A guy bought this mean-looking 2023 Dodge Charger Hellcat Widebody King Daytona but drove it just 85km (53 miles) before selling it on.
The Hellcat is a pretty rare model – and is one of just 300 made.
The vehicle is part of the ‘Last Call’ series making it a bit of a collector’s item.
The series was designed to pay homage to all the Hellcats that came before it.

The 2023 Dodge Charger Hellcat King Daytona is an impressive car
The cars tend to hold their value pretty well, particularly if it’s a rare or special edition model like the 2023 Dodge Hellcat King Daytona, or the Charger Hellcat Jailbreak.
The vehicle gets its name from the iconic 1969 Dodge Charger King Daytona raced by William Robinson.
Presented with daring Go Mango paintwork, the Dodge King Daytona is 3.5 inches wider than a standard model thanks to its widebody fender flares.
Other eye-catching additions include the SRT hood, matte black King Daytona graphics, a decklid spoiler, and – of course – the Hellcat badging.
It sits on a set of satin carbon 20 inch Warp-Speed wheels fitted with Pirelli P Zero All-Season tires.
It has just 85km on the clock
Meanwhile, the inside of the vehicle is decked out with black Nappa leather power seats with contrasting mango-colored stitching, carbon fiber trim, an Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel, and a flash infotainment system.
It’s a Hellcat, so you’d expect some power under the hood – and that’s exactly what you’ll get thanks to the supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi V8 that’s paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and can produce 807 horsepower and 707lb-ft of torque.
This example is in particularly good condition, partly down to the fact that the man who bought it only put 50 or so miles on the clock.
It’s unclear why he hardly used the car, or why he decided to sell up after just a few months of ownership, but nonetheless, it was listed on the Bring A Trailer site where it was soon snapped up by a new owner.
Here’s hoping the Hellcat gets to spend a bit more time on the road in future.
