Imagine, you're driving along on a Sunday afternoon. Everyone you look at is looking back at you. As you pull up to a stop light, someone in the coffee shop on the corner stands up wide-eyed, and mouths "Wow!", knocking over his fat-free latte in the process and shorting out his Macbook Air, which emits a pleasing curl of white smoke. A group of coeds stream out from the book store opposite. When they notice you, they let out a whoop, and one of them shimmies seductively. The tall one, all blonde hair and attitidude, lifts her shirt before strutting off around the corner, hips-a-wiggling to the astonished cries of her friends. The light turns green, you shift into gear, and ease away. You can feel dozens of eyes still watching you, but as you ease your foot ever so slightly down on the accelerator, the unforgettable sight of a topless young beauty is suddenly forgettable. The rear tires fight for traction as the needle on the tachometer hits 1500 RPM. You're hardly on the gas, but the engine jumps to life and it's all you can do to keep the car in a straight line. But you've got it. You ease down your right foot a touch more, balancing the urge of the rear tires to break loose and your own urge to send your charge at full speed down the road ahead. Within seconds you've shifted from first to second, then third, and now fourth, your shifts crisp and clean, as you marshal the relentless tug-of-war between the huge motor and the mammouth rear tires. Now you're on the open road, 100 MPH a distant memory, but the faster you drive, the more the car sticks to the road. There's no danger, because the other cars pull to the side in reverent gesture to the beast that has been unleashed on the road they are not worthy to share... Ok, I did say imagine. It might not happen exactly like that (editor's note, the preceeding dream sequence was performed on a closed road by a professional driver), but if you were the proud owner of a 2008 Snakeskin Green Viper Coupe, wielding 600 HP and 560 ft/lbs of torque, you might be surprised at what you see, trust me on that ;-) and what you can do. If your dreams consist of heading over to Home Depot and loading up the family vehicle with a year's supply of mulch and spackle, you'd better have a VERY small yard if the vehicle in question is a Dodge Viper. And chances are, it's lack of fold-down rear seat and hoseable trunk mats will have already put you off. Alternatively, if your idea of a green car has nothing to do with the color of the paint, the Viper's 8.4L V10 might just raise a red flag or two on your econometer. So, the Viper is a special car. It isn't practical. It has only one cup holder, and a trunk barely big enough to hold a magnum of Champagne. It's tires are so wide, even if you were foolish enough to take it to a car wash, it wouldn't fit on the tracks. When you climb into a Viper, you need an instruction manual and a deep breath. When you climb back out again, you need a plan and asbestos pants. But I can assure you, it is all worth it. I've had my fun. I need to save some money so I have at least a 10% chance of retiring before I keel over at my desk while telling someone, for the very last time, that I think they are on mute because I can't hear them. So, please, take me out of my misery. Give a guy a chance to live a little more. Buy my car...go on..do it! |

Dodge Demon priced at $84,995, or almost 20 grand more than a Hellcat
Tue, May 23 2017Ridiculousness has a price, and it is $84,995. That is the admission fee for the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon, or as most people call it: The Demon. The number includes a $1,700 gas guzzler tax and $1,095 destination fee. It does not include a number of options, may of which cost a dollar. Of those $1 options, a front passenger seat and rear seats are but two. Which is more of a reminder that, yes, Dodge will sell you car with only one seat if you want it that way. The other big $1 option is the Demon Crate, which includes skinny front tires for the drag strip, an impact wrench and jack, and a performance powertrain control module that bumps the power up to 840 hp on race gas. Dodge says the true value of the crate is $6,140. Don't let that fool you, as chances are they're just baking that cost in the $19,705 increase from the Challenger Hellcat. Did we mention you can get a sunroof. Yes, you can get a sunroof, for $4,995. Surely one of the 3,300 Demon buyers (3,000 in the US, 300 in Canada) will take pride in checking every option box. For posterity, here's the entire list verbatim from Dodge's press release: Demon Crate ($1): Exclusive Demon Crate offers components that unleash the car's 840 horsepower, 770 lb.-ft. of torque and full potential at the drag strip and is personalized with the buyer's name, VIN and serial number. The Demon Crate and the performance parts it holds are valued at $6,140, but Challenger SRT Demon owners can buy the entire package for $1.
