What an awesome, awesome car! I know this is one of your older videos, but I'm watching it to re-live your excitement, because I just got a 2018 R/T Scat Pack Shaker in Octane Red with 4,400 miles. I drove 700 miles from Tennessee to Trenton, NJ to buy this car. I've owned it one week now, and I still can't believe this car is sitting in my garage. Absolutely the most exciting car I have ever driven.
6:50 holy mackerel, monster truck driving by with a bunch of people loaded up out back on the bed. American car dealership for sure! : the whole scenery just screams America :) awesome, greetings from germany.
Just got MY Challenger RT Scat Pack two weeks ago. I love it. If you are thinking of purchasing one DO IT !! I’ve wanted one since 1975 The only thing I will have to get over is no spare tire. You get an air pump and a can of goooo Amazon can fix you up with a tire kit and jack. The dealers can also if you want one.
Nice color on the Scat Pack!!! I plan on getting one some day. Boy she sounds good when you cranked it up!!! What a great day to buy a car and looked over and see BIG FOOT Monster Truck!!!
Great video! Way to capture the excitement of the moment. I enjoyed the moment with you! I love your lady’s reaction when the car starts up fo the first time... ear to ear grinning! That color is one of my favorites on the Challenger. Love the fact that you got a 6 speed, too. Thanks for sharing and ENJOY!
Awesome ride sir!! I've got a Scat Pack Shaker in Redline Tricoat, but man that Octane Red looks sharp. Especially in the part of the video when the sunlight hits the paint directly, it really is beautiful. Congratulations and welcome to the Mopar community!
Congrats man! I love the manual transmission. It goes along great with the "retro" theme of the scat packs. By the way, that color really adds to the retro old school look. I love it, sweet car man!
Awesome what a feeling that you and your wife experienced. Welcome to the Mopar and Challenger family. Now let's see how long before you mod that beast of a machine. CONGRATULATIONS
Love those crate bumper stops. I think they look amazing. Dodge needs to just go ahead and build those on permenantly or pain them on. Nice color Scat Pack.
YES!! Absolutely NICE Joe!!!!👍👍👊🏻 The things we miss out on here in New Zealand😢 Great videoclip and thanks for sharing👍👍 Enjoy and all the best Kim and Joe!! 🤚😊
Know the feeling bro. Just bought one, 17 model. Love It! Head Turner and intimidating looking. Always wanted one sense they came out. Beautiful, enjoy.
Bought it!! You just can't appreciate the color until you see it in person. Hey, I filled up with regular gas, use cruise control, went the speed limit (gasp) and got 28.5 mpg!! Enjoy!!
Congrats, real nice! The break in period is for the rear mostly. Due to it being a manual, I would take it easy on her. Otherwise, the annoying "rear end whine" may show up.
1343 found ya thanks to Gregory Salvatore. Pusa studios has a video with a trainload of those long wind turbine blades on it. Exciting seeing your new Mopar with ya. Congrats note is a nice touch.
congratulations on the scat pack. You will have lots of fun once you break it in. I would take it easy until you get 1000 miles on it to break in that transmission and engine. Nice color choice and it sounds great.
Looks great, sound great, performs like champ, what more do you want...Congrats! We rarely see that color its very nice. New Subcriber here. Cheers from Hemi Mike
Congrats bud welcome to the mopar fam. My grandfather just bought a left over 2017 a couple months ago. It's red with the leather, trunk stripe, and automatic. It also has the dynamics package which includes the hellcat brakes and wheels :) We got a 10k discount.
Joeysixtysix yeah it definetly helps. Better grip while accelerating and better braking. But don't worry about it. The scat pack is still reallly good the way it is.
Wow! What a trip! Apart from the car, of course, my favorite part was those huge trucks loaded with Fred Flintstone bones that were no doubt in route to Bedrock. Hey, it's been so cool keeping up with you from the first video you made when you ordered her. I actually seen a few other of your early videos (you shaving your head...you shaving your beard...A baby blue Gremlin) and I must say that those old videos, are kind of like listening to any of the albums Pantera released prior to "Cowboys From Hell". Brutal! (If you haven't a clue do an "Early Pantera" search here in RUclips) Seriously, I'm so happy for you and your girlfriend. I know you're in love now, but the best part, that love just doesn't go away! My wife just walked by asking "Did he pick up his car?" Show it to her and she loves it! She say's "Congratulations!" Enjoy the hell out of that beautiful beast, and I'll be here to keep up with you!
