Chassis No. XP29G8B441181

Few cars are as closely associated with a single character as the black Dodge Charger R/T driven by Dominic Toretto. Introduced in 2001's The Fast and the Furious as the 900-horsepower car that famously beat a speeding train to a railroad crossing in the film's climax, the Charger has returned in nearly every chapter since, rebuilt, wrecked, and reborn across more than two decades of the beloved franchise. Because the films demand punishing stunt work, each production has required multiple examples, and those that survive are sought after by collectors of both muscle cars and film history.

This Charger was built for and used during production of F9: The Fast Saga (2021) and Fast X (2023). It is offered with a historic title that names Universal City Studios LLC. as the owner. The car pairs a gloss-black finish, R/T door badging, and the chromed horizontal grille trim of the 1970 model with the franchise's trademark polished BDS supercharger, its triple-inlet scoop rising through an opening in the pinned hood. Though non-functional, the scoop is operated from a button in the cabin. Inside, a full roll cage is welded into the body, the factory dashboard has been replaced by a riveted aluminum panel carrying four round gauges, and a fabricated aluminum transmission tunnel bears the houses a ratchet-style shifter.words "Jump Car" written by hand-a hint at the role this Charger may have played on set. Low-back bucket seats with harnesses, a three-spoke steering wheel, and riveted door panels with window cranks complete the stripped interior.

The constant in a saga that has spanned more than two decades and ten main films, Toretto's black Charger is the car audiences associate with the franchise before any other, and the one that returns no matter how many times it is seemingly destroyed. With the series now approaching its final installment, cars built for and used in its production are only becoming more sought after. This example pairs the franchise's most recognizable silhouette with the raw, purpose-built performance of a genuine hot rod. For collectors of American muscle, Hollywood memorabilia, or both, it offers something few cars can, a direct connection to one of the highest-grossing film franchises of all time.
