While the far prettier and similarly powerful 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is $4,000 less expensive, $63,995 will buy you the quickest, fastest and most powerful production sedan ever made. By all accounts, that's a crackin' deal for the most performance you can get out of a car that can seat five and their luggage at 204 mph (328 km/h).
The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat then. It's head case motoring this. The primary culprit for the mega performance comes in the form of a 6.2-liter HEMI V8 internally known as the Hellcat, which is churning out 707 horsepower and 650 lb-ft (881 Nm) of twist thanks to a thumping great supercharger bolted on top of it. As standard, the SRT boys are offering the Charger Hellcat with a fast-shifting eight-speed TorqueFlite automatic gearbox.

Non-Mopar fans might bring out the "Hey, isn't it quite the fatty?" Well, yes. But even so, the all-new Charger SRT Hellcat does the quarter mile in a blistering 11 seconds on street tires, while the 8HP90 gearbox and the Brembo braking system enable the kitty from hell to go from 0 to 100 and back to 0 mph in under 13 seconds. This is the real deal, Mopar folks, a sedan with a style scream for not a lot of money.

With production slated to start early next year, the standard Charger SRT Hellcat comes laden with all the bits and bobs one could ask for. As such, one is left with a single great personalization problem – the exterior color of the thing. At launch, the Charger SRT Hellcat can be had in a choice of 10 distinctive hues: TorRed, Redline Pearl Tri Coat, B5 Blue, Bright White, Ivory Pearl Tri Coat, Billet Silver, Granite Crystal, Jazz Blue, Pitch Black and Phantom Black. Sublime Green isn't available for this bad boy, which is a shame.

Furthermore, Dodge recently detailed the rest of the 2015 Charger lineup, pricing, specs, optional kit and all. You can go as low as $27,995 for a 2015 Charger SE, a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6-powered model that boasts with 292 horsepower and 260 lb-ft (353 Nm) of torque. Paired as standard to an eight-speed auto, the least expensive Charger model can be had with an all-wheel drive system for extra grip and traction.
