All car guys are searching for that one machine that delivers pure joy. You know you've found it when you park it, and look back at it as you are walking away. I hope everyone here finds the one.
After driving cheap and used cars for a decade, I just bought an R/T charger, cosmic cherry red with black daytona decals and shit. I look back every time I get out of it. I take it out for 10 minute rides just to hear the engine growl. I have no doubt in my mind that it was completely worth it lol.
@@Achillusgaming Similar story here so I understand exactly what you’re saying. I’ve had some decent cars through the years such as Police Pursuit Charger, Mustang GT, WRX, but nothing like the Porsche Macan GTS I bought around 4mo ago. Every time I get out of it I turn around and look at it as I’m walking towards my front door. Sometimes I’ll go out to check the mail just to look at it. I try to come up with something that I need at the Grocery store just to have an excuse to drive it. Never had so much fun.

I disagree about the visability out of the windows and the usefulness of the door mirrors, but agree about the sensitive throttle pedal! This 392 V8 has all the power I need! Stay safe.

They kept it secret, started changing names on the same car, taxing your for nothing. Ugh. Anyways, welcome to the Mopar / Hemi family. The 6.4 is a beast. Be easy on her for a little while.

I need a challenger before they go away. It's got to be a manual which means it's got to be a v8. I did not know the 6 cylinder challenger doesn't come with a manual

I really loved this ScatPack model because of 6.4 Hemi engine and raw sound. Especially Charger ScatPack is super amazing to drive, best ride comfort and looks awesome.
Just got one a few months ago. Everyday i drive it i get huge smiles. What a machine.i have a 6 speed manual in mine.and custom exhaust. Shes a ripper :)
@autotopNL thank you for making a video of this 392 challenger...I used to work at the factory where these cars were made in Brampton, Ontario, Canada alongside the dodge charger and Chrysler 300 models and we had to ship these cars out to the final destinations...the hellcat is great and all but the 392 with the widebody and 6 speed manual is an underrated combination...the automatic doesn't do this car justice
(Scat Pack Charger owner here) Couple of points: You're correct, the dash material isn't a pure leather. I'd call it 'leather-ish', lol. I have a 2018 Scat Pack, and the dash on mine is a slightly rougher, more tactile texture. I think they switched to this smoother material in 2020. 2. I've driven a few Challengers too, and I agree the driver's side mirror is of little/no help. At least they tilt down when you shift into reverse though, which helps when parallel parking. (if you didn't see them do that, you likely need to enable that option in the settings menu). Seems to be a common thing among American coupes too. I've always had issues with mirrors on Mustangs and Camaros too.
10:58 - funny you mention that. I just returned from a short holiday in the Los Angeles area. While there, I splurged a bit and rented a Widebody ScatPack Charger from Turo - specifically so I'd have something fun to drive on the Angeles Crest Highway, as well as some of the numerous canyon roads around the LA area. (and since we don't have twisty roads like that where I live, it gave me a chance to see how my own car might perform on these roads) Obviously, the Charger wasn't as nimble as something like a 911 or a Miata, nor would I expect it to be. But I honestly felt like it drove lighter than its actual size, and kept it's composure all the way through. Much of the canyon roads out there don't require a ton of speed anyway, so momentum (and some timely help from the awesome ZF gearbox) was more than enough to keep the fun factor up and the power band engaged when you needed it. Overall, it met and in many ways exceeded my expectations. I'd never claim it to be a future road course king, but it's nice to know it's much more capable than just drag strips. ;)
I've never driven one. One of my employees always wants to race me in his Scat. I normally just laugh and blow him off. He loves his car for sure. It's a 21 Charger Scat
…, hi .. last week I Drive 291 Km/h with my 392 ScatPack… but is was in the night .., a lot of place .. no traffic … I Love this car …. Greeting from Germany
Just bought a 392 shaker. This is the most perfect car for cruising long distance or straight up blasting from a stop light. Definitely a collectors car in the future.
