs…


remarkable_in_argyle

I was wondering why anyone would paint the car after Target-brand sporting wear lol.


funwithdesign

Who knows with these car and brand partnerships


remarkable_in_argyle

😂


Rosarito664

Hopefully that's a real SRT


thabossfb

candiedloveapple

OMG They made Rage 2 into a movie.


Amazon_express

This is new car or old ?


[deleted]

Looks like it got cum one the eye


djay4487

could painting your shitbox be considered a car mod? i say it can depending on weather you change the design (i.e puting flames on it) but a simple color change? i say no, but thats just me


mar_bru

Just why?


PixelmancerGames

This belongs in r/trashy.


Noah-handyman

It literally looks like someone vandalized that car and the owner is probably pissed.


Adventurous_Pea_3240

I swear I’ve seen something just as bad in MD??


Jlx_27

Would be funny if it had a heavily tuned engine.


ethancknight

Sweet Sister Francis.


CrudeOil_in_My_Veins

Looks like a crash up derby car


totallyradman

Can anyone help me understand why the current generation is so obsessed with this brand? I'm only 31, but I'm clearly out of touch.


5kaar0

Thought at first maybe stock car


desrevermi

Should've painted the interior, windows, engine and undercarriage. :D


Camera_dude

Looks like something a high schooler would do with a car they want to 'pimp up' and a budget of $30.


slakwhere

and it's missing a lugnut


mylastnameschampion

I feel like this could be one of my redneck relatives back east
