I have to admit.. after hitting a dear with my Honda awhile back.. I had the option to rent a 2017 challenger r/t for my therapeutic come back. Needless to say, it was fun, loud and being that I never drove a challenger before- a real eye open. It performed extremely well at high way speeds. It was sure footed and build well. You felt like you were driving something profound, made me realize how the older generations must of felt when the originals were introduced. It was a great opportunity that was granted to me when faced with a delema such as smacking a deer 🦌 and using this to see the silver lining in the cloud that I was underneath at that time. Good video.. the aerial shot of the smokey burnout was impressive, along with the line lock option.👍🏻
If i had this car, id never listen to the radio. Even though I love music, id rather listen to the engine, exhaust, and ofcourse the supercharger wine!
Waiting for my Redeye to be delivered this week. This was the most entertaining video yet about this awesome muscle car. Kudos to you. This car is supposed to be rip-roaring fun. In front of the Mayor's house? He's got your number! 😋
Old and new combined. Kept the. Old school styling,and comfort with new technology. Love it. GM and Ford could learn on style When new Camaro came out, Looked like it interbred with a Mustang. Mopar held true classic lines. From that era To combine, dropping kids at. School, and dinner date, then drag in the tens. Pure genius. A statement. And within reach to those without a trustfund. Just something about raw horsepower and torque. Sounds and handles like no other. Hit the nail on the head.
Your Mom get over yourself. There are literally 8 other colors you can get it in.. and no other car company offers more “colors that pop” than SRT.. plum crazy purple, Go mango orange, Green Go, Redline Red, Indigo Blue, F8 Green, etc, etc..
Unless your 6’10”. You should be able to adjust your seat UP giving your rear seat passengers plenty of room and still maintain good room for yourself. The challenger front seats go way back. Much further than the charger.
Driving Sports TV - your statement is not credible. I'm 6' 2" and I fit pretty well in the back seat. My 6`1" 260 pound friend fits reasonably well in the back seat. I've watched umpteen videos from people reviewing these cars and they all fit in the back seat. It's interesting that you make this claim but the video doesn't show anyone trying to fit in the back seat.
it most definitely is as i just ordered one today. this is on the demon specs read it: www.motortrend.com/cars/dodge/challenger/2018/2018-dodge-challenger-srt-demon-first-look-review/ and this is the red eye's specs: moparinsiders.com/2019-dodge-challenger-srt-hellcat-redeye-options-and-pricing/ the differences in the engines are the pcm tuning limits the super chargers are both the same 2.7L and use the same boost pressure of 14.5 compared to the smaller regular Hellcat 2.4L super charger with only 11.6 boost pressure. it also allows the red eye to red line at 6500RPM's compared to the Hellcat's 6200RPM's.
I ran a 9.93 quarter mile at 138.93 with a skinny body Red eye and a 2.3 second 0 to 60 mph .Mods were drag radials ,pulley ,tune and meth kit.The Video of the run is on you tube .It is a beast of a car.
The car seats up to 5, not just 4; and the back is fine for 2 adults if you move the front seats up a little. Also: on my '16 Hellcat, the "Sport" setting has the least traction control, rather than the "Track" setting.
This is truly a bad ass car and i want one badly...a man tried to kill me yesterday stabbing me 5 times in the head and one time in the neck...over him stealing my cell phone...the srt would have drivin me quickly away from him
I like the red eye because it has an automatic which is standard for the red eye hellcat! And I like the line lock because it allows the wheels to spin without burning out the brakes!
If I can't get a Challenger Demon, then I'll settle for Redeye. 797hp is still pretty close to 808hp, right? (No, I'm not talking about the 840 crate package for the Demon. I'm fine with 808, thank you very much.)
I would love to own one of these beast oneday, this and the Ford Mustang G.T. only two muscle cars I would ever need in a lifetime. Oh and a Porsche 911 Turbo S. That's it for fast cars. For me that is! But I know the insurance on these cars are not cheap. Last but not least for Dodge they should produce a HellCat RedEye Charger that would be epic as well, those would sell like crazy.
DEMONS...NOT a 1 HIT Wonder.... Multiple Reviews said it was a much better ride/ street friendly car more than the hellcat due to the softer suspension.
I’m pretty sure Dodge released a statement saying that the RedEye will start at $69k. I don’t know where you got $59k starting and $90k fully equipped. No way this thing has $30,000 in options.
Driving Sports TV Seems like a pretty un reasonable price for a car that underperforms in comparison to the Demon. Love the styling and performance but 90 Horses isn’t worth a $30,000 price difference. If this was information that was obtained at the press conference in Maine then I’d imagine the price is subject to change. I think that most people would rather put that money into a stock Hellcat which would Smoke the RedEye with that much invested into it. If this thing actually costs $90k I can confidently say that I will not buy one. Great review, it does provide a lot of insight on the car itself.
Dale Weinert I am well aware that the normal Hellcat starts at $59k after the price drop. In this video, they say that the RedEye starts at $59k and goes all the way to $90k when fully loaded.
Not without the drag radials. These all season tires have no traction when it comes to the SC Hemi power. It needs Michelin sport cup tires or goodyear supercar R3 tires more.
Pretty sure it ~started with the 6.4 which Mopar modified and engineered into the hellcat. When all was done the final result was 6.2l. Of cours there's way more to it lol
@@reyperez3424 demon engine has more webbing in the block and heads, different crank,rods, pistons, cam, valves, supercharger etc. It's a different engine than HC.
These things are bad ass. You can get the car for $75,000 not $90,000. If you want the car and engine and some cool stuff just not all $75,000 and NOT BAD AT ALL FOR 800 HP!! PS- IT is a detuned Demon engine not a hellcat.
Really needs the (goodyear supercar R3 tires) off the Zl-1 1LE or Michelin sport cup 2 tires. SRT is failing by not offering a sticky tire option....the same way Nismo Fk'd up not offering the sticky dunlop tire and carbon/ceramic brakes for the GT-R.
@@JerseyMikeP it's all for cost effective reasons. It's the cliche premium brand name part that fools the customer that the said product is good. Doesnt mean it's never true. But dodge undertires their cars. The only model that they dont undertire is the sxt and GT model
@@blackice7408 This is Dodge... Chrysler is the "Premium" name plate. Problem is Dodge tries to put an all season tire...since Dodge is the "budget" brand. The tires aren't small like more expensive brands. Also the all season tires aren't really cheaper than a lot of sports car summer tires. It's just really dumb when brands don't offer a high performance option...on powerful models. FYI, Ford usually puts the smallest tire size in their cars of the muscle car brands....probably why they are probe to running into crowds of people.
To any single guys out there... 2 of these, a Harley, your loaded Cummins of choice, buy them all and know that it is far less money than you’ll ever spend investing in a wife and far more dependable!
hey i got 1000 videos lol but this one is better than all mine put together lol! :) content my brother and u got it! oh wait i take that back i got a couple Arial Atom rides that was an insane ride ;)
subtract that unnecessary leather, sunroof, vinyl stripes, misc add-ons and that widebody option 6k??? PLEASE!!! how absurd!!! and you'll pay about $69 grand and change.... or lease it for about $950 per-month for 4yrs.....now that is a DEAL
Dude....if you’re using that touchscreen for anything other than suspension setup, you shouldn’t get a Red Eye. A motor with a sound like that, why do you even need a radio? Review the horsepower. Not the navigation features. C’mon, man.
Do your homework before presenting a video.Too may dead wrong statement s about the content of the car starting with the engine.It is a Demon engine making 11 hp less due to smaller hood scoop letting in less cool air.Not a hellcat based engine at all as you wrongly profess..
I am with you, though I think I would do it once to try it. The only other use to burn up $600 on rear tires would be at the burn out staging on a drag strip. I would still burn up those tires quickly as I could not keep from breaking it loose in second or third gear just because I can.
@@rivirme Yes,to scrub and warm tires to hook for launching.Idiot kids started doing brake stands but it sure is for drag strip it was meant.People who are paying for tires and brake pads & rotors feel your pain (as I do to).Adults dont waste rubber ,unless at the track for a purpose.
the last real muscle car. Camaro? No. Mustang? never was one with the exception of the 5th gen. Lexus LC 500? V8 but not the right face, also Jaguar F-Tpye.... Turbo V8 like Mercedes Benz AMG, Aston Martin? No comment.