I was in Germany in the 80's and most American cars couldn't keep up steady on the autobahn without eventually overheating or just breaking down.They weren't made to drive steady over 80 for long periods of time.These new DODGE cars have definitely stepped up their game.But I wonder how they will perform on long trips on the autobahn ?
Hey, just seen your comment. We have basically the same one as in this video just without widebody :( but it is perfect for long trips on the autobahn or any other "highways" in other countries around us. We did a trips to Pisa or to the Normandy and even a few hundred kilometers on the autobahn were really enjoyable. But with aftermarket suspension, 22 inch wheels, top of the line tires. So yeah no issues at all but you need to stop every like 200 to 300 hundred kilometers to get fuel if go 200kph+ for some time.
Dodge now designs all SRT products to be used full tilt non stop for 24hrs straight without the need of maintenance or repair. Of course no one drives like that for that long and they have some suggestions on what to do after a elongated hard run, but they are definitely capable of the torture for performance.
@@quentonmillstid850I live in Ukraine (the biggest European state counting as a hole territory landed in Europe). Sometimes it may be about 400 miles from one border to another one and i don't feel much tired after that trip. Most European countries are even smaller. I don't actually understand why they need those autobahns LOL. Personally, I call those European autobahns as Autobahns to the neighborhood 😄
How was the manual for you? I've heard bad things about them for the Challenger. Thinking about getting a Scat Pack this spring before they discontinue them.
@@jeffjackson9679 It had 8k miles on it and would refuse to go into 2nd nearly half the time. Would have to pull at it quite hard and it would clunk in eventually. Was under warranty, just never had had it looked at. Probably just a fluke, otherwise no issues.
@@camree_trdee6628 I have a 2010 R/T with the 6 speed. It has issues as well. not sure how they keep messing them up, it's supposed to be a good transmission
@@camree_trdee6628 there’s nothing wrong with your transmission, it’s a feature that purposely skips second and goes into 4th to keep gas mileage high. You should understand your car before buying it. All manual 392s and hellcats have the same thing. Nothing was wrong with your car.
Mopar FTW! Love the sound of a Hemi! And yes, some more American muscle would be awesome to see. (of course some of those cars may not be super easy to get a hold of in your location, but whatever you can grab is fine!) :)
Actually, and I'm not sure how public knowledge this is but mopar got most of the idea of the hemi from ford. The chamber design and valve placement came from ford several years ahead of chrysler, but chrysler did do their own changes to make the idea work with their engines and used it for marketing.
@@Punk-Jw yes in 39 when they was building for rolls Royce aircraft. Also again in 43 I think. I love my Mopar but as a car enthusiasts, I love the hobby of working on engines.
Just drove my 2023 Last Call version today. This video was an influence for my purchase months ago. Bilstein adaptive suspension, ZF 8 speed. He’s right about the European gearbox. The ZF 8 speed is an all time masterpiece, in its MANY applications. As a four time BMW owner, turn in and handling are great. Put that in a blender with a 6.4L American V-8, and happiness ensues. Also, the interiors are nice now. The spirit of an old muscle car, with six piston Brembo brakes, German adaptive suspension. It’s the best of all worlds. The old criticism of - can’t stop, can’t corner - no more. It’s a comfy cruiser that can do ALL. It’s fun. It’s not setting Nürburgring records, and that’s NOT the point. All my BMWs, never made me smile as much as this. All great. This is a smiles machine.
