In the high-octane world of muscle cars, the 2023 Dodge Charger Super Bee stands as a testament to power, style, and exclusivity. A fitting final tribute to the classic MOPARS of the 60s and 70s that made the Charger an automotive icon. We spent a week in the Super Bee and here is why we think you need one in your garage.
Last Call Rarity:
The 2023 Dodge Charger Super Bee isn't just a car; it's a proclamation. With a production run limited to a mere 1,000 units, this Last Call model marks the end of an era. Owning one means securing your place in the annals of automotive history, as part of an exclusive club of enthusiasts who appreciate the rarity that comes with the Last Call badge.
Striking Colors:
Choose your poison – the 2023 Super Bee comes in two electrifying colors. The B5 Blue and Plum Crazy options pay homage to Dodge's iconic heritage while adding a modern twist. Let your personality shine as you cruise the streets in a hue that demands attention and radiates boldness.
Angry Bee Attitude:
Sporting the "Angry Bee" logo borrowed from the Scat Pack 1320, the Super Bee is a visual embodiment of aggression and performance. From its menacing front grille to the distinctive badging, this car exudes an attitude that sets it apart from the ordinary.
Widebody Wonder:
Dodge has upped the ante by introducing a Widebody version of the Super Bee. Wearing wheels and tires borrowed from the Challenger SRT Super Stock, this edition ensures maximum rubber contact with the ground. The wider stance not only enhances stability but also gives the Super Bee an unmistakable presence on the road.
Potent Powertrain:
Beneath the hood lies the heart of a beast – the untouched 6.4-liter (392 cubic-inch) SRT HEMI V8. Delivering an exhilarating 485 horsepower and 475 lb.-ft. of torque, this powerhouse ensures an adrenaline-pumping driving experience. The Super Bee inherits its performance credentials from the Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320, making it a force to be reckoned with on the streets.
Track-Tested Tech:
While the Super Bee may be a few ticks slower due to added weight, it doesn't compromise on track-tested technology. The SRT-tuned three-mode Adaptive Damping Suspension (ADS) and Drag Mode feature, borrowed from the R/T Scat Pack 1320, optimize weight transfer for the best launch traction. This ensures that every acceleration is a symphony of power and precision.
Priceless Performance:
Priced at $61,805 USD for the standard model and $67,300 USD for the Widebody version (excluding destination and fees), the 2023 Dodge Charger Super Bee offers a performance package that transcends its cost. While dealer markups may be inevitable for this Last Call model, the joy of owning a piece of automotive history is truly priceless.
In the world of muscle cars, the 2023 Dodge Charger Super Bee is a swan song to an era of raw power and unbridled excitement. Secure your place in history, buckle up, and unleash the beast – because the last call for greatness is here.
