2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 - Hemi® Orange Pearl (Highway 61) 1/18
  Prayers of the muscle-car faithful have finally been answered in the release of the production 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8. The new Challenger is based on the Chrysler LX-platform of the 300C, Magnum, Charger and their SRT8 versions from the Chrysler performance skunkwerks at Auburn Hills, Michigan.
The new Challenger concept was first introduced at the 2006 Detroit Auto Show, and was styled after the legendary 1970 model. A production model was announced to ship in early 2008 and dealers immediately were swamped with inquiries. Originally advertised at just $37,995 MSRP, the first production model brought over $400,000 in January 2008 at the famous Barrett-Jackson auction in Arizona. Production was limited to just over 6400 cars. 2008 Challenger SRT8's 6.1-liter HEMI V8 is the same engine as used across the rest of Dodge's high-powered SRT range. The block is even painted HEMI Orange from the original paint code from the 70s. The big V8 produces 425 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque and delivers the power direct to the wheels via the 5-speed Autostick transmission. The result is 0 to 60 mph in the low five-second range, and to a 13-second bracket quarter-mile times. The 116-inch wheelbase of the Challenger is four inches shorter than other LX-based which improves handling and reduces overall weight. The SRT8's massive 4-piston Brembo calipers and brakes with vented rotors provide the stopping power. Overall, the exterior design cues remain faithful to the popular concept car, with some alterations. From the egg-crate grille (paying tribute to the original 1970 model), to the front and rear spoilers and satin chrome fuel-filler door the lineage is obvious. The design may appear slightly bulkier then the original, but still proudly outranks anything in its class. Then or now! Highway 61 Collectibles' 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 features all-new tooling in exacting 1:18 scale. Opening doors, hood and trunk are included. Other features include highly-detailed 6.1 HEMI® engine, automatic transmission and dual exhaust. The 20-inch SRT Forged Aluminum wheels are faith fully reproduced, as are the P245/45ZR20 Goodyear tires and Brembo brakes. A sunroof lights the fully-detailed interior with flip-forward seat backs and realistic seat belts and harnesses. Highway 61 Diecast Model No. 50718 | Diecast Promotions Assortment 60163
