Dodge has announced the first 2015 Challenger SRT Hellcat will be auctioned at the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction in Las Vegas on September 27. All proceeds will go to the Opportunity Village charity that supports people with intellectual disabilities in Southern Nevada.
Dressed in exclusive Stryker Red paint, the first Challenger SRT Hellcat will feature special badging and a Black Laguna leather interior. It also has a "HEMI painted presentation box" which includes a "VIN0001 electronic vehicle build book and video documentary, still shots, vehicle footage, an authentic Challenger SRT Hellcat embossed Laguna Leather iPad sleeve, a signed SRT Hellcat lithograph and unique 'birth certificate' for VIN0001."
Motivation is provided by a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine which produces 707 hp and 880 Nm of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission.
According to Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis, "The VIN 0001 being auctioned this year is the ultimate one-of-one collectible 2015 Dodge Challenger, as Dodge is ensuring there will never be another one like it."
