Dodge Challenger Sets Record April Sales!

Dodge Challenger Sets Record Sales - Bayside Chrysler Jeep Dodge

The Dodge Challenger has been having a high-point of late.  The Hellcat has been doing very well and with the addition of the Scat Pack it seems clear that Dodge is embracing a new era of muscle cars.  The fans have taken notice and thanks to this new commitment to performance, the Challenger had its best April sales ever.

In the whole of the month of April, Dodge sold 6,771 Challengers.  In comparison to a year ago, that is an increase of 32%.  It is a notch better than March which saw 6,110 Challengers sold.  To mark off this momentous occasion for the muscle car, the April sales are the most Challengers sold in a single month since the Challenger was brought back in 2008.

This is great news for muscle car fans.  Dodge has been making strides into reclaiming the old glory of the muscle car while putting a nice and modern face to it.  The sales for the overall year is still just as strong.  With 22,728 Challengers sold thus far, that puts it above the previous years by 41%.  If this continues, it may top the previous record year for the Challenger which happened in 1970.  That year sold 76,935 Challengers.  Fingers crossed and maybe, just maybe, 2015 is the year of the Dodge Challenger.

Dodge Charger Hellcat: King of the Drift

Dodge Charger Hellcat - King of Drifts

Is the Dodge Charger Hellcat the Chuck Norris of cars?  That’s a pretty odd thing to say, especially after Ram put out a Texas Ranger edition of one of their trucks.  I’m not the one asking it, however, that would be the Inquistir.  They’ve been checking out recent news and videos of the Charger Hellcat and it is hard not to see the thing as something altogether impressive, like the beard of Chuck Norris/

The Charger Hellcat, I feel, has been getting the short end of the stick in comparison to its brother the Challenger.  The Charger is the most powerful sedan available at due to the Hellcat.  With an engine pumping out 707 horsepower, there is few cars in its class that can keep up.

One of the videos they viewed to see the almighty power of the Charger Hellcat is MotorTrend’s Roadkill on YouTube.  They put the Charger up against the other two powerhouses in the Dodge family; the Viper and the Challenger.  The aim of doing this, of putting the car in competition, was to have a drift test.  It’s an impressive sight to see, but it is the Charger that wins the day.  Check out the video, with the specific segment starting at about 17:11 if you don’t have time to watch all of it.

Sadly, the Charger Hellcat has a temporary hold on order new ones from the dealerships.  Turns out that people want something this powerful.  Can’t imagine why.  Hopefully it will not be long before Dodge can met the demand placed on the Hellcats and get these bad boys out to those who want it.  I wonder if Chuck Norris has one.

A Look at Furious 7’s 1970 Dodge Charger

Furious 7 Dodge Charger

Furious 7 is a massive success.  It is one of the few movies out there to celebrate the insane stunts still capable with real cars without the over-reliance on CG.  Dodge has always had a healthy relationship with the filmmakers due to how awesome they make their cars look.  While many of their new vehicles have been prominently featured through the years, many car lovers look to Dom’s classic muscle cars.  One that is featured in the Furious 7 film is his 1970 Dodge Charger.

The YouTube channel The AficionAuto had a chance to speak with Dennis McCarthy, the vehicle coordinator for the recent films.  He agrees with the idea that CG takes away from the final product, so that means that when the filmmakers can, they are using real cars to perform some of the outrageous action setpieces.

His favorite vehicle, it turns out, is the car driven by Vin Diesel’s character Dom, which previously mentioned 1970 Dodge Charger.  Consider what the movie does with it and how it looks, I can’t blame him for being so smitten with it.  Take a look at the whole video, it is really good watch into the process of making a Fast and Furious film.
