Is the Dodge Challenger Demon the BEST Muscle Car ever BUILT?

The Demon is the type of car that only gets produced once in a lifetime, and Dodge just made them only in 2018 & just 3,300 examples of this special Challenger. Under the hood is a fire breathing 6.2L supercharged V8 that is pumping out 840HP & mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. On the outside you will find a unique Air Grabber hood, 18in forged wheels, Nitto Drag radials, and the Demon badge. On the inside you will find the Mopar premium interior, 8.4in infotainment system & performance pages. Is the Dodge Challenger Demon the BEST Muscle Car ever BUILT?

@chuckfink8239---Joe Raiti having fun in these cars he abuses is sickening. He abuses these cars that are not his. He does not "deserve" to have fun. His having "fun" is way down at the bottom of anyone's priority list. I admire people that actually work hard and sweat and are coping with a stressful job. Don't admire or care for a guy that "reviews" cars and makes videos and puts out information that's already been published in many car magazines.
