‘Plum Crazy’ Is The Only Color You Should Consider For Your 2016 Dodge Charger Or ChallengerIf you're thinking about buying a Dodge Challenger or Charger in the near future, do yourself and everyone around you a favor by having your new car daubed in this wicked 1970s-inspired purple paint
The Plum Crazy paint job was originally introduced in 1970, and is considered one of the most iconic hues from an iconic era of muscle cars. Dodge reckons demand for the ‘nostalgic’ paint is higher than ever right now, thanks largely to its bonkers Hellcat models getting people excited about its products.
Alas, the limited-edition 2016 Plum Crazy Charger, I'm told, is sold out —you might find one on a dealer's lot!!!!
Regardless of blush, every Charger SRT Hellcat can be a blur. Among regular-production 2016 sedans, this is, quite simply, the fastest, quickest and most powerful on the planet. Period.
Hellcat makes 707 hp courtesy of a 6.2-liter supercharged V-8 that mates to an eight-speed automatic. That combo launches Hellcat to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds as the car screams to a top speed of 204 mph.

In polite company, Hellcat is surprisingly civil. Interior noise levels are low, provided the driver behaves. Sure, the low rumble of that blown V-8 is always present, but it doesn't dominate unless the driver hammers the skinny pedal. Then the sound of Hellcat's nether-regions roar will fill your world.
Select the programmable chassis's most benign drive mode, Default, and the car punishes passengers only over the most egregious pavement. There's also a Sport mode, which firms things up for a fun commute; Eco, to prove the car has a sense of humor; and Track ... hang on!
Every setting tailors engine, transmission, traction and suspension response to the mode at hand.
Beyond the supercar stuff, Hellcat is a Charger, meaning fully functional as a family sedan. Oh, it may lack the cache of exotics, but Hellcat drivers will view those more expensive exotics' cache in the rearview mirror.
