2018 Challenger Hellcat Widebody

[303 Mopar]

Today Dodge announced the 2018 Hellcat Widebody.  Basically it is a Hellcat with the Demon fender flares which allow 305/35 Pirellis on all four corners and 20 x 11" wheels.  Currently Hellcats come with 275/40's.  This has been the big compliant of Hellcat owners, it needs more grip.  The new Hellcat Widebody starts at $71,495, or $14k less than a Demon with plenty of them to choose from.

It would look much better if they just flared the fenders and quarters vs this fender flair trend that everyone is calling a "widebody"

  I hear ya!  sort of like .." Attention K-Mart shoppers..." 

In addition I can see that being an area that will rust out as they get older?

I'm liking it.  It needed wider meats soooo bad.  This is going to really help the car.

I like the hood much better than the Demon ! LOVE the interior! Especially the dash!    That guy driving needs to find the gas pedal already! Sheesh!

That looks terrible and cheap in my opinion

I like the flares. Too bad it didn't come in all wheel drive. I could see a lift kit in its future!!

I HATE the way the front marker lights look on the fenders - how they kinda angle into the flares.  It looks like such an afterthought, like, "Oh, shit - what do we do about this...?"

I also kinda agree that the "glued on" look of the flares is off-putting for a car that Dodge has otherwise done so well with.  The stance is awesome, but the way they simply tacked on parts to get it is a little off-putting.

But now I want a Jeep Trackhawk anyways, so no sweat off my back...

If they did it similar to what they did to the Challenger in Furious 6 it would have been a bit better.

They could have made it wider without flares. The one thing I dont like with the new Challengers is that they kinda look high and narrow, gets better if the are lowered but a slightly wider and lower body would look better IMHO.

I agree, reminds me of the bushwacker flares I had on my Wrangler. I hate the way it breaks up the body line on the front fenders.
