Vehicle Description
2010 Dodge Challenger SRT 8
The 2010 Dodge Challenger SRT8 is a reboot of the original styling
of the 1970's classic that is to this day still highly collectable.
Retaining most of the look from the 1970's but with a modern
contemporary style. Also, it is loaded with the technology of the
day, making it a turnkey car, no wrenching required to look classic
but perform with today's standards.
For consignment a low mileage, (14,792), original title verified
mile example of the Challenger reboot showing some modern muscle
but in a one of 939 built retro throwback color of Plum Crazy for
the SRT-8. This example is in excellent condition and sports plenty
of options and power making it a high performer making more horses
than the 1966 street Hemi. Oh, and did I mention it's a menacing
looker as well, with plenty of interior creature comforts and the
benefit of an added Procharger supercharger and requisite tuning,
front strut tower brace, and Pedal Command Unit.
Exterior
I'm absolutely crazy over the color of this car...a true retro
throwback...Plum Crazy. This purple hue bathes the body and shows
as new with a few very minor scratches that should easily buff out.
Looking much like the throwback to the 70's version we see dual HID
headlights, the inboards being marker lights, within an elongated
oval grille all in menacing black surrounds, neoprene bumper and
chin spoiler hovering just above the tarmac. This giant lower air
dam increases downforce and helps cool the brakes. As we move our
eyes to the passenger compartment we glide over the raised center
hood, complete with black stripes and functional scoops. The
roofline is rakish and looks like it's moving forward as the car
just sits there. Black frameless glass with drip shields and tinted
windows along with sporty body matching side view mirrors allow you
to see where your competition is and most likely will stay! A
chromed racing style gas cap and a small lip spoiler is on top of
the flat rear deck. More crash test dummy neoprene makes up the
aero bumper and rear roll pan that shows dual chromed rectangular
exhaust tips peeking out from the bottom. Large 20-inch polished
wheels are wrapped by gummy black wall radials and shine nicely on
all 4 corners accentuating the body kit all in black.
Interior
Race inspired leather covered high back buckets have charcoal black
suede inserts and smooth charcoal black shiny exaggerated leather
bolsters. A sporty purple highlight strip runs through the back
along with SRT embroidery in white below the headrests. Nice white
stitching also highlights these seats, with the driver's being
power actuated. In back a 2 plus 2 bench in the same motif and in
excellent condition is seen. A center console races forward between
the buckets and has a glovebox, LED lit cup holders and the freshly
installed Barton Racing shift lever housing. Rising from this
center is a mid-dash which has climate control knobs and an
interactive EVIC screen for the Bluetooth, radio, Navi, performance
outputs, and voice activation. In front of the driver is a cascade
of white-faced analog gauges under a squared off design eyebrow
visor. Above is a nice tight headliner which provides the backdrop
for the power actuated moon roof and below is charcoal gray
pristine carpeting.
Drivetrain
Under the hood is a 6.1 Liter V8 Hemi which in stock trim puts out
an amazing 425hp. It has since been upgraded with a Procharger
supercharger, new catch can, and proper tuning and now makes a tire
shredding 477hp at the rear wheels. To encourage better throttle
response, a Pedal Command unit has been installed and for chassis
stiffening a strut tower brace is tying the front end together. It
is fed by EFI and bolted to the back is a Tremec TR6060 6-speed
manual transmission. A 3.92 rear axle is on and is a Getrag Limited
slip version.
Undercarriage
Appearing as like new with rust free gray steel making up the
unibody and flooring, there is no rust and little road dirt on this
underbelly. No rust, no drips, no errors for the bottom end of the
engine or transmission. Power Brembo disc brakes on slotted rotors
are all around, and independent suspension with Bilstein shocks and
struts which is SRT tuned keep you hugging the corners nicely. A
Borla stainless steel cat-back exhaust system is in charge of spent
fossil removal and to help create a wonderful roar.
Drive-Ability
As expected it fired right up and ran like a champ with worry free
power, shifting and great handling, something the muscle of the
70's did not have. A nice overall example that will throw you back
in the seat with anything more than a tickle of the go pedal.
Retro styling, creature comforts, and plenty of muscle from the 6.1
liter mill takes us back in looks but forward in performance and
reliability. Throw in some HID lighting and several convenience
options and we have a car!
