Flat Out Stupid Fast. // 2021 Dodge Charger Hellcat Redeye Review

[@HighAltitudesCO]

Buying gas wouldn't bother me, putting tires on it every 3 weeks would.

[@andrewhigdon8346]

I know it doesn’t really compare, but I went through 5 sets of back tires in the first 10,000 miles I had my Magnum RT. The wife was thrilled. Or not. Did I care? Not. Was it a freakin blast? Dumbest question of the century.

ALWAYS choice; but for this one, that beatific split between joy and terror was just something else. "oooOOOOH GEEZ" had *special* meaning this time. 😁

[@mtcruse]

Every time I heard that supercharger whine, my soul shivered. Damn.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

It's a couple of gears meshing together. Like an old tractor transmission.

[@stephenmoxley3004]

Yet another great review, Sarah. Thanks for pointing out all of the cool features of this car. The look on your face when you were giving it the beans was priceless. My favorite feature of the supercharged Mopars is the whine of the blower. There's no mistaking that sound. I also noticed that you were totally responsible and belted-in your penguin passenger. Your reviews are fire. Keep them coming.

[@blairbrown4812]

I have long waited for this day, when Sarah would get the chance to drive the sedan that best matches *her,* her passion and personality, and I am pleased to report that the first four seconds of this video shows most graphically that my patience and faith were not misplaced.

I rented a relatively tame Charger GT for a road trip two years ago and it was fantastic. I had a 300 hp V6 that got 30 mpg. I once started singing along with the radio and then noticed I was doing 90 mph in a 65 zone. Thankfully I wasn't noticed.

[@Primus54]

Same with me but I did rent the Hemi. Drove it 300+ miles and averaged 22, which wasn’t bad considering I wasn’t driving at al conservatively! I was amazed at how comfortable it cruised on the highway.

On a side note, your hair fully told the tale of the braking test!😆

[@subarubrat]

What a car!👍😎 This car is the perfect antidote to all these crapo hybrid and electric cars. No synthesised engine noises need to be piped into this car, that engine note is raw. Big respect to them for building such a machine. A shame we will probably never see one, here in Britain.

[@kemer1977]

I can certainly vouch for the roadtrip-ability of the Charger. We had a V6 one, but size, comfort, driving dynamics were fantastic. The thing was a mile muncher for sure.

[@HighAltitudesCO]

@@ChasingDifferentAdventures it was the same situation when the Chrysler corporation owned Lamborghini back in the 90s. when they developed the viper v10 motor, Chrysler claimed that it had no correlation with any Lamborghini engines, but when it was tested they found out that the aluminum block had the exact same composition values as the (at the time) current v12 motors for the Diablo, this changed how ever in 1998 when Chrysler corporation decided to start casting there own aluminum blocks as shipping the blocks which where being casted in Italy became to expensive for the already almost bankrupt Chrysler corporation.

The annual Mecum Auction near me in Kissimmee is sponsored by Dodge. One of the attractions is a ride on a small road course in either a Charger or Challenger Hellcat. Of course, 90% of the ride is sideways in a drift and that's where this car shines. The fact that this car actually exists for anybody to purchase is enough to "almost" make me a Chrysler customer.

[@yeager17832]

The Hellcat marketing meme "This thing don't fuck around and every shift feels like you are getting drop kicked in the spine." Dodge will be needing another plant just dedicated to making these.

Compared to other Dodge interiors, this one looked a lot better than I have come to expect. The leather colour combo was nice, and it looked supremely comfortable. I would never own a Hellcat, I like them, but it would be wasted with the kind of driving I do. If I did get a Charger/Challenger, it would still be a big ol' V8, but I would be happy with the 5.7 Hemi, or the 392 (but I hate the "Scat Pack" name). You still get a lot of power to lay down, but they are less pricy at the pump and at the dealership.

It's not easy to stay below legal speeds, let's put it this way, one stab of the gas and you're in don't pass go, don't collect $200 bucks, go directly to jail territory real quick.