There’s no problem with that large rear pillar, I just smash the gas and there won’t be anyone there when you change lanes.
Dodge stated that they wanted the Demon to be daily driven not just track bound that is why the Redeye was created...genius!
If I win Mega millions tonight. I don't need a Lambo or Ferrari. I would be thrilled as hell to have this!

Ditto!
I wish I can own it, it is really unbelievable such power such made.
All the best to the team.
If only the “red gem” in the hellcat emblem would glow red once you hit the throttle hard...
Finally!!! A Musclecar I can't afford. Yeah!!👍

Those steering wheel paddle shifters are perfect.
You alright in my book. Thank you FCA for keeping the dream alive.
Old and new combined. Kept the. Old school styling,and comfort with new technology. Love it.
GM and Ford could learn on style
When new Camaro came out, Looked like it interbred with a Mustang.

A statement. And within reach to those without a trustfund.
Just something about raw horsepower and torque.

Hit the nail on the head.
Man I need that in my life!! SOOO AWESOME!! Their Destroyer Gray is just sick!! MOPAR OR NO 💪AR!!
Man that destroyer gray with black stripes look AWESOME!! JUST TAKE MY MONEY$$$$$$$$$!!
As soon as he set everything to track I was like "questionable choice" and then as soon as he started driving he realized it was a mistake.
Looks awesome in destroyer grey
Love that color with black accents.
A $90,000 car should have a color with more pop but to each his own.