FCA's large, LX-based RWD cars will stick around until 2020
Mon, Nov 7 2016Fiat Chrysler Automobiles plans to stick with the Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger, and Chrysler 300 until at least 2020, reports Automotive News. The information comes from two unnamed sources and was loosely confirmed by details in the automaker's new labor contract with Unifor, Canada's auto union. The plan, according to two anonymous sources, is to lightly refresh the Challenger, Charger, and 300 until the vehicles make the switch to FCA's new Giorgio platform. The refresh, as Automotive News points out, will happen in 2018. The Giorgio platform currently underpins the Alfa Romeo Giulia and is expected to find its way to two of the three large American vehicles for the 2021 model year. At that time, FCA will discontinue either the Charger or the 300, claim AN's unnamed sources. If one of the vehicles were to go, it would most likely be the 300. The 300's LX platform would be approximately 15 years old in 2020 and the vehicle doesn't draw in as many sales as the Challenger or the Charger. The Charger made the switch from the LX platform in 2010 with the current model utilizing the mildly updated LD platform, while the Challenger recently moved from the LC platform to the LA platform last year. All of those rear-wheel-drive platforms are closely related. Automotive News points out that FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne stated that the new platform could be utilized across various applications in a conference call with analysts last month. The plan, according to the report, is to stretch and widen the Giorgio platform for the next-gen Challenger and Charger. The new platform is also rigid enough to allow the automaker to add a convertible to its lineup, which could lend further credence to rumors of an upcoming Barracuda. Hopefully, the move to the new Giorgio platform doesn't delay the all-wheel-drive Challenger GT AWD or the wide-body, Hellcat-powered Challenger ADR. We'll just have to wait and see.

2020 Dodge Charger R/T and Scat Pack get Daytona Edition Packages
Mon, Apr 27 2020Dodge announced the Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody Daytona 50th Anniversary Edition late last year, limited to 501 examples, one of which has already gone to that big NASCAR infield in the sky. For the rest of the Daytona fandom, Mopar Insiders says Dodge has just opened the order books for the Daytona Edition Package available on the standard Charger R/T and Scat Pack. When optioned with the package, both trims get a Mopar cold air intake under the hood, a black spoiler, and a satin black Daytona graphic across the rear decklid and fenders. Both sedans also upgrade their side mirrors to automatically adjust downward when the transmission is put in reverse, plus an automatically-dimming driver's side mirror. Inside, they share power driver's and passenger's seats in Nappa leather and Alcantara with the Daytona logo, heated seats front and rear, a premium-stitched dash panel with gloss black instrument cluster rings, and a power tilt and telescoping steering wheel. Additional upper and lower LED lighting in the front of the cabin, plus illuminated rear cupholders, memory functions for the driver's seat, radio, and outside mirrors, and black-edge premium floor mats complete the interior changes. The Charger R/T sits on 20 x 9-inch Lights Out painted wheels, and installs a heated steering wheel and security alarm. The Charger Scat Pack sits on 20 x 9.5-inch forged and painted aluminum wheels, and affixes more satin black decals on the roof and the hood on top of a Daytona badge on the grille. The mirrors are luxxed up further than on the R/T, being powered and heated as well as fold-away, and including a blind-spot warning. Inside the Scat Pack, a Daytona badge on the instrument panel mixes with Carbonite accents throughout the interior. The Daytona Edition Package can be ordered in any of the 12-strong color palette, including Frostbite (pictured), Hellraisin, and Sinamon Stick that are new for 2020. The kit adds $3,495 to the prices of both cars, so before any other options, the 2020 Charger R/T Daytona comes to $41,385 after destination, the 2020 Charger Scat Pack Daytona comes to $44,985.
