The Dodge Challenger is a big retro V8 brawler!

The Dodge Challenger is one of the most iconic cars of this decade, ranking along the fellow retro-style cars from Chevrolet (Camaro) and Ford (Mustang). There's all sorts of different models for it, and this one is the high-performance Hellcat model. It has a regular Hemi engine that produces 717 horsepower, and it has a special hood among other visual figures. This car's most notable feature is, however, its purple paint.




This car is a very special car for a regular Hellcat as it has been converted to RHD, as it is in Australia. Other special editions include the Widebody, which is a Hellcat with a bodykit; the Demon, the special edition drag car with a crate full of parts; the Scat Pack, which is also very drag orientated and is built to the Super Stock rules in the NHRA; and the much more road-orientated GT AWD.




Some interesting facts about the Challenger include that their washers in the supercharger are diamond encrusted due to the tension they are under, the very first Challenger Hellcat raised $825k for charity and was painted in an exclusive colour of red from the Viper, and there is even a ringtone of the Hellcat offered by Dodge. It's not these that take people's breath away, it's its looks and performance, though.