I almost cried laughing at how much I enjoyed your, review. I never saw a review before on this car or perspective. Thanks so much. Peace from Portland Oregon USA
DODGE DEMON, I bet evey1 would enjoy to see a POV video of the strongest v8 ever built. Amazing sound, also, amazing acceleration, you might also spin it a little. Great video, anyways
Reminds me when I was stationed in Germany in the 80s and I used to drive my BMW 2002 and we would struggle to get it to 195 km/h... If I'm reading the gauges right he got up at 250 pretty quickly. Sounds weird to hear an American V8 on the Autobahn, but definitely cool
@@Areku06 brother once you drive this 392 challenger you will have a permanent smile on your face...if you ever get the chance drive the 6 speed manual model with the widebody...a BMW may have more prestige and heritage but this car will leave you permanently smiling...its badassery on wheels
@@monikhushalpuri I do like chargers with scat pack. But for the price I think would get f80 m3 or used m5. Challengers hold their value well and little overpriced on used market. I got family now so used X5m perfect all around vehicle that’s also fun. I know their different cars but currently best all around M cars are X3M and X5M
@@Areku06 oh definitely, considering family I'd go with with the X5M as well, buddy of mine has an m4 gts and it's a great car but the automatic doesn't add much to it, told him he should've gotten the manual, I personally love the naturally aspirated M cars, those you cannot beat just very fun to drive
70's muscle car footage on the Autobahn would be horrendous for your audience. Most did ~120mph (193kmh). Horrible aerodynamics, short gearing, and 4-speed manual (3-speed auto) transmission.
I have a 2020 Widebody Scat Chally...octane red....they have a eco mode for city driving so ya don't peel out all the time..lol...it is so much fun to drive and I do not see very many widebodys out on the road...it gets a lot of looks and thumbs up...oh and the mustangs and camaros rev at me alot.
I want the 392 Jeep Wrangler. I know it is not as fast but for those of us in north winter hellscape bad bad land, it is nice to have the 4x4 and still have some fun.
Thank you Max for this review. It's a great budget muscle car. My preference will be an SRT Durango with the same engine, which still can be purchased in the US. As of now, Hellcats are no longer available. They should be back in 2023 for one year only. I took one for a spin but only to 215 km/h due to heavy traffic. To listen to engine is pure delight but decided to wait for a Hellcat instead.
It's always refreshing to see how much Europeans(particularly Germans and Italians)appreciate American muscle, 💪given that many on our side of the world are not as likely to do the same. 😉
Excellent review, well done. Liked the fact that you converted the American 485 sae horsepower to European 492 din horsepower. It's a shame Europe taxes cars based on displacement.
At 8:50 when you mention how the sensitive throttle tuning from a stand still makes you "the a$$hole" every time, I completely agree!! I loved my 2015 ScatPack Challenger, it was a beast and a fantastic everyday driver, but I wished there was a button that would tame the throttle response when you just want a calm and casual drive in stop and go traffic. I got around this by putting it in manual mode and bumping it into second gear. A button with an a$$hole graphic with a slash through it to lock out second gear would have been nice, and SOOOO Dodge!!!! I also appreciate that you understand that these cars are all about FUN.
Im seriously considering getting gt awd for daily driving - i love muscle and retro cars. And we have a crazy winter and boiling hot summer in my country
If you do get it just letting you know that if the weather goes slushy to freezing overnight then the best way to unstuck the rear wheels because of ice is to put it in reverse and go back a few inches and you'll hear the ice break and the wheel will be free...these are great cars but personally I'd supercharge the awd model...I find the v6 a little anemic but then again I'm used to the torque of a v8
i'd actually prefer the ScatPak over the HellCat...partly the cost per pound, and also the supercharger whine is a layer of complexity and noise I don't need...280 kmh is fast enough for me. I have a Plum Crazy Charger R/T with the smaller 5.7, and it's a great around town car, but would like to trade up to the 6.4
Why the F*** can't every modern car manufacturer make there digital speedometer as fast and responsive as this one. It's so satisfying to see the numbers fly as you accelerate.
have a 2021 smoke show Challenger love it!! had a 2016 Hellcat as well..these cars are both awesome and a great time to drive ill be having another soon..maybe a jailbreak next time..lol LOVE THESE CARS!!!
Those aren't air intakes on the scat pack. They look like it, but they're closed off at the back of the tunnel. They are intakes on the hellcat and above though.
