It’s a given that buying a relatively unused Dodge Challenger SRT Demon nowadays means spending considerably more than sticker, seeing as Dodge has stopped making these drag strip-focused muscle cars back in 2018, and their desirable factor is off the charts.
While the Demon will never surpass the regular Hellcat in popularity, it might just get the job done as far as notoriety because what’s better than owning a car built with one specific purpose in mind?
When it first came out, the Demon was considered to be the world’s fastest non-electric production car to hit 60 mph (96 kph) from a standstill, as well as over a quarter-mile. Sure, you had to do a lot of prep work to extract maximum performance and grip from this thing, but that was a small price to pay for a 9-second car capable of rocketing to 60 mph in just 2.3 seconds.
Of course, this 2018 Demon won’t leave you feeling as if you just paid a small price. It's only done 17 miles (27 km), which means it’s a brand-new vehicle and therefore extremely unhealthy for your bank account.
It is a good-looking car, though, thanks to that White Knuckle exterior with the black-accented Air Grabber hood, black rear decklid spoiler, black 18-inch alloy wheels, and Demon fender badges of the same color. We reckon this car would look amazing next to your typical LA backdrop, especially since Californians love white cars more than any other state, according to the numbers.
As for the interior, it’s pretty well specified with those red leather heated and ventilated seats, which by the way, still wear their protective plastic covers. Also included in the sale, as per the Bring a Trailer ad, is the uninstalled rear-seat delete kit, the Demon Crate (with its front runner drag wheels and race-tuned ECU), plus an additional set of wheels and tires.
At its best, the Dodge Challenger Demon can produce 840 hp (852 PS) and 770 lb-ft (1,044 Nm) of torque, as long as it’s sipping on 100-octane fuel.
