Yes and with the 1k SRT spoiler you cannot get the Bumble Bee stripe. I went with the stripe for half what the spoiler costs. Allot more visual "bang for the buck" if you ask me.
I didn't know that, that seems dumb to me. I love the Scat Pack stripe, mine is part of the Scat Pack Appearance Group, but now they are a-la-carte.
My second choice depending on color of the car is the Shakedown stripe.
 
Same here. I would have given up the WB option to get the Shaker. I know, I know...giving up performance for looks. Didn't say I would've liked it. But it's gonna be my DD. Has to be "old school cool"! Am happy for 21' they offered both and that's what I got.


Awesome, good luck!

funny i figured the opposite add the spoiler and forgo the stripe, figured any decent body shop would put one on for 3-4 hundred. also gave me options on picking my own custom striping

Yeah, good way to get both. But as said above, I just don't think there is 1k worth of difference in the 2 spoilers. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder". Spice is the variety of life.
 
This Shaker thread has been spoiled...

I have it, I love it. The main reason I got a Challenger over a Charger. I had a 2015 Charger and absolutely loved it, but wanted to step up to a 392, so when looking again, for kicks I included Challengers in my searches, then the SHAKER sucked me in, literally.
Only downside is the expense, they are an expensive option for no shown or claimed performance increase.
Well, another slight downside is that it is a bit more involved putting oil in the engine, but literally 1 minute of your time. You remove the SHAKER top, and then you get the the Oil Fill openings. But if you get the super cool SHAKER tool, all the more swagability included.

I made some posts a year or so ago about mine for kicks.
(1) Wonder what is under the SHAKER? Pics included. | Dodge Challenger Forum (challengertalk.com)
Agreed on all points. I ordered a 2021 and had to make the Shaker decision. I went the other way and decided against it for practical reasons: stock Scat hood looks great, don’t care for the white gauge background (prefer the regular black, not sure if this changed from 2020 to 21), and... $2500 premium.
 
I have a 17 Scat Pack Shaker, that I bought used. The premium when buying them used isn’t as bad as buying new, at least from my experience.

I can’t see any downside to buying one other than the extra 2 minutes required for oil changes. There’s not much shaking going on though as these engines aren’t from the 1970s.
 
so lets get back to business, i special ordered my scat just to get the shaker, for me it provides the ultimate throw back challenger look.

it was actually the thing that kept me from ordering a hellcat, that and the 392 should have enough hp for a daily driver
Couldn't agree more. It's the closest thing in the stable to the early 70's vibe. Don't need 700+ HP to make me happy. They didn't have that back in the day and everyone was delighted. (not that I'm knocking it, maybe next time?)
 
So whatz it like for SKT PK 9 Man to have to wait on this day?
Torture, maddening, patience is not my strong suit! Delayed gratification? That's what going to Heaven is all about.
 
So very well spoken. Heaven on earth is coming for you..........😎
Sooner or later, tomorrow is my 3rd delivery deadline. I am cautiously optimistic....could it happen? The planets align....

Welcome and congrats. I believe this is my 1000th post and what a perfect way since 95% of these posts were about Shakers. I'm on my 6th Challenger and I absolutely have an opinion.
I Love the looks and it is a nice separation from all the SXT's driving around. No performance gains (still don't know why) but the looks do it for me. Is high priced but is the first opinion box I check.
Both of my Shakers are/were daily drivers with many NC hot summers and many drive thru stops with no over-heating, except by the servers.
Would I do it again, yes and I did and my next one will be a Shaker too.
Only reason my first 3 weren't Shakers is they weren't out then. When they were available I got the 40th one ever made. My 5th wasn't because I went cheap planning on C8, once that car disappointed me I went right out and got another Shaker. View attachment 1016769
Yours is an exceptionally nice Challenger, willing to say best I've ever seen.

why the shaker hood and the SMALL lcd screen M6?
ITS WHAT A MUSCLE CAR IS.....SHAKER MAKES IT TOTALLY UNIQUE its the only way i was going to purchase this car---no shaker no deal no dreams fulfilled no nothing. Mustang toooooooo small shaker makes it now magical.
flash back to the 1970 red w black accents cobra jet 428 a girl in college had (never gave me a ride) her's was manual
to me and i've had to wait 45-50years to get a muscle car had to flash me back to a day gone by.
nothing like it, the shaker to me makes this car--get tons of looks and compliments. its why i bought it
the manual (check my other posts) is amazingly easy to drive stop and go so much torque i do a 2-4-6 shift mostly.
S0000 why did i order it with the small screen? well the larger screen 8.4 upgrade stereo junked up the trunk where i couldn't get a spare. I just hate run flats and fix a flat is a mess d

oesn't always work--well a spare does (the other option is to buy a spare kit from say amazon and keep in trunk)
SHAKER MAKES IT SERIOUS.......
