Easy really, build to the same specs as guys are modding their cars to over 1000 whp and offer it from the factory. Most ones don’t do it because of the warranty issue when people start beating up on them and it isn’t easy to figure out when they pushed beyond what the car was made to do. Then they have to worry about finishing returns on pricing these cars since few can buy them and they make less off them unless they price them ridiculously ( Ferrari/Bugatti prices for a Dodge would be stupid regardless of the performance).

I was in the same position as you are now. I owned a 1970 Plymouth AAR cuda since 1973 that I absolutely loved and kept for 48 years. But the longer I owned and drove the car which I did, the less and less I enjoyed driving it. Old cars are amazing to own but actually driving them is not so great after a while. They drive pretty crappy, ride pretty crappy, crappy seats with vinyl were quite uncomfortable and made my back and ass sweat to soaking wet, were fast for the time but not so much now, were poorly insulated so heat from the engine bay and exhaust underneath made the car get quite warm inside even on cooler days. And honestly I got sick of the attention the car drew everywhere I went and I got sick of telling the "My cuda" story. So even though I swore I never would I sold the car in 2021 and because the car had appreciated in value so much over the years I was able to buy a brand new '21 Challenger Scat Pak paid in full and boy I gotta tell you SOOOOO much better and way more actual fun to drive. Don't really miss the 'cuda and definitely not sorry I sold it. It was time.....

I wish my grandfather was around to see this level of performance and where things have come from his muscle car days. What a time to be alive when this is FACTORY.
This guy needs to get familiar with Dodge. Several times he refers to "The Original Demon". His HUGE error is that the "Original Demon" Is NOT even a Challenger! And the "Original Demon" was way back in the 70s.
I remember when 320 horsepower was alot the whole twin turbo 3000gt Supra 300zx era ….at that time thinking a car would be manufactured with this much horsepower strait out of the factory was unheard of….. wow how times have changed
As a Mopar guy, this is probably the saddest era ever. But my guess is, after a few years of them trying to force EV on us, it will fail. They will bring back ICE and hopefully life will be restored.
electric is impractical, will burn you alive if you crash it, and cannot be mass produced (unsustainable), too expensive etc. its a fad for car makers to make some extra cash on soy drinking cucks who like electric dildongs on wheels.
I can already hear some rich kid telling UA-cam to "SMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON" when he inevitably gets one and proceeds to drive it into a wall on his 2nd video.
Same as the old Challengers with left over parts, yet Stellantis is charging an exorbitant price. The wide body apparently only applies to the rear of the vehicle for the front fender panels are not wearing the 'fender flares'. Maybe, they ran out and just had enough to make a certain amount. Wait until one drives in for service or tries to acquire parts. * We are sure that the heads on the engine are made in China and Brazil and all the parts are outsourced.
You’re all being duped. This isn’t the end of the ICE. Dodge is getting you all spun up on emotions, people gonna stock pile these away as ‘investments’ and in 10 years you’ll see the next V8 mopar muscle car drop.
@@rustyshaklferd1897 ive seen quite alot of people saying that there was no way they was gonna release a more powerful car than the demon but eh its what i seen
I call B-llSh-t because I have never seen a regular Demon go 9.60s like they claim always low 10s. This will run what the early Demon was supposed to run. I guarantee my plaid will smoke it. My plaid runs 9.10@151mph
I wonder how long it will take to forget about ICE cars when EVs start running low 8's & 7's. Do you want to sound fast or actually GO fast? A lot of people hate on imports, but can you honestly dis a 6 second GTR?
I own a sti and an evo. Never been big into muscle cars. But man it’s sad to see this era end for muscles. This thing is a beast and has all my respect 😮💨😮💨🔥🔥
I grew up on muscle cars I own a 69 Chevelle with a 572, 69 Charger (currently being restored) my great uncle 67 GTO was passed down to me once he passed 2 years ago. Recently just got a 69 Camaro (no engine) and a 68 mustang that was my grandmother's sister car I own it now also. Going to Arizona in 2 weeks to pick up a 70 Chevelle (Not the LS6) but is a 454 LS5. I am not on board with this EV bs. Latest one I own is 2021 ZL1 and brother owns a Hellcat Redeye Challenger.
Pretty sick! Cool to see Dodge break the 1k HP barrier on a production car. Serious question though, how long do the catalyst last on this thing? 10 passes? lol
I really hate that dodge is killing the charger and challenger. Going EV with those two is a bad move. Nobody wants simulated exhaust sound. Give us the real thing or people will just buy something else.
Does anyone doubt that if they opened up ordering right now for this car at $200k each that all 3000 cars would be spoken for within 5 to 10 mins, if not even less. What a freaking amazing machine!!! A rear-wheel drive pretty heavy coupe with a full interior that has 1000 HP at the crank which would be about 820 to 830 hp at the tires that will do 0 to 60 MPH in 1.66 seconds!!!!! Are you kidding me??? Here I have a heavily modified and E85 tuned Redeye Widebody Challenger Hellcat with just a tiny bit under 1000 HP at the tires and I am running mid 9's at 140 to 142 mph in the quarter mile and maybe doing 0 to 60 in 2.3 to 2.5 on the track and THIS FREAKING STOCK Hellcat with a 60k mile powertrain warranty is running in 8's an doing 0 to 60 in 1.66 seconds! That is just insane really.
Why change something if it sells "if it ain't broke don't fix it" it has the essence of the 70s and that's what people like that buy them. I have a charger because I like sedans over coupes, would I get a challenger, no because the stang is more comfortable than the maro and Challenger in my opinion.
UPDATE: Dodge will also be making a special manual transmission Demon 170 Ronnie Sox version to commemorate the great Mopar drag racing legend. 100 will be produced in a Red, White and Blue color scheme, and it will feature an RTS G101A GFORCE 4 SPEED DOGBOX TRANSMISSION, to lay to rest the quickest manual transmission car ever produced.... A man can eat his cake too, right?? 😀
This an amazing muscle car!! Absolutely stunning!! I also, think that’s why ford, didn’t reveal their next generation GT 500 cobra yet. Now let’s how Ford, or perhaps Chevy, reacts with their next generation muscle car. Computation, will be good, for consumers!! Having said that, going from this beautiful, Challenger, to an electrification. Will not in best interests of dodge, I suspect!! 🤔