I actually owned a vinyl copy of Pantera's 'Projects in The Jungle' in the early 80's. Yes, totally different animal lol. I'm a big Metal fan and I was a vocalist in a thrash metal band that released one album way back in the day. Thank you so much for your kind comments!
You are welcome, and are you kidding me? Someone who knows what I'm talking about when I mention "Pantera". LOL! At 58, lots of people think I'm crazy because I still listen to what I did when I was a teen and in my 20s. I grew up in San Francisco and back in the early 80's so Exodus, Metallica, Megadeth, Testament, Possessed, Death Angel were the bands I'd love and go see. My brother got smacked in the head by a drumstick Lars threw into the crown. Cut his forehead, I picked up the stick and awarded it to him. Kind of a purple metal heart. Love 'em! Still love my 70's bands too...Scorpions, UFO, Van Halen, AC/DC, Boston, and of course Sabbath. I went to school but dropped out before I got my communications degree. I grew up loving Top 40 radio, especially those fast talking DJs and remember the very first song that hooked me, "Sherry" from the Four Seasons played on KYA in San Francisco. LOL! Yeah, too much information. So, you gonna give up the name of your band? Maybe I can track it down on Amazon.
We have alot in common! I love all that same stuff. My band was called Lese Majesty. We were signed to Ironworks records (late 80s). I sometimes see our album on eBay and a few obscure metal sites online. There is a newer band with the same name now (not metal).
Ordered on July 10th and Got it Sept. 16th. BUT they didn't start building 2018's til July 24th or 25th so those first couple weeks didn't really count. I think they say 7-8 weeks average which seems just about right.
Great looking car! It makes me happy to see the owner happy and having a good time. That's what life's all about. I can't wait to buy my 392 scat pack Challenger. The only question is automatic or manual?? Hmmm
Congrats again this is the second time I watched this video. Now what you have had it a while does the wife want to drive it a lot? I know the gas bill is hard to get use to!
She loves driving it! It actually gets better MPG than I thought it would. High 20s highway and mid teens around town. Of course it's hard to resist having a little fun which brings those numbers down quite bit.
Do you remember what date you ordered your Scat and what is the manufactured date. Look on the drivers side door, there's a tag, look for MFG date, it will look something like this 082512. Thanks.
Wow a bad ass ride. I keep having people tell me not to get one and waste my money. F them I am going to get one at the end of the year when I hope they are a little less $. It’s my money and I think they are a bargain for the price and the amount of horses you get.
Yes, mine has the Scat Pack animation. I think you have to have the Scat Pack appearance group to have the animation or get the Tazer thing and you can put it on there. I thought the 2018s had one touch up windows but mine does not. The wording on the 2018 Challenger fact sheet is kind of confusing as to whether or not its has them.
Ordered our Scat Pack on 7/10 and received it on 9/16. They didn't begin production on 2018s until July 24th or 25th so a couple of those weeks the factory wasn't even up building them yet. If the dealer gave you a VIN # or VON # you can go to the live chat on Dodge.com for updates on your car or call 1-855-778-8326
now that is a proper car! congratulations you guys. there is just no way around American Muscle in terms of looks, power, performance and of course sound. and the overall appeal is hard to match. (oh, and get rid of the prius !) :)
6 speed manual and that color is killer! Great choice - congrats!
Thanks man!
What an awesome, awesome car! I know this is one of your older videos, but I'm watching it to re-live your excitement, because I just got a 2018 R/T Scat Pack Shaker in Octane Red with 4,400 miles.

