Hey, cool. I'll go first.
2018 Dodge Challenger 392 HEMI Scat Pack Shaker, options in my signature line.
Only thing non stock is the "Gimme Fuel Gimme Fire" decal around the gas cap.
Technically a 1 of 1 car, like thousands of other non typical combinations, apparently its closest sister car has red calipers vs my black 6 pots.
Pic #1, me and the beast getting fueled up at Sheetz
Pic #2 parked outside on the street with spring fever, rarin' to go.
I believe I should abstain, and besides, who could compete Good luck everyone. My problem, I like them all. I believe I will wait until later in the month to like
One of my favorite pictures. Lighting is bad, there's an ugly piece of track equipment in the frame, but oooooh, what a stance!
This one is from MSHS Atco, 2019. Plenty of Hellcat snobs didn't think much of the 1320 package (being NA and all)...until they saw this:
This one is a still from the MotorTrend/ NOS Energy Drink commercial that was shot using my car. I just like the angle, the juxtaposition of the "arrow" of the starter's pit and the car.
I suppose I should have done this 10 years ago, but it's never too late right? So here goes:
1. Three recent photos
A. In shade, front left angle
B. In bright sun, right rear angle
C. Modified engine bay - which looks completely stock (if you don't know what you are looking at).
2. Legal Modifications:
Factory (Mopar-Bucks) Add-ons*:
* Thanks to my cousin a retired Chrysler exec
4. Favorite Aspects:
I love the fact the car can change color, even the side stripes!
I love the fact my youngest daughter is pleased to inherit this car (she can hardly wait - even though it means my demise). It warms my heart to see her enjoy the car as much as I do.
I really enjoy the feeling of raw power; lifting the front end, getting that rocket ship feel under boost, and the cornering stability with the upgraded suspension.
I enjoy going to car shows, my Toxic Orange (aka "CatchMeCopper") is a big draw to enthusiasts of all types. I RARELY see another.
Last September I purchased a 2020 Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320 with the promise that it had Sport Mode settings and would work well on a road course...wrong! I just traded that vehicle for a 2016 Ivory White Tri-Coat Pearl Challenger Hellcat with 1,261 miles. The prior owner only drove the car once or a year or so and it sat in the garage under two car covers.
C'Mon, only 8 entries with all the awesome cars on this site?! You're all proud of your cars, so post em up! If it doesn't "win", you still haven't lost Don't make me post up my lowly SXT
OK, my hat's in the ring. New 21' SPWB Shaker M6. Picked up late Friday. Every available option except NAV. No mods except for detail shop work. Haven't had time yet! My favorite thing about this awesome machine so far? The incredible sound of that 392! Makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up every time I crank her up!
Oops, sorry for the Banana but it came off before the end of the photo shoot. But I thought these were the best shots.
My pride and joy is a knuckle white 2020 Scat Pack shaker. I’ve put the standard mods on, Catch can, front stabilizer bar, aluminum rear louvers and RT side strips.
Last picture was taken along side my friends SRT Charger, a real gem!

Nice. Question, how do you like the Race Bullets? To you, how did they change the sound of the car? Bought an exact same set for mine and am going to talk to my dealer about installing them on my 21' Scat this week. No concerns with voiding your exhaust warranty? Thanks.
‘19 AWD SXT Plus. Fell in love with the color years ago at the NYC auto show and it was like a beacon drawing me to it. I knew it would eventually be in my garage in some form.
Living in the Northeast and needing AWD I opted for the V6 because of the AWD option. Not the quickest by any means but still looks kick ass to me and have even won a couple of shows with it.

Now if you going to have a ride of the month - THIS is what I am thinking about! No disrespect to those who (just) drive their call off the lot and thinks it's the snizzle. Doing something like this shows investment, passion and worthy of a "wow" from folks.

What the hell...... 18 HC M6, carbon bits, billet stuff, Barton, that's about it so far. Favorite thing is driving it through the parking lot able to tap the gas for a bit of roar while feathering the clutch!!
Here's my 2020 SP WB, and yes, my best pictures are taken out back of my local Costco!
Favorite mod is the 2020 Hellcat Daytona Warp Speed Satin wheels I just had mounted last week. Happy Birthday to me!
The rest of my mods are in my signature.
Thanks for bringing this back. I love seeing so many very cool Challengers!
This is my 2015 Challenger SRT 392. It just celebrated its 6th Birthday on April 11th. I bought it in December 2017 when it had just 1,367 miles on it ... now it's at 29,975.
Legal Mods: Mopar T/A-style CAI, Mopar Front Strut Brace and Strut Tower Caps, Barton Shifter with a Speed Dawg Shift Knob.
Every time I start it up ... I smile. Every time I run through the gears ... I smile. When I happened to catch Boston's More Than A Feelingwhile sitting at a traffic light near my old high school ... I went back in time 40+ years to my '68 Charger R/T ... and I smiled. And last summer my wife took it on a trip from Florida to the Smoky Mountains and logged about 1,500 miles. And when we made a couple of runs over The Tail of The Dragon, we both smiled!
I’m humbled by all of the stunningly beautiful Challengers posted in this thread and I’ve had to stop and wipe the drool off of my laptop several times! Here is my car: 2018 TA 392 M6 in F8 Green. Legal modifications include: Window tinting, engine compartment bling including F8 Green painted accoutrements, Katzkin leather interior with copper thread to match shifter, Hellcat sized rear tires and wheels, exhaust cutouts - operated by interior switch to remain legal, rear window louvres, car lowered approx. 2”. Favorite thing? Out of 4 Challengers I’ve owned, I feel like this one is the coolest looking AND it is the same color as my first car that I ever owned!