Had a 70 Road Runner back in my day. I’m 67 now but still pine for a muscle car. I’m sure I’d be cruising around like a savage in this. You must know you’d love to see what it could do. You’re youthful self would be reengaged as soon as you started it. Every red light you’d rev the engine for that coveted I got the horsepower right here folks feeling. But alas the wife would tell me those days are over old man. But the grandchildren would be jumping in for a ride….you’d be happy as can be.
Thats on a prepped surface with drag radials.....any high horsepower, AWD vehicle (electric or gas) will beat the demon on the street on their street tires.
"If EVs take hold?"? Mate, most major manufacturers have already given dates for their last ICE cars. We are at the pinnacle of gasoline performance. In the muscle car era it was unthinkable that one of the big 3 could release an 800-1000hp street car with a warranty (and emissions controls!). Enjoy it while it lasts. EVs are the way forward.
I've got a 6 speed, 5.7L 2013 Challenger RT with less than 25K miles on it & am in love with this car! At 63 years old, I plan to have it til I die & thankfully do not have to drive it in Ohio winters. One day I was at the store & a lady about my age was walking by as I started the car to leave. She flagged me to roll my window down & said "Now that is how a car should sound." Made my day
@@mhagnew Not my way forward :-) I have the funds to purchase a new Challenger but i personally feel the 70 model is a better looking car. So, im going back. No electronics to interfere with my driver input and no one can remotely turn it off either.

