2017 DODGE CHARGER

If you're searching for a powerful, all-wheel-drive American muscle sedan at an unbeatable value, look no further than this 2017 Dodge Charger SXT for sale at Best of Michigan Auto Sales in Detroit, MI. With its bold styling, capable AWD drivetrain, and proven V6 powerplant, this Charger delivers the performance and presence you expect from the Dodge nameplate — at a price point that makes serious sense for budget-conscious buyers in the Detroit metro area.

About This 2017 Dodge Charger SXT

This 2017 Dodge Charger SXT sedan carries 145,399 miles, which places it squarely in high-mileage territory — but don't let that number scare you off. The 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 that powers this generation of Charger is one of the most durable and well-regarded engines in the segment, with countless examples surpassing 200,000 miles when properly maintained. At this mileage and price point, this Charger represents exactly the kind of value that Detroit buyers are looking for: a full-size performance sedan with room for five, real muscle-car DNA, and daily-driver dependability. Whether you're commuting downtown or hitting I-75 for a longer run, this car is built for it.

The SXT trim sits at the entry point of the Charger lineup but comes well-equipped. Dodge doesn't strip out the character at this level — you still get the wide-body stance, the aggressive front fascia, and that unmistakable Charger profile that turns heads on Woodward Avenue and beyond.

2017 Dodge Charger Performance and Engine

Under the hood of this 2017 Charger SXT is Dodge's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, producing 292 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission featuring AutoStick manual control, this setup delivers smooth, confident acceleration with the added flexibility of manual gear selection when you want a more engaged driving experience.

What truly sets this particular Charger apart is its AWD (all-wheel-drive) configuration — a major advantage for drivers in Detroit and throughout Wayne County who deal with Michigan winters. While many Chargers come in rear-wheel drive only, the AWD variant distributes power across all four wheels, giving you far better traction on snow-covered freeways, icy side streets, and the unpredictable wet pavement that comes with Michigan spring. The 8-speed transmission also contributes to solid fuel economy for a vehicle of this size, keeping highway driving efficient without sacrificing responsiveness.

Dodge Charger SXT Features and Interior

The 2017 Charger SXT is equipped with a feature set that punches above its trim level. Inside, you'll find Dodge's Uconnect infotainment system, which was widely praised for its intuitive interface and responsiveness during this model year. Bluetooth connectivity, a rearview camera, and available satellite radio make every drive more connected and convenient.
 

Comfort and Cabin Space

One of the Charger's most underrated qualities is its cabin size. As a full-size sedan, it offers genuine rear-seat legroom that compact sport sedans simply can't match. Whether you're a rideshare driver in Detroit, a family hauling kids to school in Dearborn or Southfield, or just someone who values real space, the Charger delivers. Cloth seating, dual-zone climate control, and a driver-focused cockpit layout round out the interior experience on the SXT trim.

Technology and Safety

The 2017 model year brought refined electronics across the Charger lineup. Expect features including keyless entry, cruise control, hill-start assist (especially valuable with the AWD system), and electronic stability control. The Charger also earned respectable safety scores from NHTSA during this generation, making it a practical choice for everyday family use.

Dodge Charger Reliability and Ownership

The 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 used in the 2017 Charger is one of the most ubiquitous and proven engines in Dodge's entire lineup — it powers everything from Ram trucks to Jeep Grand Cherokees, which means parts are plentiful, mechanics know it well, and maintenance costs stay reasonable. Owners consistently report that with regular oil changes and basic upkeep, these engines run reliably well past 150,000 miles.

The 8-speed automatic transmission in this generation is also well-regarded. Common ownership considerations at higher mileage include monitoring transmission fluid condition, checking brake wear, and inspecting suspension components — particularly control arm bushings — which can show wear on high-mileage examples. These are routine, affordable fixes that a trusted Detroit-area mechanic can evaluate during a pre-purchase inspection. Overall, the 2017 Charger SXT AWD has a reputation as a durable, cost-effective full-size sedan that holds up well over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 2017 Dodge Charger SXT a good buy?

Yes — the 2017 Charger SXT offers strong value, especially in AWD configuration. The Pentastar V6 is proven and reliable, the platform is solid, and the full-size interior gives you space that most competitors in this price range can't offer. At higher mileage, the price drops significantly while the core driving experience remains intact.
 

How many miles is too many for a 2017 Dodge Charger?

The 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 is widely known to last well past 200,000 miles with proper maintenance. At 145,399 miles, this Charger has plenty of life left, provided it has been maintained regularly. A pre-purchase inspection by a trusted mechanic is always a smart step on any high-mileage vehicle.
 

What does the Charger SXT trim include?

The SXT is the entry-level Charger trim and includes Uconnect infotainment, Bluetooth, a rearview camera, keyless entry, cruise control, and electronic stability control. It delivers the full Charger experience — performance, space, and style — without the premium price of higher trims like the R/T or Scat Pack.
 

Is AWD worth it on a Dodge Charger?

Absolutely — especially in Michigan. The AWD system on the Charger makes a dramatic difference in winter driving conditions. Detroit winters regularly bring snow, ice, and slush, and the AWD variant handles those conditions far better than the standard rear-wheel-drive Charger. For year-round Michigan driving, AWD is a genuine advantage.
 

What should I check before buying a high-mileage Charger?

Focus on transmission fluid condition and shift quality, suspension bushings and control arms, brake pad and rotor wear, and any evidence of coolant leaks around the V6. Also pull a vehicle history report using the VIN (2C3CDXJG9HH557698) to verify service records and ownership history.
