- A 2023 Challenger Super Stock with 807 horsepower sold for $17,740 less than MSRP.
- February saw another Super Stock auctioned for $63,250, well below original pricing.
- Bring A Trailer’s data reveals a consistent dip in prices for previously marked-up cars.
Of all the Hellcat variants out there, from the original to the Demon, the Super Stock stands out as a bit of an oddball. Think of it as a more refined, low-production Demon, but with a less obsessive focus on drag racing. And while that makes it unique, it also means that prices are sliding for models like these, especially when a low-mileage 2023 example just sold for nearly $18,000 less than its original MSRP.

This 2023 Challenger Super Stock is one of just 1,490 ever built, finished in Sublime Green with a black interior. It’s loaded with just about every option you’d expect in a near-$100K muscle car, including a sunroof, heated and ventilated seats, and a technology/driver package. Under the hood, you’ve got an 807-horsepower (601 kW) V8 engine, paired with an automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. Classic Hellcat stuff.
This car doesn’t skimp on performance, either. It’s equipped with adaptive dampers, a power chiller to cool the engine during heat soak, lightweight Demon wheels, and all-aluminum Brembo brakes. These are all features lifted directly from the original Demon, so you know this thing’s capable.
Despite all that, the car with an original MSRP of $103,740 just sold for $86,000. It picked up just 25 bids and 18 comments. 19 of those bids came in on the last day of the auction. Could this be a one-off? Maybe. But the numbers are starting to suggest otherwise.
The Bubble Is Bursting
In fact, a similar Super Stock with 8,000 miles sold on the same auction platform back in February for just $63,250. This wasn’t some clapped-out example with a ton of flaws either. Just the opposite, as it was one of fewer than 200 made during the model year and one of just a few in its color combination. The truth is becoming clearer. The days of hardcore FOMO leading to excessive pricing are gone for some models like the Challenger.
This drop in value isn’t a fluke, either. We’ve got the data to back it up. Check out the pricing trends from Bring A Trailer, which tracks sales and high bids. As you can see from the graph, prices were soaring in mid-2022, but since the start of 2024, they’ve been steadily declining.
Sure, there will still be some rare examples that command a premium, but for the most part, patience is paying off for those who were patient with their cash.
