The 2023 Challenger Shakedown is Fantastic .. but is it worth it?
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In this installment I give you a full review of the 2023 Dodge Challenger Scatpack Shakedown special edition. Limited to 1000 cars, the Shakedown is offered in both regular and widebody variants with the later being offered in only manual transmission. If you like black and red, this is the last call model that is best suited for you. Do you think the 2023 Shakedown is worth the asking price?

My 1320 Plus package with the SRT spoiler and hood pins listed for $57,795. No way this gray narrow body is worth approx. $10K more than mine.
I didn't pay that much for my hellcat back in 2016/17 $65,000 and rebate $63,000 out the door and I still have it and it paid for.
I like the standard body version, you can keep the wide body, I don't care for fender flares on my cars

Great review!! That's a hell of a car. I like the hood pins! It would be the bees knees if it was wide body, in black with an 8 speed auto! Price wise, that's up to the potential buyer to decide. Honestly, I'd say anyone fortunate enough to own a 392 car in any trim is a very lucky person! Shakedown,Swinger,R/T, whatever! Rock 'em if you got em! You're all winners in my book! Mopar baby! Mopar!
Holy cow! My brand new 2022 WB Scat Shaker (fully loaded) didn't even cost that much! Glad I bought it when I did!
I got the automatic version. Very fun. Get compliments literally every place I take it too. Already 5k miles on it
I tried to buy one of these this week, but the interest rates killed that idea. $1,1150/mo. w/ $6,000 down and excellent credit rating. Would not negotiate at all.

Wow In 2019 I bought my charger scat pack out the door for 43k and now I went to the dealer here in Turlock California a few months ago and the scat packs are going 75k and hellcat 112 k crazy expensive

If it didn’t have the goofed up stripes and they would release the automatic in a color other than primer gray they would sell more.

I’ll take it. Wrap it up. 😀 No Harmon, needs the Harmon. I miss my 2020 Charger R/T Plus Hellraisin. If I had know what Dodge was going to do with their pricing, never would have got rid of it.

Back when these came out 2015 put my order in for a scat pack. Fully loaded out the door was 45k with 485hp. 8 years later same hp and graphics and widebody and wider wheels. makes the price come up to 65-70k can’t see myself paying that anymore.. crazy.
Great video‼️
I am going to dodge dealership to pick out my scatpack. I’m undecided if I should get regular scat or shaker. Which one you like better? Is there any problem with rain getting in hood of shaker?
$67,300 for a dream car sounds like a steal to me.
Love shaker hoods. That's all I can say. Love 'em!
Great review on a badass muscle car! This series is over priced a bit, but it must feel good to be back in a 392, even if just for a review... The Black version is sick...
The shaker is offset to the passenger side. I remember seeing something like this on a slant six cuda or challenger. It was owner customized. I thought it was an abomination.
Hey there they changed it to 30 day free trial.. im so glad i bought it for my 2020 challenger scat
I love the red seat belts.. I wish my car had them instead of the black.
They bring any of them to Canada and the sale price that a land lord will incur over a person before they have quantifiably paid for one of those is just a few bucks under $5'000'000, for the base model.
just curious never seen a review on a.sxt or gt challenger.
Wouldn't going from 40 grand to 70 grand be a 75 [!!!] percent price increase? I wonder what the dealer pac, that is the extra profit added to the list price is.
The shaker is my favorite!!

I wouldn't trade mine for this narrow body "shakedown," which it is🙄 $64,195 msrp on my WB Shaker , didn't add auto high beams, rain sensitive wipers ,nor nav. Got the upgraded alpine over the Harman Kardon. The only thing I wish I had added was those hood pins 😢 plus no sunroof on that shakedown SMDH
67k for a narrow body is wild. I paid 68k for my widebody shakedown (yes I know that that is also a little too much money realistically). Beautiful cars though
"Carlock the destroyer"😅😅 sorry I had to do it.
I drive a 2020 RT Shaker with the 5.7 engine. I replaced the stock tires with ones that have better traction and I drive it sensibly because I want to keep my car for many years. Only problems I have had is starting from a stop in the rain, or far worse on snow covered roads. I have to do a lot of night driving and my biggest problem has been raccoons. I have hit five in just two years with damage from $350 on the low end to $6,500 on the high end. Other than not driving at night, does anyone have any suggestions on avoiding suicidal animals on the roads?

