2021 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody
If you ever wondered what would happen if an American muscle car
swallowed a furious feline, look no further than the Dodge
Challenger Hellcat. From its debut in 2015, this monstrous muscle
car has been clawing its way to the top, leaving tire marks and
skid marks on hearts and highways alike. So, buckle up and hold on
tight as we roar through the Hellcat's history, exploring the SRT,
Demon, RedEye, Hellaphant engine, and widebody models. In 2015, the
Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat made its grand entrance, growling and
flexing with a supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi producing 707 horsepower
and 650 pound-feet of torque. This fierce feline was the first
production supercharged Hemi from Chrysler and, at the time, their
most powerful engine. The Hellcat became the go-to muscle car for
those seeking teeth-rattling power and performance on a budget,
offering the most power per dollar of any American car produced.
Achieving a quarter-mile time of 11.2 seconds with street-legal
tires and a top speed of 199 MPH, the Hellcat pounced onto the
scene with ferocity. The Hellcat's journey to existence, however,
wasn't an easy one. Chrysler initially turned down the idea of the
powerful V8 to conserve money, but the persistent SRT team fought
for months until the project was approved. They created an entirely
new development process and built brand new facilities to test and
perfect the Hellcat's design. Little did they know that their
efforts would result in one of the most sought-after American
muscle cars in history. -Thx to Xtremecfm.com
In 2019, the Challenger Hellcat lineup expanded to include the SRT
Hellcat Redeye, a performance-upgraded Hellcat that took the place
of the discontinued Challenger Demon. This model borrowed the
6.2-liter V8 Demon engine, albeit with slightly less power at 797
horsepower. Additional upgrades included a track-tuned suspension,
SRT power chiller, and a reinforced eight-speed automatic
transmission. The Redeye was capable of taking on a quarter-mile in
under 11 seconds and boasted an impressive top speed of 203mph. For
consignment, a 2021Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody...a
powerhouse disguised as a family toter and grocery getter. Rear
wheel drive, check, 797hp 6.2L supercharged V8, check, all the
racing and horsepower heritage Mopar is famous for, check. Add in
it being a single owner, title verified 2,542 actual miles car
finished in a striking gray hue and bedecked with a few minor
modifications, and we have a sure fire winner. Read on and prepare
to have your outlook of sedans changed and your mind blown away by
this ultra high performance family sedan!
Exterior
Bathed in its original deep end of the pool Smoke Show, nary a flaw
can be found in finish as its coats the diamond chiseled lines of
this sedan. Starting with the very modern neoprene front bumper
with its thin SRT badgedgrille and thin wrap around HID headlights
with a pink dressed chin spoiler and louvered inserts below things
are getting very muscley here. Part of the SRT Widebody package is
the matte blackhood with functional scoop and dual heat extractor
panels that runs back to the glass, giving a nod to the muscle cars
of yore. Moving down the long slab sides with a throwback inset C
bodylline, the only variations from the all Smoke Show gray theme
are a small chrome and black highlightedHellcat badge on either
front fender...oh and don't forget the red eyes on the car, hence
the Redeye label. Exaggerated fender flares work perfectly on this
widebody package car and the tinted glass gives not only a cool
look but also helps keep other racers from seeing who's at the
wheel. Wrapping up the tail end is a thin and wide body integrated
tail light thatstretches across the width of the rear of the car, a
cavernous trunk with a small black SRT spoiler atop, and another
neoprene bumper with cutouts for the dual exhaust to exit. 20-inch
Carbon Black lightweight wheels adorn all 4 corners and are wrapped
in the factory 305/35ZR20 radials. We note this car is equipped
with the ParkSense rear park assist system and the ParkView rear
backup camera as well as blind spot and cross path detection
systems.
Interior
Swinging open the driver's door and we are met with a black leather
and suede trimmed door panel. Power window, power lock and power
mirror controls are held within as are one of the many speakers for
the factory Harman Kardon 19 speaker stereo system. This theme of
colors also appears on the long deep dash with a litany of red
highlighted gauges being in front of the Alcantara wrapped and
heated steering wheel that contains audio as well as other
controls. The Harman Kardon AM/FM/CD/XM/Apple CarPlay/Android
Auto/Bluetooth audio system with Navigation is in the center of the
dash within the real carbon fiber dash bezel insert. Power
ventilated and heated front bucket seats with smooth black Alcantar
leather bolsters and suede inserts with exaggerated bolsters and
SRT Hellcat stitching flank a central console which contains the
shifter and multiple storage compartments and again, more real
carbon fire. A long heated bench in the rear stretches door to door
and is of the same design as the buckets. With such low milage and
careful car, this interior looks and smells new, as does the black
carpet flooding the floors which looks showroom new, meanwhile a
black suede headliner hangs above and completes the package
perfectly.
Drivetrain
Lifting the scooped hood we see a true powerhouse of this sedan.
The factory installed 6.2 liter 797hp Hemi V8 rests between the
Smoke Show inner fenders. This mill is fed by EFI and bolted to the
back of this elephant is a Torqueflite HP90 A8 8-speed automatic
transmission. A 2.62 geared rear axle puts all this power to the
pavement with the help of a limited slip unit. Based on the window
sticker this car is equipped with the SRT Power Chiller and an
after run chiller. Our consignor has added a Mighty Mouse PVC/oil
catch system to prevent oil entering the engine through
recirculated air.
Undercarriage
Showroom new is the best way to describe the bottom of this car.
Suspension is independent on both front and back with Machpherson
struts up front and a multi-link with coil springs in the rear. Our
consignoradded an Eibach Pro Lowering spring kit and AAD
Performance rear control arms. 4 wheel power disc brakes, Brembos
withred calipers in the front bring all the horses to a stop. Dual
exhaust feed spent fossils to the rear after passing through the
factory installed mufflers. All buttoned up and looking great with
Adaptive Dampening Control, a Line Lock, SRT Configurable Drive
Modes, Launch Assist, .
Drive-Ability
It was time to draw straws to see who got the chance to drive this
killer sedan and somehow my crack decoder has found a way to thwart
my rigged straw game. A twist of the key and the HEMI roared to
life and after slipping the shifter into D we was off to the
Classic Auto Mall Test Track. Here the car had mind blowing
acceleration, beyond stellar braking, and handling like that of a
European sports sedan. We returned with all smiles and frankly I
felt a bit off and walked a little slower than normal after feeling
the stampede of this elephant.
When Dodge came back with the Charger R/T in 2006 and then the SRT
we thought we'd seen it all. Im proud to say we were wrong...the
Hellcat SRT Redeye is one serious contender in the modern muscle
market with a supercharged Hemi V8, gobs of horsepower and all the
modern amenities one could want, this 4-door isn't one to be toyed
with. 2,542 miles, 1 owner and tasteful, in this writer's opinion
necessary, modifi...for more information please contact the seller.
