2014 Dodge Charger Available Features: Cons
Year	Comment
	You can get just about any feature offered on any $40,000 car on the Charger, including full-speed adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, blind spot warning, auto-dimming xenon headlights, rain-sensing wipers, heated-and-cooled 12-way-power front seats, heated folding rear seats, and a heated power-tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel. Plus a 552-watt Beats audio system. What has Chrysler withheld for the closely related but more expensive 300? Not much aside from the options of more extensive leather upholstery, real wood trim, and a panoramic rather than a conventional sunroof. While I prefer the styling and additional luxury of the 300, I don't think I'd pay the higher price for it. Yet we find feature availability among the "why nots." The reason: powertrain options. Sure, you can get a V6 or any of three different V8s. But, unlike in previous years, all-wheel drive is offered only with the V6. This will limit the Charger's appeal in locales with distinct seasons. Many driving enthusiasts won't mind this nearly as much as they'll mind the lack of transmission options. Unlike with the related two-door Dodge Challenger and the Chevrolet SS, a manual isn't offered. Of course, if you want a rear-wheel-drive sedan with an automatic transmission, then ignore this "why not." see full Dodge Charger review

2012 Ford Mustang Available Features: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	2dr Coupe 305-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed manual RWD	I don't like how Ford forces one to step up to the premium to get SIRIUS, or a leather wrapped steering wheel. I'd prefer to see a more a la carte approach to options on the base version. see full Ford Mustang review