I bought one here in sweden 3 days ago, and man this car iis sick. The sound and the power is amazing. I cant imagine how the hellcat feels haha. But am satisfied eveytime i drive this beast. Launch control is fun 😅😅
Love the channel. Great to see American cars on the Autobahn at their limit. If we had a section of no speed limit in the USA it would be strewn with bent metal and blood. Pushed my rental M-B E Class diesel estate in Germany 14 years ago t0 140 mph with my in-laws in the back seat. They didn't have a clue:). Such fun. That would land you in jail here in California.
Clearly more muscle cars please!I d love to see a Corvette C7 Z06 because I know you ll surely have a blast with it. It might be really heavier than my Mustang GT because I can get to 260 way more quickly 🤔 There is really a problem in Europe with cars price. 40K USD and you get a V8 492 HP and in Europe you get a Renault 1.6 liter LOL
You get a Renault 1.6 for 40k which does from 0 to 100 around 50 seconds ... No one measure them for 100-200 because it takes infinity to reach and you will run out of fuel faster 😂
@@dreamcrusher112 Merica is great for freedom, cars, gas being not expensive (here it s 1.85 per liter of gas), almost taxes free ( I paid 10K euro for my 2020 Mustang GT just to have the right to put it on the road, and then 2500 euro every year for instance), I dont even mention all taxes around property, waste management, sewer maintenance, car insurance being very expensive...etc, aviation friendly, lot of space, in general a real estate market being less expensive, 2nd amendment (it s crazy here in belgium to have the right to keep weapons at home: 10 shooting session minimum per year, 30 ammos shoot per session, subscription to the federation every year circa 200 euros, medical check up and criminal record extract every year for federation license renewal)...not so good for medical stuff though which is the main hurdle for me to move in the US but apart of that I d be happy to live there 😁
Really cool, as always! I like your "not very fluid" English that helps me to understand every word you say (I'm from Argentina), hahahaha! Any chance of a Viper ACR? I'd looove to hear your impressions on that B E A S T of a car!
So I am seriously considering this exact car and I am going to be looking into it tomorrow. This was an awesome video. So nice to see a European that likes a Dodge :) Great great video. Even if I weren't interested in the car this would have been entertaining.
7:55 that mirror thing for the US cars is driving me crazy and it doesn't make any sense. It just make the blind spot even bigger especially when you change lanes.. I mean look at the right side mirror! It so peefect and you can use the whole aspect of a MIRROR!!
Great Guys, please do more of them. Maybe Challenger with manual gearbox? Yeah, that would be something, with all that groul sound, backfires. Please check mine in the mean time, You will not be dissapointed.

Mopar or no car
Mopar or no car!
Actually, and I'm not sure how public knowledge this is but mopar got most of the idea of the hemi from ford. The chamber design and valve placement came from ford several years ahead of chrysler, but chrysler did do their own changes to make the idea work with their engines and used it for marketing.
@@Punk-Jw yes in 39 when they was building for rolls Royce aircraft. Also again in 43 I think. I love my Mopar but as a car enthusiasts, I love the hobby of working on engines.
RT for me is Ray Tracing, better reflections on the paint.
first time i heard you speak!! one of my most favorite videos of yours, i love challengers... watching from Ghana
165mph and you still have another gear to go. What a ride
This car is freaking cool. You have to love it
Just drove my 2023 Last Call version today. This video was an influence for my purchase months ago.
Bilstein adaptive suspension, ZF 8 speed. He’s right about the European gearbox. The ZF 8 speed is an all time masterpiece, in its MANY applications. As a four time BMW owner, turn in and handling are great. Put that in a blender with a 6.4L American V-8, and happiness ensues. Also, the interiors are nice now.
The spirit of an old muscle car, with six piston Brembo brakes, German adaptive suspension. It’s the best of all worlds. The old criticism of - can’t stop, can’t corner - no more. It’s a comfy cruiser that can do ALL. It’s fun. It’s not setting Nürburgring records, and that’s NOT the point. All my BMWs, never made me smile as much as this. All great. This is a smiles machine.
I'm glad you are enjoying yourself. North American muscle car!
