Unless someone has lived under a Martian rock for the past year or so, American pony and muscle car enthusiasts know very well that both General Motors and Stellantis have signed the death certificates for their Camaro and Charger plus Challenger nameplates, leaving Ford and its S650 Mustang alone to keep the ICE-powered banner up.
General Motors most recently announced details about the fate of the iconic Chevy Camaro – and there isn't a lot of good news. More precisely, the production for the 2024 model year of the sixth generation will end in January after sounding the death knell for the 2.0-liter turbo engine and a range-wide, Panther-themed Collector's Edition plus a 56-unit-only Garage 56 ZL1 flagship. Moving on, there will be no direct successor, and GM only promised that this is not the end of the road for the nameplate itself – fueling speculation about the potential introduction of sedan and crossover EV derivatives in the near future.
Stellantis, meanwhile, has announced for more than a year that the ICE-powered 2023MY Challenger and Charger will be the last of their kind. As a way to appease the fans, the company allowed Dodge to prepare no less than seven 'Last Call' editions culminating with the 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 and its mind-numbing 1,025 hp force on E85. After that, all we have to do is sit and way patiently for Dodge to come out with the production version of the Charger Daytona SRT Concept and give it nine levels of Banshee EV prowess.
But what about Charger fans? Don't they deserve something along the same bonkers coordinates? Well, if not in the real world, then at least across the imaginative realm of digital car content creators, that is! Thus, meet Danny Berry, the 25-year-old automotive virtual artist tucked behind the razzdesignz moniker on social media, who has created something Charger that could rival a Challenger Demon 170 any time of day and especially of the night – given the all-black with gold wheels and body details approach. If not necessarily in terms of performance, at least visually, this thoroughly slammed and intricately widebody Charger could stand next to any Demon 170 without feeling any loss of pride.
That's because all the usual tuning, customization, and personalization suspects are present and CGI-accounted for. The entire body has been modified with new aerodynamic elements, the widebody kit, plus all the golden accents, and the super-sedan looks ready to break the quarter-mile norm at the local dragstrip both in modern and vintage terms – given the aero warrior-style rear wing or the rear windshield louvered attachment. The deep-dish golden wheels don't hide the potential brake modifications, and the stance would make even a JDM car fan entirely proud. Too bad the interior POV is missing in action, and we also do not know anything about the potential supercharged V8 monster lurking under the hood, right?