great review!! I like the challenger but would not by steallentis products. My opinion they are taking advantage of the situation coming in the future auto markets..
I bought my brand new 2020 Shaker WB 50th Anniversary Challenger Sinamon stick with matching color stitching inside. Has carbon fiber and suede liner. MRSP WAS 62K Loaded. Got $4,850 off Power dollars. So paid 57k and my 50th anniversary WD shaker challenger looks better.
Problems w/ CL device.. discharging the car battery
IF U HAVE UR ORIGINAL SHAKER INVOICE U CAN COMPARE WHERE THE COSTS INCREASED ARE.
If I were in the market for a Scat Pack, I would go for this. My dealer has one each of the gray and black versions, and I would go for the gray one, because my left knee has problems and working a clutch is difficult for me now. Anyway, I already have a nicely loaded 2019 Scat Pack, with the same performance and suspension goodies as the gray Shakedown, which I paid less than $54K for, when new. As much as I like the Shakedown, my practical nature has decided it's not worth the extra $ to trade up. I'll keep my TorRed Scat Pack.
My widebody shakedown is a manual, but not all widebodies are manual, they build autos too
“Shakedown” as in my pocketbook!
🏆Racer X 🏆🍀 sick 😎✌️
Stopped by Courtesy Dodge on my way out of FL from visiting my dad I’m West Palm, drove two different Challengers, was willing to buy one, but they couldn’t get me sold to a bank… otherwise, nice group of people, but your friends weren’t working that day…

Nah I'll pass and keep the base Scat. Cool look.
None of these last call cars comes with sunroofs or Harmon Kardon systems which was a deal breaker for me especially at 70k. They claimed weight reduction I called it BS.

Absolutely positively NOT worth the price. That's a 717 Hellcat price. I have a 22 Scatpack Challenger widebody all black with red/black interior with a sunroof and navigation. And paid far less. Granted its not a last call edition but even it was it would still be far cheaper and you get more. Just my opinion.

That car is not even worth 45k!
50th Anni Shaker/Wide in Green or Red for me.
I will agree with you the Black looks better then Gray even though it has a manual transmission that sucks.
Hitting hard with a lot of great content this week @RacerX Thank you for your efforts!
I can get at least 20 smiles a gallon out of my Scatpack Charger!
A bit of a mathematical error there racer x on that price point percentage diffrence for perspective sake. $40,000 to $67,200 is a 68% price jump instead of the 40 to 45% error mentioned in your video. So basically, the car is 1.7 times more expensive, give or take. An entire car and a half if you will, and for nothing more other than just astetic visuals and no added performance or tech, only slight exception would be a manual to a very small degree. Besides all that, all of these cars become special with age. This is nothing more than just another customized factory trim that'll blend in with all the other special titled trims and it'll be obsolete to more than half the car culture once enthusiasts begin to forget what year the challengers stop being made and what year this trim was made. Plus, all the overshadowing versions of the Hellcats that are leaps and bounds ahead in grunt, sound, and sheer power over the NA 6.4s.
Hate the stripes. I'll keep my 2023 TorRed 1320.
Nice
That thing is perty
A little pricey, but heck it's the last call.
some crackhead on facebook was trying to one of these for 85k, i laughed so hard i needed oxygen after. I just saw a 392 charger with 75k miles for 48k on carmax. I also found on carmax a base model ten speed 5.0 Mustang with 9k miles for only 35k........ that shit is whack! whois actually not gonna buy a practically brand new Mustang over a practically blown out 392? S550 prices are actually getting lower because the S650 and the S197 Mustang is pretty much a steal at this point.

Not my cup of tea. Yes, it looks nice in black with an M6 in widebody style. But after owning a 5.7 M6 Black Top edition and now my A8 Scat Shaker, there is no desire for it. If money was no object Mopar 23 M6, Black Shakedown Widebody M6 or Sublime Swinger M6. And save some pocket change to get a Plum Crazy Demon 170 to go racing with you...

I have to agree with the "fun usable power" sentiment. I spent a bit of time chasing power and it turned out after about 550hp mark ..that while the car was able to win more races it wasnt' anymore fun to drive.

Will it hold off the Depreciation going off the lot? Add ADM on to it and Flips??? Still ashamed that the Dodge V8s are going away?
