I think both cars are great just different in their own right

2018 demon is a much more universal car, can still drive on the street, looks good, etc etc

Demon 170 - as pure racecar as a factory made car can get, doesn't look the best, probably doesn't drive very well on the street but damn is it a monster on the drag strip.

As far as values goes, I think the demon 170 is what people are gonna want to collect, the og demon will appeal more to people who know these cars well and understand driveability on a more common basis. Personally I'll probably buy an og demon in the future as opposed to a demon 170.

Which is why I don't really care for either one.
I don't like the dually fenders, and much rather go around curves at speed than accelerate for a short distance.

Could've bought a Demon for not much more than my pedestrian Challenger cost me in '18. It would've paid off financially, but the more I learned about what makes the Demon different from a regular Challenger, the less I wanted one.

We are in the wrong machine for corners 🤣🤣🤣🤣. The best cornering daily in my opinion would be the 911 turbo, after that it would probably be an m3.

Hellcat widebody handles better but it's still a boat imo.

If I were to collect cars I just don't see the appeal of the demon at its current price point over something like a viper acr or a ford gt or a gt3rs, maybe for pure muscle heads but I'm a car guy not a muscle car guy.

We've had a couple of Turbo S 911s, and similar cars. That doesn't make the Challenger corner any better...but I bet it still does it better than a Demon.

Yeah, that's what I was getting at... The front is relatively easy, get a new quarter panel, but fixing that mess in the rear is ugly....
You just section that part out.
But now you are cutting up "an investment car"
Might as well just buy a Hellcat, add whipple, and e85 and go. Probably go a hell of a lot faster too.

Only figuratively speaking, I wouldn't hack on a Demon (either one) like that.

Can't speak for the challenger but for the charger the wider tires and updated suspension give it a margin upgrade.

Demon is probably the worst street driving setup out of all the hellcats, yes its worse than the trx.

And here I thought that the wider tires on the Chargers was for added weight carrying capacity, being that people are getting heavier and tend to bring more luggage to and from the airports than ever.

Crewcabs are better.

You're goddamn right we need those wider tires for weight. #taxi

My only solace is that the charger widebody flares look like they belong on the car as opposed to the challenger that looks like the duke boys needed a tire upgrade to get traction on those dirt roads running from boss hog.🤣🤣.

Anythimg to do to help stop this beast. I have an issue with 4,200 lbs and the non- stopping abilities of the 2018 Challenger,,, HC. It want stop. Demoms,,, well, I have enough in my town home that want leave. I need a demonologist to get rid of em. They tried to kill me twice.

I'm curious where this is going??
Was just wondering who here has the filthy mind.
You are now number 2 on the list.

FYI:
Hunter is listed as number 1.
