Wow, this car is a handful. I have the Scatpack Widebody in Go Mango, and it gets SOME LOOKS! It's big, it's bold, it's powerful. How does it drive? The adaptive suspension is great, although the Track Mode doesn't get as stiff as I would like. The big 305 tires will grip for days, despite the car's 4,250lbs, so it handles nicely. The adjustable steering is perfect because I don't like the stiff, hard feel in Track Mode, so I can dial it back to Street or Sport mode anytime. The steering does give pretty good feedback and feel compared to my 2016 Challenger. The engine is powerful and throaty--it has torque for days and you can enjoy cruising with very little throttle input. The large seats are comfortable and supportive (although they are a little high), and the back seat can actually fit 3 people. Mine has the adaptive cruise, rain-sensing wipers, and upgraded Alpine audio, which isn't as good as the Harman Kardon system, but definitely an improvement over the base 6 speaker setup. My only two complaints: 1. The automatic transmission (ZF 8 speed). It takes WAY too long to engaged between Park and Drive or between Reverse and Drive. Dealer and Mopar say this is "normal, expected behavior." 2. The standard Pirelli PZero All Season tires are NOT all-season. They cannot handle even a moderate amount of rain without making the car feel like it's hydroplaning. Dealer again says there is nothing they can do to help me out. It's a car I look forward to getting into and can't help but look back at. Seeing the bright orange and Shaker scoop coming down the road is really something to see. Get one of these if you are able.

I purchased a new Black 2021 Challenger Scat Pack Widebody with the manual six speed transmission. Car is pretty loaded with the Ruby Red Alcantera Leather, Sunroof, and 18 speaker Harman Kardon Surround Sound with two 10" Subwoofers. The sound system will hurt your insides, with clarity, I might add. The adaptive exhaust keeps the noise down while running around town, but it opens up out on the highway and sounds mean. The widebody look is aggressive, and intimidating, and I get "Challanged" frequently. Nevermind the haters, they don't even matter after you get behind the wheel and mash on that throttle! Tremendous acceleration, and a top end speed that will make your knuckles white. I never get tired of driving my Beautiful Black Beast

Perfect reliability at 55,700 miles

Like other reviewers, I'm a huge fan of the 2021 Widebody Scat Pack Challenger. Others have already testified to the spectacular looks and performance of this car. I have a manual transmission, and am convinced it's the reason I still have the car. Thieves broke the passenger-side window at my son's gym, but I think they were confounded by the stick! The upgraded Harman-Kardon stereo will delight any audiophile (you've gotta play classic rock in this car), but the real reason I wrote this review is to testify to the car's reliability. A Stellantis engineer told me they had a golden age in terms of build quality during 2019-2021. After that the new French parent company started farming out parts/systems to cheap sub-contractors, resulting in diminished reliability (witness the recent sharp drop in Stellantis sales). My experience says he was right -- my 2021 Challenger has been perfect. Despite having been pushed hard, at 55,700 miles it's needed no maintenance/repairs other oil and windshield wiper changes. 2019-2021 is the sweet spot for these cars. Get one if you can -- it'll put a smile on your face every time!