Bring more of American Muscle cars , big thanks for an awesome vid !
😮😮 it was the best video of challenger hellcat that I have ever watched 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I almost cried laughing at how much I enjoyed your, review. I never saw a review before on this car or perspective. Thanks so much. Peace from Portland Oregon USA
Not enough people drive these in Europe but too many people drive them in the US
DODGE DEMON, I bet evey1 would enjoy to see a POV video of the strongest v8 ever built.
Amazing sound, also, amazing acceleration, you might also spin it a little.
Great video, anyways
The one’s who have disliked this video are tiktok jdm fanboys .. the ones who have never driven a JDM but still talk about horsepower and torque
Reminds me when I was stationed in Germany in the 80s and I used to drive my BMW 2002 and we would struggle to get it to 195 km/h... If I'm reading the gauges right he got up at 250 pretty quickly. Sounds weird to hear an American V8 on the Autobahn, but definitely cool
Kph not mph so more like 160-165 mph and not 250 mph just for clarification sir!
Mopar is beginning to become what BMW used to be. The brand that is passionate about the joy and fun of driving.
M2 CS and M5CS still true to their core.
@@Areku06 😂🤣 sure... even as a bmw guy I beg to differ
@@Areku06 brother once you drive this 392 challenger you will have a permanent smile on your face...if you ever get the chance drive the 6 speed manual model with the widebody...a BMW may have more prestige and heritage but this car will leave you permanently smiling...its badassery on wheels
@@monikhushalpuri I do like chargers with scat pack. But for the price I think would get f80 m3 or used m5. Challengers hold their value well and little overpriced on used market. I got family now so used X5m perfect all around vehicle that’s also fun. I know their different cars but currently best all around M cars are X3M and X5M
@@Areku06 oh definitely, considering family I'd go with with the X5M as well, buddy of mine has an m4 gts and it's a great car but the automatic doesn't add much to it, told him he should've gotten the manual, I personally love the naturally aspirated M cars, those you cannot beat just very fun to drive
More muscle cars!
I'm amazed how fast that tractor was, he left you for dead at the first junction.
Big diesel and all the grip in the world haha
@@Spacken3160 it is slow af my guy
@@M3E92V8 hey a smart bmw guy, thank god you told me tractors are alow i didnt know that, thought it would win in a drag race:(
😂
The tractor went 70 mph down the road haha
the challenger looks so good
Very cool to see these American cars being driven (legally) the way they were meant to…. Fast! Love these autobahn videos :)
Watched all of your challenger vlogs and I think you had the most fun with the scat ❤
I love my scatpack here in Boulder, Colorado. The most fun you can have is burnouts, donuts, and drifting the rear end around corners.
Love muscle cars. Next time one from the 70s. It would be amazing.
70's muscle car footage on the Autobahn would be horrendous for your audience. Most did ~120mph (193kmh). Horrible aerodynamics, short gearing, and 4-speed manual (3-speed auto) transmission.
Hemi Superbird or Daytona then.
All the grunt and aero you could want.
I have a 2020 Widebody Scat Chally...octane red....they have a eco mode for city driving so ya don't peel out all the time..lol...it is so much fun to drive and I do not see very many widebodys out on the road...it gets a lot of looks and thumbs up...oh and the mustangs and camaros rev at me alot.
I want the 392 Jeep Wrangler. I know it is not as fast but for those of us in north winter hellscape bad bad land, it is nice to have the 4x4 and still have some fun.
I got my Scat up to 265 kph on the autobahn traveling back home from Bavaria. Simply beautiful. I love being here in Germany with my Scat. ❤❤❤
Thank you Max for this review. It's a great budget muscle car. My preference will be an SRT Durango with the same engine, which still can be purchased in the US. As of now, Hellcats are no longer available. They should be back in 2023 for one year only. I took one for a spin but only to 215 km/h due to heavy traffic. To listen to engine is pure delight but decided to wait for a Hellcat instead.
