2014 Mopar Challenger limited edition sells out
Following on from the Mopar '10 Challenger, Mopar '11 Charger, Mopar '12 300 and Mopar '13 Dart, the Mopar '14 Challenger limited-edition demonstrates how owners can personalize their rides with Mopar products — even before driving away from the dealership.
With only 100 built, the Mopar '14 Challenger is the rarest limited-production Dodge Challenger offered to date.
"The very high demand for the Mopar '14 Challenger spotlights the success of our limited-edition, Mopar-modified vehicles, and also clearly demonstrates the passion our customers have for personalizing their rides," said Pietro Gorlier, President and CEO of Mopar, Chrysler Group's service, parts and customer-care brand.
"Whether during or after the ordering process, Mopar is there to help put a personal touch on customers' rides."
Tim Kuniskis, President and CEO of Dodge Brand, added that the Mopar '14 Challenger's R/T Shaker bonnet makes it even more exclusive.
"From the Mopar '14 Challenger to the new Scat Pack performance stage kits available on Challenger, Charger and Dart, you can continue to expect great things when Dodge and Mopar team up," Kuniskis said.
Mopar '14 features
Two exterior color options and three Mopar Blue stripe options identified the Mopar '14 Challenger from the outside, while a 5.7-litre HEMI V8, rumbling beneath the Satin Black Shaker hood scoop, distinguishes the limited edition underneath.
Exterior design elements include 20 x 8-inch Gloss Black aluminium wheels with Mopar centre caps, a unique Black Vapor grille surround, black fuel-filler door, Satin Black deck-lid spoiler with Gloss Black "Mopar Design" badge and "Mopar" quarter-glass decals.
The interior is upgraded with premium leather seats featuring Mopar Blue accent thread and Mopar Omega M logos embroidered on the seat backs.
Other unique touches for the limited-edition ride include a serialized instrument panel plaque, "Mopar" branded key fobs, a custom-crafted personalized owner's kit with a Mopar '14 brochure and much, much more.
Additional customization options saw 52 customers chose the Pitch Black version, while 48 opted for the newly offered Bright White option. The traditional Shaker stripe proved to be the most popular graphic, followed by the bodyside decal and then the rocker stripe.
Top Custom Shop options chosen were hood pins, Mopar Performance badges, quad exhaust tips and the Challenger monogrammed car cover. The top-ordered Mopar Performance part was the cat-back exhaust to complement the Shaker intake.
Currently only available in Australia through third party importers, Challengers might become available from Chrysler dealerships when the Australian auto manufacturing industry closes down in 2017. The Mustang is already confirmed for the Australian market, which may compel Holden to offer the Camaro locally. If this happens, Chrysler would almost certainly bring the Challenger down under as an option for Chrysler 'pony car' fans.