T U If I could afford one, I’d get mine in B5 Blue. I love that color
Why I'm in love with this car ! Damn it doesn't let me sleep
Too many misinformations! 😠 track mode gives you more traction, Rear seats are roomy, engine is a detuned Demon's motor!
Rear seats are not roomy. My 12 and 9 year olds could barely fit. -RD
Driving Sports TV i'm 6"1 and i sit comfortably in the back...
Unless your 6’10”. You should be able to adjust your seat UP giving your rear seat passengers plenty of room and still maintain good room for yourself. The challenger front seats go way back. Much further than the charger.
Really? My teenagers fit perfectly fine. Not as much room as my Tahoe , lol. I used to have a 911 S ....now those back seats were not roomy.

My dreamcar! I'll save up for it no matter what. Currently saving 500 a month =( living in a shithole and saving for a muscle car is hard.
Feel for ya brother...Buy lottery tickets daily too.lol..
LMAO 9:58!!! Tha damn burnout is being sucked in through the AC vents. 🤣🤣
Lmao I’m with you
Engine is actually a de-tuned Demon engine, not a Hellcat engine
You almost got it, it actually isn't de-tuned... Just has a different hood and less airflow through the intake.
Yeah not detuned, smaller supercharger.
@@asesinovida5708 it's not a smaller super charger it's the same super charger that was in the demon running the same 14.5 boost pressure.
Joe Holzer it’s most def not, than it would be a demon if that was the case! It’s a Demon engine with a hellcat supercharger!

Definitely want one.
I love the way the motor whistles
Lmao most of these comments are about this man getting corrected🤦🏽♂️

Sorry to hear,you need to go to Cold Steel.com and get yourself a pig sticker.
I like the red eye because it has an automatic which is standard for the red eye hellcat! And I like the line lock because it allows the wheels to spin without burning out the brakes!
Seem like buddy was afraid to drive it 😂 I don’t blame him tho
So much power the tires still spinning in 2nd gear on that launch control! Nice!
Good review, good vid
Seats 5. Barbies Beach cruising crowd killer and the my dad used to have 1 mobile seat 4. The Chally can seat 5 .
The Dodge Hellcat Redeye awakens the Child within . We all have a Child within that wants to be awakened !
If I can't get a Challenger Demon, then I'll settle for Redeye. 797hp is still pretty close to 808hp, right? (No, I'm not talking about the 840 crate package for the Demon. I'm fine with 808, thank you very much.)
I have 2017 challenger. I would love to have the red eye. But my money not set up like that

One Hell of a ride I'm sure!!!
Its the Demon engine.Not based on the hellcat engine.It is the full Demon engine chiller big blower and all.
I wish it is made as a standard!!
This guy reminds me of a young Jay Leno.
Red Eye means red eye!
This is low key the best Hellcat Review to date.
This will be my next car after my Scat Pack.
Might wantadd to your comments that launch control is not available until after you have driven the car 500 miles.
how much do you spend on gas ?
DEMONS...NOT a 1 HIT Wonder.... Multiple Reviews said it was a much better ride/ street friendly car more than the hellcat due to the softer suspension.

f you do not mind the consumption of gasoline. Can it be used daily on the street?
Absolutely. It’s a great cruiser as a daily.
If you drive easy it really isn’t that horrible fuel wise for a 800 hp car.
Great review, I'll be trading in my T/A 392.
The car doesn't make you do foolish things. If you feel like acting a fool, then this car is not for you.
Why didn't they install the Transbrake in this beast??? It would have seriously helped with launches and bring the 60ft and quarter time down...
Not without the drag radials. These all season tires have no traction when it comes to the SC Hemi power. It needs Michelin sport cup tires or goodyear supercar R3 tires more.
Great video ! Just subbed :)
Hellcat,Demon,or Redeye.I dont give a shit,Ill take either.
I cant believe they still have such a terrible backup camera image. Was hoping to upgrade mine to 2019 but still the same.
The best Hellcat...
“I think we’ll keep it at 797, thank you very much” 😂😂😂
Awesome car
Just order mine today
You got the battleship??? awesome choice...Congrats
Can somebody tell why they don’t put 6.4 liters in hellcats
Story of my life.
They shortened the stroke in the crankshaft for better rpm.
Because it burns more fuel
Shortening the crank or camshaft actually makes it stronger thats why they did it, seen it on another video..
Pretty sure it ~started with the 6.4 which Mopar modified and engineered into the hellcat. When all was done the final result was 6.2l. Of cours there's way more to it lol
What is this car color name?
Destroyer gray
Based on demon engine actually
Which car came up with the 6.2 ?
Hellcat!
Does the Demon have an upgraded 6.2 ?
Yes
So do you still think it's a Demon engine?

You’re wrong dude!!! That’s not based on the Hellcat engine, that’s an actual Demon Engine with a different tune!!!

These things are bad ass.