It's always refreshing to see how much Europeans(particularly Germans and Italians)appreciate American muscle, 💪given that many on our side of the world are not as likely to do the same. 😉
They have their place in the world.
Excellent review, well done. Liked the fact that you converted the American 485 sae horsepower to European 492 din horsepower. It's a shame Europe taxes cars based on displacement.
Now, please the Original 1970 Dodge Challenger ✌️💯
True muscle car. 💪
I love my “speed boat”! You nailed this review. The pros n the cons. No regrets buying this one
if i watch this....i can image you become an addict pretty fast.....
You've got REALLY good taste in cars! I just bought a beautiful Scat Pack Challenger.
More american cars on autobahn 🥰❤️🇺🇸
My viper 700r
At 8:50 when you mention how the sensitive throttle tuning from a stand still makes you "the a$$hole" every time, I completely agree!! I loved my 2015 ScatPack Challenger, it was a beast and a fantastic everyday driver, but I wished there was a button that would tame the throttle response when you just want a calm and casual drive in stop and go traffic. I got around this by putting it in manual mode and bumping it into second gear. A button with an a$$hole graphic with a slash through it to lock out second gear would have been nice, and SOOOO Dodge!!!! I also appreciate that you understand that these cars are all about FUN.
The sensitive pedal is so real, I used to own a grand caravan and even the pedal in that is super sensitive
Needs the shakedown and the best one ever made
Im seriously considering getting gt awd for daily driving - i love muscle and retro cars. And we have a crazy winter and boiling hot summer in my country
If you do get it just letting you know that if the weather goes slushy to freezing overnight then the best way to unstuck the rear wheels because of ice is to put it in reverse and go back a few inches and you'll hear the ice break and the wheel will be free...these are great cars but personally I'd supercharge the awd model...I find the v6 a little anemic but then again I'm used to the torque of a v8
I love these cars, they aren't as fast or sophisticated as euro cars but something so loveable about muscle cars
Muscle cars are just their to have fun and male jokes about the small german engines.
i'd actually prefer the ScatPak over the HellCat...partly the cost per pound, and also the supercharger whine is a layer of complexity and noise I don't need...280 kmh is fast enough for me. I have a Plum Crazy Charger R/T with the smaller 5.7, and it's a great around town car, but would like to trade up to the 6.4
Also hellcat don't come in manual transmission
@@DPelicanGamingyes they do
In the market for a new 2023 Challenger scat pack. This is the video I needed to see. Thank you!
Thank you for doing the challenger justice in your review
Amazing video! I thought it was me driving the wheel. Speechless. !!!
It's my twin. Same paint job and same spoiler, wide body ect. Very nice comfy car.
Why the F*** can't every modern car manufacturer make there digital speedometer as fast and responsive as this one. It's so satisfying to see the numbers fly as you accelerate.
Love the dodgers challengers is amazing 🔥❤️
have a 2021 smoke show Challenger love it!! had a 2016 Hellcat as well..these cars are both awesome and a great time to drive ill be having another soon..maybe a jailbreak next time..lol LOVE THESE CARS!!!
Those aren't air intakes on the scat pack. They look like it, but they're closed off at the back of the tunnel. They are intakes on the hellcat and above though.
Glad I found this vid. Thanks for making it. It will definitely help curb the urge to drive mine too fast!
YES! We want to see more american muscle cars!
Aaah jeez that exhaust sound
this is how you review a car and test its speed 👍🏽👍🏽
13:10, That is the reaction you would expect seeing a black Challenger flying up behind you in Germany lol
I bought one here in sweden 3 days ago, and man this car iis sick. The sound and the power is amazing. I cant imagine how the hellcat feels haha. But am satisfied eveytime i drive this beast. Launch control is fun 😅😅
11:03 In the U.S. you can have a 6-speed manual transmission which in my opinion is best of all.
That's what I have. Nothing better than rowing through them gears. Very therapeutic
Love the channel. Great to see American cars on the Autobahn at their limit. If we had a section of no speed limit in the USA it would be strewn with bent metal and blood. Pushed my rental M-B E Class diesel estate in Germany 14 years ago t0 140 mph with my in-laws in the back seat. They didn't have a clue:). Such fun. That would land you in jail here in California.
