He agreed with you. The Challenger RT gives a V8 experience but the performance isn’t earthshaking. I’ve seen Martinjlm make the same observation.

You mentioned your RT is ten years old.

2009 Dodge Challenger SE / R/T / SRT8
Challenger R/T is where it’s at, offering as it does about 90 percent of the fun with a claimed 5.5-second 0-to-60 time, a 14.0-second quarter-mile,

The 2020 Honda Accord just won a 10Best due to its outstanding chassis. It can do 0-60 in 5.4 seconds and the 1/4 mile in 14.0 seconds. It is also available with a manual.

This sensible family sedan is a sleeper because of how the Accord’s chassis responds when roused from a lazy commute. Alert steering and fluid handling turn every dogleg on-ramp, cloverleaf interchange, and 270-degree off-ramp into a momentary escape from the monotonous and the mundane. The precise action and satisfying weights of the steering wheel, the pedals, and the manual shifter suggest a kind of engineering harmony that you rarely find outside of sports cars.
