The 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 is among the most exciting vehicle debuts so far this year. The company begins accepting orders on March 27. While a traditional configurator isn’t yet available, there’s now a site where you can see the full pricing and options for the new muscle car. If you want everything available, then the total cost would be $133,421 after the necessary fees.
The Demon 170 starts at $96,666. Plus, there’s a $1,595 destination fee and a $2,100 gas guzzler charge. For that, a buyer gets a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 that makes 1,025 horsepower and 945 pound-feet of torque on E85. The output is 900 hp and 810 lb-ft on E10. Inside, there’s a spartan cabin with just a fabric-covered driver’s seat – no passenger chair or rear bench. There’s also no trunk carpet or even a light in there.
The Demon 170 is available in 14 exterior colors. Only three are no-cost options: White Knuckle, Pitch Black, and Torred. Seven are $95: Granite, Destroyer Grey, Triple Nickel, F8 Green, B5 Blue, Frostbite, and Plum Crazy. Four are $395: Octane Red, Sinamon Stick, Go Mango, and Sublime.
In addition, buyers can specify a Satin Black hood for $1,995. The hood, roof, and decklid can be Satin Black for $3,495.
The Demon 170 comes standard with forged aluminum wheels. The carbon-fiber and aluminum two-piece wheels add $11,495 to the vehicle’s price.
Of course, Dodge offers the Demon 170 with more than just a driver’s seat. Adding a passenger chair and rear bench is a $1,995 upgrade. You can opt for a mix of Alcantara and Laguna leather in black or Demonic Red for $5,995. Other interior options include a sunroof for $9,995, Demonic Red seatbelts for $395, a trunk dress kit for $295, and GPS navigation for $995.
Technically, dealers are not yet accepting orders at the time of this story’s publication. However, Brooks from DragTimes has a video alleging that one dealer has nine allocations and is asking $300,000 for the Demon 170s. Granted, this is one isolated example. Dodge intends to prioritize orders at MSRP, meaning those vehicles would go into production first.
