The 2023 Dodge Challenger Black Ghost is a limited-run model in Dodge's Last Call lineup, which commemorates the end of internal-combustion Chargers and Challengers. Dodge will build 300 Black Ghosts, all fitted with the 807-hp supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 from the Challenger Super Stock. Priced at $103,010, they're a lot cheaper than the original Black Ghost, a 1970 Challenger that recently sold at the Mecum Indy auction for more than $1 million.
The 2023 Dodge Challenger Black Ghost is understated for a Challenger, eschewing any Hellcat badges on the fenders despite its 807-hp engine.
Chrome hood pins are one of the 2023 Black Ghost's callouts to the 1970 original.
The Challenger Black Ghost comes in one color scheme: Pitch Black with a white tail stripe.
The Challenger Black Ghost is a coupe but still has a huge trunk.
The 305-width all-season tires are no match for 807 horsepower. Launches are tricky.
Gator-pattern vinyl on the roof evokes the gator-top roof on the 1970 car.
The 2023 Dodge Challenger Black Ghost is based on a widebody Challenger Redeye.
The Black Ghost gains 10 horses over the Redeye by revving to 6400 rpm rather than 6300 rpm.
The Black Ghost gets hit with a $2100 gas guzzler tax, which is one of the downsides of extracting 807 horsepower from 6.2 liters of V-8.
The 11.0-inch-wide wheels helped a Redeye equipped with Pirelli P Zero PZ4 summer rubber generate 0.98 g on the skidpad. Expect the Black Ghost's all-season tires to perform way worse.
This will be a rare badge to see at future Hellcat meetups.
The 1970 Hemi Challenger RT/SE was the original Black Ghost, a legend on the Detroit street-racing scene.
This Black Ghost is worth considerably more than the 2023 model, having sold at the 2023 Mecum Indy auction for more than $1 million.
