first impressions, 09 Hemi Charger

Seen lots of those on I-205 and I-5. Does it have the plastic back seat and column shifter?
no. it has the regular upholstered rear seat, thank gawd. Those plastic back seats are just awful.
Yes, it has the column shift. It has the auto stick feature built into it, which is rather bizarre. So far, it feels pretty janky. I don't know why, maybe it's the odd angle of the handle, the gates, I don't know yet.
It also has another separate stalk for the cruise control, which I haven't tried, yet. It looks rather unintuitive.
