The third generation Dodge Challenger has been around since 2008 and it’s based on an ancient platform that can be tracked all the way back to the W211 generation of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, whose production started in early 2002.

However, the FCA-owned brand has waved its magic wand over the muscle car, keeping it competitive against the likes of the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro, managing to somehow outsell both of them in Q3 of 2019.

The Challenger can be had in various specs, and was allegedly supposed to be joined by an ACR variant. Inspired by the Viper and Neon that wore the same moniker, it was reported that it might arrive with a weight saving of around 400 pounds (180 kg), re-tuned suspension, bigger brakes, front splitter and rear wing similar to the Viper ACR, plus two engine options: the 6.4-liter V8 and the supercharged mill found in the Hellcat.

That rumor was recently shattered by a Dodge spokesperson, who told AutoWeek that it’s not happening. We cannot say we are surprised to learn this, because turning the Challenger into a track-focused model would have been, well… challenging.

Meanwhile, those who want a fast muscle car from Dodge have several trim levels to choose from, including the SRT Hellcat Redeye and SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody, which pack a 717 HP V8 and start at $72,295 and $78,295. The SRT Hellcat and SRT Hellcat Widebody feature the same engine and can be had from $60,695 and $66,695 respectively, while further down, the Challenger lineup is completed by the RT Scat Pack Widebody, RT Scat Pack, RT, GT and SXT, with the most affordable model coming with a 305 HP 3.6-liter V6 from $28,095.