Beautiful car. Nice color. That’s great you had a nice drive back with your new car.
Picking my SRT 392 6 speed manual up tomorrow! So excited! Great video, that’s a beautiful car you got.
4 years later... I'm just seeing this and still happy for you, haha. The icing on the cake is you riding in a prius to pick it up😎
6:50 holy mackerel, monster truck driving by with a bunch of people loaded up out back on the bed. American car dealership for sure! : the whole scenery just screams America :) awesome, greetings from germany.

Congrats right back at ya man!
Awesome ride sir!! I've got a Scat Pack Shaker in Redline Tricoat, but man that Octane Red looks sharp. Especially in the part of the video when the sunlight hits the paint directly, it really is beautiful. Congratulations and welcome to the Mopar community!
Cool man, love those Shakers, look so cool. Thanks for the comment!
Nothing like having a Raminator steal your Scat Pack thunder lol!! Congratulations on a sick purchase!!!
Congrats man! I love the manual transmission. It goes along great with the "retro" theme of the scat packs. By the way, that color really adds to the retro old school look. I love it, sweet car man!
I'm so happy for you my friend. Congrats on the car. Have some great times with that car!
Thank you so much!
Awesome what a feeling that you and your wife experienced. Welcome to the Mopar and Challenger family. Now let's see how long before you mod that beast of a machine. CONGRATULATIONS
I'm wanting to do a couple of mods ...she's a little hesitant lol.
Love those crate bumper stops. I think they look amazing. Dodge needs to just go ahead and build those on permenantly or pain them on. Nice color Scat Pack.
YES!! Absolutely NICE Joe!!!!👍👍👊🏻 The things we miss out on here in New Zealand😢 Great videoclip and thanks for sharing👍👍 Enjoy and all the best Kim and Joe!! 🤚😊
I will be driving to KC, Mo. from Houston, TX. to see the family. The state is beautiful with rolling hills.
Know the feeling bro. Just bought one, 17 model. Love It! Head Turner and intimidating looking. Always wanted one sense they came out. Beautiful, enjoy.
Congratulations!
Beautiful Challenger congratulations!
I'm looking at one exactly like this today!! Beautiful!!
Very cool!
Bought it!! You just can't appreciate the color until you see it in person. Hey, I filled up with regular gas, use cruise control, went the speed limit (gasp) and got 28.5 mpg!! Enjoy!!
Congratulations that Octane Red is rare in California where I live. It is a sharp looking car with the stripe.
Thanks! Dodge is really doing some great colors these days.
Beautiful Mopar! Hope you've been enjoying it! I have a '17 SXT Plus in octane red with the blacktop package, amazing color! Thanks for sharing!
Taking a prius to go get a challenger...
Offsets the bad gas mileage lol.
A Prius with a radar detector. Lol. Nice Challenger BTW. My 2019 Widebody Scat Pack is the same color.

Congratulations that is one beautiful beast !!!
Thanks man, I appreciate the positive comment.
Congrats! Geez I got excited watching you get close to the car.
I still like to go back and watch/re live the moment :)
Congrats, real nice! The break in period is for the rear mostly. Due to it being a manual, I would take it easy on her. Otherwise, the annoying "rear end whine" may show up.
Cool, thank you for that information!
welcome to the mopar and the scat pack family bro nice

Awesome car congrats on the new member of the family
Thank you sir.
Great color choice, think about adding the R/T Modern Hood Decal for extra nostalgia. Enjoy.

congratulations on the scat pack. You will have lots of fun once you break it in. I would take it easy until you get 1000 miles on it to break in that transmission and engine. Nice color choice and it sounds great.

Sweet! I wish I had ordered the dynamics package.
Joeysixtysix yeah it definetly helps. Better grip while accelerating and better braking. But don't worry about it. The scat pack is still reallly good the way it is.

