You got to respect a lady that uses very descriptive terms like "cockbag". There's a limited production electric muscle car that you Might be interested in. It's the Hyper Car offered by Ariel Motors. It's a two person electric street legal "race car" with a turbine range extender.

[@merrillquintrell8133]

I own a 2019 Charger Scatpack, and after three years it still never fails to bring a ridiculous grin to my face every time I drive it. Cons: The neighbors don't exactly like the sound of cold starts early in the morning. Pros: The engine power and torque coupled with that brilliant 8 speed automatic. It shifts like a dual clutch, and it even make those little "burip" sounds when it shifts. Oh and lastly, thank you Dodge for retarding the timing a bit and tossing in a little extra fuel on overrun. That crackle and burble NEVER gets old. Thanks for a great car review Miss Sarah!

[@user-ex9zm7bg3x]

I just bought a Challenger SP and was fully prepared to take it straight to the muffler shop. But no need! The car sounds beastly bone-stock.

[@fredericdeblois]

Hi Sarah, I don't understand why your car review videos are less popular than those of your restorations, they are fun, full of information, especially when it's a sports car like this Dodge Charger. The ideal is to continue to have both, especially for you, it takes you out of your garage.

[@ZackaryMac]

You have unique and entertaining car reviews, Sarah. I always look forward to them.

[@FixingstuffwithJoe]

I have a 18 SRT 392. I have been telling people the same thing. The power, braking, handling the 392 charger is the way to go. Hellcats can overpower the car too quickly.

[@davestewart9146]

I was lucky enough to grow up with the 60s and early 70s muscle cars, I totally agree with you Sarah, EVs will never be muscle cars, that’s why I love my 2013 Challenger, great video 👍😁

[@gearheadgregwi]

Truth. Snag these V8 beasts while you can. I fear the next two generations just aren't interested anymore. Something religious about a fishtail burnout!!

[@stevenabrams5811]

I am looking for an old 64 chevele with a 4 speed on floor with a 327 engine. Because it will scream down the road.

[@mobaby1979]

I love muscle cars. But I also see muscle cars and their fans as dinosaurs. The key is to not buy one and instead just admire from afar while the delusional dinosaurs continue to spend 60k on them.....in 2022 lololol. Sentimentalism can be PRICEY :)

[@DCNewsom42]

I guess I’m in the dark a little. What’s happening with muscle cars?

[@johncarter1137]

The thing I like about the Scat Pack Charger is the fact that you can load it up with 4 people and take a cross-country trip in comfort. That's not really possible with a Camaro or Mustang.

Or Challenger. If you're 6' or better an adult's not going to be sitting behind you (happily).

I agree with everything you said. I love my 2015 SRT 392! I got it before the prices got so crazy and chose it over a hellcat. I've always done my own work to it, drive it daily and win shows in it on the weekends.

I wish RAM would drop this in the Rebel for those buyers that don't want or can afford the TRX. Would spice things up in their half ton lineup. Great review, BTW.

[@sadmarinersfan8935]

It blows my mind that your reviews are not more popular like not only do you go way more into detail then most would ever go but you do it while also being extremely funny and entertaining without losing any of the important information and details fantastic work as always Sarah on a side note it really is sad to see this car being gone soon

[@bridgecross]

As much as I love driving my Hemi, as soon as I heard the V-8 was going away it became a garage queen and weekend warrior. Need to keep it around as long as I can. Nothing like one to drive.

Heat shields for the anti-sway bar bushings, great idea. I love all the details that you point out Sarah. Little things like that matter and I don't think I would have learned about it on anybody else's channel. The time you spend showing us the bottoms of the cars is really worth it!

Fabulous review. I’m with you on the Scatpack vs. Hellcat. Even as heavy as this car is, it seems to be perfectly balanced between power and handling with the wide track. Really liked the forward-facing camera view from the rear… a new feature that takes in the full cabin feel. Creative! Thanks as always, Sarah. 👍👍👍

[@fresnokidsr]

My brain thinks that the weight of the car would enhance the fun of this car to drive on the windy roads because with the wider stance the weight will help it stick in the corners with this 305 wide tires a heck of a lot better

[@bruceshenkel6991]

That's because it's meticulously engineered .

[@mistamaog]

The biggest disservice they've done to this car is never giving it a manual option

[@Simey2wheels]

Your face when gunning it, explains all we need to know about this car. We all want one now!

[@antoinelee-thomas9536]

If only this car came in a manual transmission and in Hellcat format, this would be even more fun to buy. Yes, I know you can manual swap this using the exact manual transmission gearbox, shifter, and parts in the Charger, but it's not the same if it doesn't come fresh out of the factory assembled together.

[@jimcondray4632]

Spot on with the comments about EV's never making the driver feel the same. There is just something about the connection between the driver and the machine. Imagine Rush's "Red Barchetta" but with an EV. Nope, doesn't work like that.

[@pmscalisi]

EVs are just different animals. They can be fast but they still use electric motors.

[@wild_lee_coyote]

Up above is a car that will get you singing Scatman while the car burbles and rumbles along to the beat. I do love how clean that engine is.

[@linhunnicutt6556]

That exhaust note is glorious!!!

