- The actor’s rare Demon 170 Jailbreak is the only one painted in Cream Sickle.
- This Demon had an original price tag of $162,836 and has soared in value.
- Earlier this year, a Panther Pink Demon 170 Jailbreak sold for $450,000.
There’s no doubt that the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 Jailbreak is, and will always remain, the most prized and valuable version of the now-discontinued muscle car Built in an ultra-limited run of just 40 units and offered exclusively to a select group of Dodge’s VIP clients, the 170 Jailbreak wasn’t just rare, it was invitation-only rare.
One of these elusive machines is now up for auction, and with bidding already hitting $400,000 and a day still to go, it could very well set a new record.
Watch: Kevin Hart Gets A 1969 Plymouth Roadrunner Restomod To Die For
This particular example was originally delivered to comedian and actor Kevin Hart, a well-known enthusiast with a serious appetite for American muscle. His garage already includes multiple restomods and vintage brutes, so it’s no shock that he landed one of these ultra-exclusive Dodge builds.
Like the other 39 Demon 170 Jailbreak owners, Hart was personally invited by Dodge to buy the car. Dodge offered 40 different color options for the 40 cars, and built just a single example in each color. Hart’s is painted in Cream Sickle. The current seller purchased the Challenger from Hart for an undisclosed amount, drove it to a gas station, and has then parked it at home. It has just 24 miles under its belt.
The same owner of this Demon 170 Jailbreak also flipped one of the other limited-run models a couple of months ago. That one had just 36 miles and was painted Panther Pink. It sold for an incredible $450,000, despite having an original sticker price of $150,946. Hart’s car had an original price of $162,836.

In addition to the car, the seller is also parting ways with a carbon fiber rear seat delete panel that has been personally signed by Hart. The car also includes a serialized Simpson helmet painted in Cream Sickle with Demon graphics.
Under the hood, it’s still very much a Demon 170. That means a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 pushing out 1,025 horsepower and 945 lb-ft of torque on E85. Of course, given the car’s exclusivity and rising value, there’s a good chance the next owner won’t be launching it down a drag strip anytime soon. Most likely, it’ll spend the rest of its life as a garage trophy.