Joeysixtysix how long did it take to deliver from the day u ordered it ?? Plz respond
Ordered on July 10th and Got it Sept. 16th. BUT they didn't start building 2018's til July 24th or 25th so those first couple weeks didn't really count. I think they say 7-8 weeks average which seems just about right.
Awesome bro 👏
Looks great man. Congrats. You will enjoy. Lol :-)
Thank you, love this car so far!
Kool. A good friend of mine had a Scat Pack and loved it. Considering he is a Mustang Guy. Lol
lol, nice!
Nice ride!
Thanks for the positive comment!
Great looking car! It makes me happy to see the owner happy and having a good time. That's what life's all about. I can't wait to buy my 392 scat pack Challenger. The only question is automatic or manual?? Hmmm
other than the backup screen and battery issue have you had any other issues with the vehicle?
No other issues other than neighbors complaining that it's too loud lol.
Love the color
Yeah me too, very happy with it.
Congrats again this is the second time I watched this video. Now what you have had it a while does the wife want to drive it a lot? I know the gas bill is hard to get use to!
She loves driving it! It actually gets better MPG than I thought it would. High 20s highway and mid teens around town. Of course it's hard to resist having a little fun which brings those numbers down quite bit.
id like the 1320 or redeye challenger,in my disabled poverty state of mind etc...
Its awesome
Picked up mine yesterday! Its sweeet!
Congratulations! Lovin it so far.
Nice Video I am waiting to get mine, it's on order. 392 TA in a go mango.
4 speeds are fun,but im an old bracket drag racer,an must have a good automatick..lol..
I just bought a 2018 charger scatpack in octane red, with dynamics package, so hellcat rims and breaks.
Nice!!!! I bet it's beautiful!!!!
Joeysixtysix it is! Black rims and accents. Ill update my avatar. Check it out
Wow! That looks great! Such a great color.
We oughta do a photo shoot or a video with the twin 2018s
That would be cool!
Whats that radar detector doing in that prius?😂😂😂😂
I had ordered it for the Challenger and I just couldn't wait to try it out so in the Prius it went lol.
Do you remember what date you ordered your Scat and what is the manufactured date. Look on the drivers side door, there's a tag, look for MFG date, it will look something like this 082512. Thanks.
Ordered on 7/10 I think manufacture date was 8/15 but I'll have to check.
have fun
Too much fun already, I'm gonna get in trouble.
grats man, beautiful car
looks like where they filmed part of ,...twister, back in 1996 or so...
Congratulations on your scatty I 🚗 120 miles to get my beast also too lol.
Well worth the drive!
I flew 1600 miles to get mine. What a ride home, we'll worth it.
Mine was at the dealer right up the street, lol
Wow a bad ass ride. I keep having people tell me not to get one and waste my money. F them I am going to get one at the end of the year when I hope they are a little less $. It’s my money and I think they are a bargain for the price and the amount of horses you get.
Just do it! The car is great and well worth the $. You will love it.
Does yours have the Scat Pack logo animation on startup, or one-touch up windows? I just got my 2018 and it has neither--pretty strange.
Yes, mine has the Scat Pack animation. I think you have to have the Scat Pack appearance group to have the animation or get the Tazer thing and you can put it on there. I thought the 2018s had one touch up windows but mine does not. The wording on the 2018 Challenger fact sheet is kind of confusing as to whether or not its has them.
They only come with one touch down. One touch up is considered dangerous by most manufacturers
Congratulations, love it! I ordered a 2018 Charger SRT 392 on 10SEP2017, anyone know how long it may take until delivery?Cheers!
Ordered our Scat Pack on 7/10 and received it on 9/16. They didn't begin production on 2018s until July 24th or 25th so a couple of those weeks the factory wasn't even up building them yet. If the dealer gave you a VIN # or VON # you can go to the live chat on Dodge.com for updates on your car or call 1-855-778-8326
Noted, thanks Joey.
now that is a proper car! congratulations you guys. there is just no way around American Muscle in terms of looks, power, performance and of course sound. and the overall appeal is hard to match. (oh, and get rid of the prius !) :)
HAHA, She had the Prius before we met. She loves it. I tolerate it lol.
Congratulations, only in America raminator lol
Nice Vid Congrats....How do you feel about it now a year later?
After you ordered it how long did it take to come?
