2021 Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock

The 2021 Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock is the special edition, SRT-tuned version of the Dodge Challenger. Developed for racing at the dragstrip but still road-legal, the 2021 Challenger SRT Super Stock bridges the gap between the Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye and the Challenger SRT Demon and combines a selection of elements from previous Hellcat, Demon and Demon Redeye models to create arguably the most desirable Challenger yet and quite possibly ever.

The name is derived from the 'Super Stock' class in drag racing. Traditionally, these vehicles looked like ordinary passenger cars, but were highly modified racers under the shell. Starting with the typical HEMI V8, Dodge's engineers have liberated a few more bhp from the 6.2-litre unit with the addition of a enormous supercharger. Peak power is rated at 807bhp, and torque is also suitably massive at 707lb/ft.

This power is sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission, whistling the Super Stock up to 60mph in 3.2 seconds and on to a limited 168mph top speed. New for the Super Stock were a number of chassis upgrades that Dodge hoped would help contain some of the fury that, in standard models, can occasionally overwhelm the cars equilibrium. These include adaptive Bilstein dampers calibrated specifically for this model, whilst the 18'' wheels are wrapped in radial semi-slick tyres that are 11'' wide. It also packs a set of Brembo brakes and a limited-slip differential. Encasing all this chassis development is wider bodywork attempting to contain the car's substantial rubber footprint.

The car presented here is a 2021 Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock, with just 9,000 miles from new and in virtually 'new car' condition throughout. The slow-down of the production/supply-chain that came with the pandemic meant that the factory output of the Super Stock was curtailed somewhat, making it now a rare car - there were 3,300 examples of the Demon built, compared to just 192 Super Stocks built in 2020, the first year of its production. The 2021 Super Stock offered here is just one of 559 built in that year. Indeed, so few were available that muscle car enthusiasts in 2022 were left wondering for the preceding two years if the Super Stock really existed beyond mystical appearances on the internet!

Pundits who follow such stats say the Super Stock's multi-year production will top out at less than the Demon's one-year production run, potentially a good thing for Super Stock owners. This would seem to be the case as, we understand, buyers in America of used 2021 Super Stocks are now paying a premium over the original list price, this often being a six-figure amount.

Again, we are informed that this is just one of only a few examples in this signature-colourway of TorRed (aping the famous 1970s colour of Hemi Orange) and is, as we understand it, the only Super Stock currently in the UK and (we believe) in Europe. The car was personally imported by our vendor, is fully UK-registered with duties paid and is all clear on CARFAX, having had just a single US-owner and a full service history. The specification is huge and too large to detail here but will be made available to interested parties.

This is an extremely rare and exciting opportunity, especially in the UK, to acquire a simply amazing American muscle car, offering 'collector' quality and unbelievable performance.