“It’s so hard to drive it like a normal person” 😂😂
392 scat pack, the hellcat with grip.
I love these american V8 musclecars. =)
Incroyable cette chaîne RUclips
I wish I could afford one. The Challenger is the coolest car on the planet.
Clearly more muscle cars please!I d love to see a Corvette C7 Z06 because I know you ll surely have a blast with it.
It might be really heavier than my Mustang GT because I can get to 260 way more quickly 🤔
There is really a problem in Europe with cars price. 40K USD and you get a V8 492 HP and in Europe you get a Renault 1.6 liter LOL
You get a Renault 1.6 for 40k which does from 0 to 100 around 50 seconds ...
No one measure them for 100-200 because it takes infinity to reach and you will run out of fuel faster 😂
@@Ruffus1338 fully agree rofl! Europe sucks...I wish I was living in the US!
@@StefBelgium America is cool for cars, not much else lol. But no hot hatches :(
@@dreamcrusher112 Merica is great for freedom, cars, gas being not expensive (here it s 1.85 per liter of gas), almost taxes free ( I paid 10K euro for my 2020 Mustang GT just to have the right to put it on the road, and then 2500 euro every year for instance), I dont even mention all taxes around property, waste management, sewer maintenance, car insurance being very expensive...etc, aviation friendly, lot of space, in general a real estate market being less expensive, 2nd amendment (it s crazy here in belgium to have the right to keep weapons at home: 10 shooting session minimum per year, 30 ammos shoot per session, subscription to the federation every year circa 200 euros, medical check up and criminal record extract every year for federation license renewal)...not so good for medical stuff though which is the main hurdle for me to move in the US but apart of that I d be happy to live there 😁
Much heavier than your Mustang. Mustang is about 3850lbs, while Challenger is about 4250lbs. 400lbs and worse Aero is gonna slow it down.
i’m planning on getting one very soon i’m hoping beginning of next year 🙏 would literally be my dream and i’ve been talking about this car for a year
Yeah everytime I leave a stop light everybody thinks I'm trying to race, in my mind I'm just easing into it.
this man goin 200kmph and casually looking back at his mate having a nice chat
Really cool, as always! I like your "not very fluid" English that helps me to understand every word you say (I'm from Argentina), hahahaha!
Any chance of a Viper ACR? I'd looove to hear your impressions on that B E A S T of a car!
The ACR is extremely rare in Europe.
Por lo menos un Viper 8.4 sea GT o T/A seria terrible... El ACR en autobahn no creo que supere los 270 km/h.
@@FEGTTTSDH Es verdad, tiene una carga tremenda...
So I am seriously considering this exact car and I am going to be looking into it tomorrow. This was an awesome video. So nice to see a European that likes a Dodge :) Great great video. Even if I weren't interested in the car this would have been entertaining.
Ok, I bought one today. Taking delivery tomorrow. This is partly your fault :)
Oh definitely, more American Muscle please! 😁💪💪
Jamboolio I see you😄
Man, we need roads like this in America...
I would LOVE to take my 2021 V8 Shaker Challenger on AutoBahn one day! I know it wont happen but nothing wrong in wishing for right?
7:55 that mirror thing for the US cars is driving me crazy and it doesn't make any sense. It just make the blind spot even bigger especially when you change lanes.. I mean look at the right side mirror! It so peefect and you can use the whole aspect of a MIRROR!!
the Scat Pack will always bee 🐝 one of my dream cars, thing is awesome
I got my shaker scat pack challenger and I love it!! It’s a beast!!
R u serious those cars go that fast! I live in the USA and just took possession of a ;2022 scat that I ordered in November
Great Guys, please do more of them. Maybe Challenger with manual gearbox? Yeah, that would be something, with all that groul sound, backfires. Please check mine in the mean time, You will not be dissapointed.
