The seller claims that the Challenger's blasphemous number makes the vehicle "one of a kind," which is true only to the extent that VINs ending 665 and 667 would be similarly unique. The seller also says in the Craigslist ad, "This car is sure to become a collector's item and will only increase in value." There's no question that the Hellcat is a special machine, and the models just might be worth something decades into the future. Expecting that a future owner is going to care about the VIN seems pretty optimistic, though, unless this is either the first or last example, which it's not.
To the credit of this superstitious seller, the Challenger appears completely untouched with all of the warning stickers, paperwork and even the plastic still covering the seats. So, the new owner is at least getting a practically untouched example.

Maybe the owner thought he could flip this. Wonder if anyone is willing to shell out 30K more
The widebody conversion for the Challenger includes wheel-arch extensions, of course, but also a front splitter and ducktail spoiler. The components are made of fiberglass, and can be ordered separately or as part of a complete package, priced in the UK at £4,460.00 (or almost $6k at current exchange rates).
It's not the first time we've seen a Challenger with a Liberty Walk kit, mind you. But it never fails to impress, giving the Dodge an even more planted stance on the road – especially all in black and when paired with Liberty Walk's Airexx digital air suspension – whether it's packing a humble V6, the top-of-the-line supercharged Hellcat V8 or one of the Hemis in between.
Then again, if price is a concern, the cash spent on the body kit could arguably be better put towards upgrading to the next engine up. Because a muscle car like the Challenger has always been about delivering the most bang for your buck.



"This proves the 2017 Dodge Challenger is much more than a great-looking car," said Mike Dahl, head of Vehicle Safety & Regulatory Compliance, FCA North America. "It reflects our commitment to delivering exceptional occupant safety in every vehicle segment."
During the side-impact testing, the Challenger's high-strength steel body structure, combined with the careful integration of side-guard door beams, proved critical, though supplementary restraint systems also contributed to the performance. Furthermore, all trim levels for the Challenger offer driver and front-passenger side air bags as standard, as are front and rear side-curtain air bags.
As for a look into the 2017 Challenger's active safety systems, the NHTSA noted the availability of Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Blind-spot Monitoring (BSM) and Rear Cross Path detection (RCP).
Since this latest generation Challenger was introduced back in 2008, it has achieved five-star scores every time it was tested by the NHTSA - though it trails newer rivals such as the Mustang and the Camaro in IIHS crash test ratings.
