Hi and thanks for letting me join. I just bought a a 23 Hellcat. I have a question for you owners out there. What is the difference between 2023 challenger hellcat and 2023 challenger hellcat widebody? I just can't seem to get a lot of info on the net.

History records,
The 2nd Civil War was started by two car nuts on a car forum, disagreeing.

You think that 74 is crazy...I owned these 3 Challengers and the beige is the craziest color scheme. It as a 1 of 2 built 440 with a shaker hood. This was an AT...the other a 4spd. It was televised going thru one of the auctions and bid o $175k....didn't meet reserve, I never got anywhere near that when I sold it.

About 6000$

And a couple hundred extra lbs!

The NB, IMHO, looks much better. The original cars did not have flared fenders, and all the modern cars did not either, until the WB. The WB is a special car built for a specific market, and lots of people are thrilled and are buying them.

But the lower top speed is free.