As a Mopar guy, this is probably the saddest era ever. But my guess is, after a few years of them trying to force EV on us, it will fail. They will bring back ICE and hopefully life will be restored.
Everything becomes soulless and horrible when you let Schlomo run everything. Cars are no exception.
YES!! 🎉
@@gigachadtjk1956 solomon was a nice guy
❤ E-cats
Same!!!!!!! I hope that next EV challenger Will be a flop.
That's a proper send-off!
The last middle finger before EV's take over
electric is impractical, will burn you alive if you crash it, and cannot be mass produced (unsustainable), too expensive etc.
its a fad for car makers to make some extra cash on soy drinking cucks who like electric dildongs on wheels.
“Nothing inside will tell you that this Challenger is much different than any other”… cut to a giant demon cartoon on the dashboard.
You know the “market adjustment “ on those will be $75-$100k
Not a muscle guy but I'd love to get behind the wheel of one of these
I can already hear some rich kid telling UA-cam to "SMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON" when he inevitably gets one and proceeds to drive it into a wall on his 2nd video.
Same as the old Challengers with left over parts, yet Stellantis is charging an exorbitant price. The wide body apparently only applies to the rear of the vehicle for the front fender panels are not wearing the 'fender flares'. Maybe, they ran out and just had enough to make a certain amount. Wait until one drives in for service or tries to acquire parts.
* We are sure that the heads on the engine are made in China and Brazil and all the parts are outsourced.
Alright Dodge, youre the KING.
you need to realize it’s LS
@@isaiahfuture3222 modified* LS… these are 1025HP from the factory. Stock for stock, this eats every Chevy/Ford motor for breakfast.
@@tenlmao yeah your right😂 but only stock tho lol
You’re all being duped. This isn’t the end of the ICE. Dodge is getting you all spun up on emotions, people gonna stock pile these away as ‘investments’ and in 10 years you’ll see the next V8 mopar muscle car drop.
And to think people where saying no way they will build a more powerful car than the demon XD
Nobody said that. They said it was an e85 tune with higher boost. How high and how much hp were the only questions I’ve heard
@@rustyshaklferd1897 ive seen quite alot of people saying that there was no way they was gonna release a more powerful car than the demon but eh its what i seen
@@speedhunter7156 yeah that’s cause the collectors knew they were gonna lose money when they made a faster one
It’s basically a Demon on even more steroids.
@@rustyshaklferd1897 900hp on 93
I love the rear only wide body it makes it so unique
I call B-llSh-t because I have never seen a regular Demon go 9.60s like they claim always low 10s. This will run what the early Demon was supposed to run. I guarantee my plaid will smoke it. My plaid runs 9.10@151mph
Exactly, I am still looking for a video that shows a full run with times with one of these 170’s ..any leads? Lots of talk but have yet to see it.
That thing literally looks like a miniature tank and did 0-60 in 1.66 secs. Incredible
Only dark times ahead for the auto industry after the end of the Charger, Challenger, and even the Camaro
Fittingly, the Mustang will be the first, and last muscle car.
Yeah, I can’t wait for everyone to be driving wussie-mobiles, with their little BS motors.
I wonder how long it will take to forget about ICE cars when EVs start running low 8's & 7's. Do you want to sound fast or actually GO fast? A lot of people hate on imports, but can you honestly dis a 6 second GTR?
@@nathanielbailey108 The mustang already wasnt the first and isnt even really a muscle car at all.
@@nathanielbailey108 mustang was never and will never be a muscle car. It was made for women in the 1960’s lol

This makes history everyone
I grew up on muscle cars I own a 69 Chevelle with a 572, 69 Charger (currently being restored) my great uncle 67 GTO was passed down to me once he passed 2 years ago. Recently just got a 69 Camaro (no engine) and a 68 mustang that was my grandmother's sister car I own it now also. Going to Arizona in 2 weeks to pick up a 70 Chevelle (Not the LS6) but is a 454 LS5. I am not on board with this EV bs. Latest one I own is 2021 ZL1 and brother owns a Hellcat Redeye Challenger.
Rock on lenny.
Pretty sick! Cool to see Dodge break the 1k HP barrier on a production car. Serious question though, how long do the catalyst last on this thing? 10 passes? lol
That's not a concern.
So glad that my grandpa was a MOPAR salesman from 1946-1979 & I grew up with the best generation of cars & trucks - RIP Dodge, you will be missed ✌💖☮
better and faster then the plaid
Not a Dodge guy but this is absolutely sick. The way cars should be! Job well done Dodge, job well done 🍻
So get a nice hellcat for around 60 & throw some slicks & a nitrous kit on it lol
I really hate that dodge is killing the charger and challenger. Going EV with those two is a bad move. Nobody wants simulated exhaust sound. Give us the real thing or people will just buy something else.
Holy crap. What the hell is Dodge doing 😅😅😅. I thought everyone is going electric 😂. I can see chevy and ford going oh NO not again 😂😂😂
Does anyone doubt that if they opened up ordering right now for this car at $200k each that all 3000 cars would be spoken for within 5 to 10 mins, if not even less. What a freaking amazing machine!!! A rear-wheel drive pretty heavy coupe with a full interior that has 1000 HP at the crank which would be about 820 to 830 hp at the tires that will do 0 to 60 MPH in 1.66 seconds!!!!! Are you kidding me??? Here I have a heavily modified and E85 tuned Redeye Widebody Challenger Hellcat with just a tiny bit under 1000 HP at the tires and I am running mid 9's at 140 to 142 mph in the quarter mile and maybe doing 0 to 60 in 2.3 to 2.5 on the track and THIS FREAKING STOCK Hellcat with a 60k mile powertrain warranty is running in 8's an doing 0 to 60 in 1.66 seconds! That is just insane really.
What an amazing send off, such a conflict of emotions right now

