    Just financed a 2022 manual of this version. It’ll be paid off in 3 years. I don’t have any regrets. I’ve wanted this car a long time and finally decided to pull the trigger. We only live once. This car makes my daily commute to work pleasant. Nothing about this car offends me. It’s a work of art.

    Being the proud owner of a 2023 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1/1LE in a six speed manual of course. If I were to buy one if these Shakedowns, it would NEVER be in an automatic. There is no better feeling than rowing through those gears! 🇺🇸👍🇺🇸

    Dude... the shaker is FULLY functional. You can literally see the plumbing for it at 6:49 (The hose clamp in the shadows) and the air inlet it leads to at 6:55. There are vendors online that sell an airbox cover as well for this set up.

    I know this car has quite a few options, but I can't get my mind around paying $60k+. When these came out, they were in the $40k range, right? But to be fair, ALL cars are overpriced now. Middle class people are priced out.

    Just a couple of corrections for this video. Someone else already pointed out the first that the Shaker is functional, the second is the shakedown has the cross traffic back up system that works very well for backing, the pitch black only comes in standard transmission in the destroyer gray only comes with automatic, I do agree the price does make you win when you purchase it, especially. Lol😅. As long as you're able to find a dealer that is not adding to the sticker price it's not too bad, unfortunately that is difficult

For the city i'd want sometone with some agility/maneuverablity.....Unless beating that Kia to the stoplight is important...heh...though you don't need a Demon to do tTHAT heh...

    • @scottandrews4822
      @scottandrews4822 Před 2 měsíci

      Agree 1000%. The Widebody, even though it is a $6600 option, does include more than the fender flares, such as the Brembo 6 piston front / 4 piston rear brakes with 15.4" two piece rotors, the Competition Suspensuon that is adjustable, the flat bottom steering wheel, the Performance Pages, the wider 305/35ZR20 tires on all FOUR corners; and more. Just the LOOKS of it over a narrow body Challenger or Charger is worth it to me. Oh., and the Widebody comes only with the 485 horsepower 392 V8 OR ABOVE, so you're guaranteed to get lots of HP and torque as well. The 392 V8 makes 475 lb-ft of torque to fo with its 475 HP and it only gets better as you go up the line to Hellcat and more.

    • @scottandrews4822
      @scottandrews4822 Před 2 měsíci

      The only difference with the Hellcat and Hellcat Redeye models over the Widebody Scat Pack is the engine and the fact that the two Hellcat models have leather interior standard., which us not available in the Scat Pack, and oh yes - gauges with a red background and tge speedometer goes to 180.mph (Hellcat) or 200 mph (Redeye). The suspension, tires, away bars, brakes, etc are the same - as long as the Widebody is present.

      Blind Spot Monitoring is acaikable. There are no cars where the 360 degree "overhead view" camera works at speeds over about 10 mph. The BSM system is the best way to go. As soon as you activate your turn signal, the BSM system will beep if another vehicle is in your blind spot.