[@joecovey2235]

Having owned a Challenger Hellcat Widebody for 4 years, I do love it, but you are right, the 392 is a more usable amount off power, it takes no time at all to be in very illegal, crazy ass speeds in the Hellcat. You are right, it's the end of the muscle care era, one reason I've held on to my car for this long and likely much longer. EVs cannot and will not replace the V8 we all have known and loved for years. Sad to see it coming to an end.

[@katobb123]

Love your reviews and I'm a little surprised on your low " Beans" score. Throughout the review you are constantly smiling and thoroughly enjoying yourself. I just bought a 2022 Challenger Scat Pack 6 speed manual and it is the most satisfying and enjoyable car I've ever owned. I totally agree that stepping up to a Hellcat would require some serious driving moderation! These will definitely bite you if you get stupid but completely satisfying! You rock!

[@randymartin5521]

Love how excited you get when you're road testing this beast. Like a kid in a candy store.😂 I had to replay it a couple of times and laughed as hard each time.

[@jeffpowers1199]

Many reviews agree with you, preferring the Scatpack over the Hellcat. I've owned a Challenger Hellcat and now have a Charger Hellcat Daytona so I know something about the Hellcat. I just love them. The feeling you get driving a Hellcat simply cannot be matched. Soooo much fun.

[@hybridstoatdragon]

11:44 i drive now, and i agree. im absolutly in love with that engine bay. its SO CLEAN. as a robotics and mechanics engineer. they did EVERYTHING they knew how to clean the cars v 8 engine up and make it WORK.

[@joshlambrecht2357]

Only a mechanic thinks to comment on the esthetic and ergonomics of an engine compartment. Last time I remember seeing a car review where the writer thought the engine bay was nice to look at was in late 1984 Car & Driver in a long term test of the 85 Volvo 740 Turbo. I appreciated this quite objective review of a car I might hope to own someday.... maybe...in my dreams. Nice work Sarah.

[@RXRSawdustStation]

I fully appreciate your review and your admiration of that superior automotive package! My first vehicle was a 1968 Charger. Thanks, Sarah!

[@tomheringer2047]

The 68 Charger was the bomb! I graduated high school in 1971 and our school's parking lot was full of muscle cars. The 68 Charger definitely stood out.

[@RunTowardsDanger]

As a Hellcat owner I can say there is no better choice than a Hellcat unless you pick up a Demon or Superstock. I loved all my Chargers and Challengers before I got my hellcat, but no lower trim can compare.

[@JayLepisto]

The only thing better than the burble of this V8 is Sarah's enthusi-gasm for this package. Kind of expected to hear more tire squealing and maybe some glass breaking like in "Deadman's Curve". Loved this review and the honest, yet spicy language to describe this truly American driver's car.

[@zalleywaalley8227]

That print on the lower engine cover, is actually air veining. It actually helps the car go faster. Lol

[@cnchess]

I agree. The Scat Pack Widebody is the way to go for a Charger. It is a sweet setup I will feel sad to see it go. But, my 2010 Charger is still going strong, so I will probably be able to get my hands on one of these later on and offend EV owners for many years to come.

[@gerdogstenc2534]

The black cans at the back of the exhaust are resonators and the silver cans at the front are the mufflers. Those holes with nothing in them are most likely used during assembly or manufacturing. Great review!!

[@TarmenAmzarian]

Nobody will hate you for preferring this, Sarah; it's the pinnacle of the N/A Dodge muscle car. The only things it misses to be legendary are a Challenger body and a manual transmission.

[@tomrussell7225]

First time seeing your review and my score for you is a 10, excellent job. You are the first reviewer of this car that finally put this car on a lift to share what the under carriage is all about. I just received my 2022 Challenger SP/WB Orange and you are spot on. Thanks.

Unfortunately you're right. No more muscle cars. But we will have an electric car equivalent. I don't know who will make it or where. But I know they will be all about speed, drifting (in all directions including backwards) and loud electric motors.... it will be a different spice.

[@j2kinflarc768]

[@Hobbies4Hire]

Great job on the video Sarah! Thanks for making it. I will always love the growl of a V8, but that new Daytona concept is the most CyberPunk car I have ever seen. It's like what my 12-year-old self would have imagined the future of cars to both look and sound like. Don't know if i would consider it a "muscle" car, but I'm willing to reserve final judgement until my favorite reviewers like you get their hands on production models.

[@akaydogan]

Love the joy and exuberance you display when driving this. I drive variations of this car on the job all the time and I have come to think of them as the most finely refined product from the buggy whip manufacturer of the 21st Century. Those who purchase these (who are not dirt bags) will use them as hobby cars for weekend drives in the back roads and conversation pieces at cars and coffee events. I just respectfully disagree with your statement that EVs cannot be muscle cars. Even some of the most mundane EVs can outperform this vehicle in virtually any aspect, and we are still must at the beginning of EV development. Regardless, this was another fun, fact-filled car review from one of the best car channels on KZbin!

[@pmscalisi]

EVs aren’t muscle cars and never will be because, well, they’re electric. Doesn’t matter if it goes from 0-60 in two seconds it’s still a car with electric motors Can you comprehend that?

[@akaydogan]

@@pmscalisino need to be hostile. Sarah has her opinion and I have mine. Webster’s defines muscle car as “a group of American-made two-door sports coupes with powerful engines designed for high-performance driving." I guess we can argue about engine vs motor, in the end it’s about power and performance and EVs rule.