@@Cuda_Jr even if he owns a pony car it doesn’t make this a pony car also. Where’s the full frame and big block?
Why change something if it sells "if it ain't broke don't fix it" it has the essence of the 70s and that's what people like that buy them. I have a charger because I like sedans over coupes, would I get a challenger, no because the stang is more comfortable than the maro and Challenger in my opinion.
@@mikefranzen and you say that after probably not driving any of them...
Damn. Dodge is going all in. This is crazy horsepower.

For real! What a shame!😢
One last punch for all manufacturers or just Dodge?

@@evanleo7633 cool! Straight lines, not that interesting but hey you're probably right
And do you mean production ICE car?
Would rather have them devote their energy to making a final year affordable V8 Challenger for the working guy.
All the people who bought the demon for a crazy price in 2018 punching the air rn or nah?
Most of them have already sold it on some time ago. And many of them will buy this one now.
@@pistonburner6448 or crashed it
I believe they have been offered first dibs on these.
85k for a demon in 2018 is a steal, regular hellcats are more than that now
@@vuckyabx And they will all lose
UPDATE: Dodge will also be making a special manual transmission Demon 170 Ronnie Sox version to commemorate the great Mopar drag racing legend. 100 will be produced in a Red, White and Blue color scheme, and it will feature an RTS G101A GFORCE 4 SPEED DOGBOX TRANSMISSION, to lay to rest the quickest manual transmission car ever produced....
A man can eat his cake too, right?? 😀
This an amazing muscle car!! Absolutely stunning!! I also, think that’s why ford, didn’t reveal their next generation GT 500 cobra yet. Now let’s how Ford, or perhaps Chevy, reacts with their next generation muscle car. Computation, will be good, for consumers!! Having said that, going from this beautiful, Challenger, to an electrification. Will not in best interests of dodge, I suspect!! 🤔
Not as powerful, but I always gravitate to the Max Wedge 413s/426s of yesteryear. True, original muscle.
I'm ready to see Richard Hammond thrash one!
Proud to have once owned a Scat Pack Shaker, now a HEMI Challenger.
That is INCREDIBLE 🔥🔥
it's kind of sad they never did this to a viper. that car isn't nearly as loved

Hopefully this doesn t go out of production before i can afford one...
Too bad this will be the last of the demons and hellcats. So sick of electric, we’re not even close to ready for it and shouldn’t be moving to it.
100% agree. But you do understand who is pushing them onto us.
You mean you are not ready.
I was hoping they would use the helephant engine but this is still cool
Kind of wished they would’ve changed the name to something different but car is crazy either way 🔥

It's describing the car. When you have 1000hp under your foot and you pull up to a red light who's really in control?

You’re youthful self would be reengaged as soon as you started it.

This gets me hard.. I'm gonna miss the sounds of real engines. If Ev's ever really take hold 😢
"If EVs take hold?"? Mate, most major manufacturers have already given dates for their last ICE cars. We are at the pinnacle of gasoline performance. In the muscle car era it was unthinkable that one of the big 3 could release an 800-1000hp street car with a warranty (and emissions controls!). Enjoy it while it lasts. EVs are the way forward.
I've got a 6 speed, 5.7L 2013 Challenger RT with less than 25K miles on it & am in love with this car! At 63 years old, I plan to have it til I die & thankfully do not have to drive it in Ohio winters. One day I was at the store & a lady about my age was walking by as I started the car to leave. She flagged me to roll my window down & said "Now that is how a car should sound." Made my day
@@mhagnew Not my way forward :-) I have the funds to purchase a new Challenger but i personally feel the 70 model is a better looking car. So, im going back. No electronics to interfere with my driver input and no one can remotely turn it off either.
