Is the Dodge Challenger Scat Pack a BETTER performance car than a 2024 Mustang GT?

The Challenger Scat Pack wide body Swinger is one of the LAST CALL special editions. On the outside you will discover the wide body setup, 20in wheels, SHAKER hood and swinger tail stripe. On the inside you will be greeted by an Alcantara and leather interior. Under the hood is a 6.4L V8 pumping out 485HP.

This car in this color with this engine and that 6-speed manual IS iconic muscle car. The only problem with it is that I am not in a position to get one right now so I really appreciate this on throttle look. Like a guy in an art museum, I am not mad I can't afford the art. I am just glad and appreciate the art was made. That is how I feel about this car. Thank you Team Raiti for another great car review. I would rather spend Back Friday watchin a Raiti's Rides video than stuck in Black Friday parking lot traffic any day. 🙂 BTW Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Such a badass looking car, Idc if theres any faster car out there. No other car has that aggressive classic muscle car look like the Challenger.

[@tb109987]

I don't understand why Dodge hasn't changed their muscle cars since 2014-15. They have been selling us the same car every year and just raising the price. I guess if it's not broken, don't fix it. But it would've been nice to get a new body style, chassis, and interior. Especially since they're killing them off after this year.

7:15 It would’ve been so nice to have quad-tips on the Challenger like you said! I’m thinking oval slash-cut quad tips just like the Mustang has. And did you know that the Challenger used to have quad tips? The 1970s models and the 2011 model had those quad tips for the Inaugural edition, but those are more square. They do the vacuum cleaner exhaust because it flows with the boxy shape of the Challenger

I'm gonna say that if you can get a Scat Pack at MSRP or lower, You get a lot for the money. No big reliability issues . Just over all great cars. When it comes to the Swinger edition Dodge could've numbered these cars. I have a F8 challenger and absolutely love it.

Hey Joe... great review and I have to agree with you zonking the black brake calipers. They should’ve color matched them, also why didn’t they put the 392 Hemi emblem on the sides of the Shaker hood scoop? If Dodge decides to go with a V6 twin turbo as their muscle car then I sadly think Mopar buyers are unfortunately going to switch to Ford to buy their V8 Mustangs.
