Dodge is Auctioning Off the Final Dodge Challenger Demon
Dodge is auctioning off the last 2017 Dodge Viper ever built, and the final unit of the limited production 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon.
The two vehicles are being auctioned as a pair, which means the winning bidder will be taking home a combined 1,485 horsepower. Best of all, one-hundred percent of the proceeds from the sale will go to the United Way, making charity the real winner.
Both vehicles will be offered in exclusive Viper Red exterior color and will feature exclusive badging, specific VIN documentation build package, and one-of-a-kind memorabilia. The American automaker went into more details on what the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon will include, such as a black interior with cloth/Alcantara leather seats, front passenger seat, rear seat delete, trunk carpet kit, custom Demon car cover, VIN instrument panel badge, Demon Authentication package, and the Demon Crate.

Production of the Dodge Viper ended at the Conner Avenue Assembly Plant in Detroit in fall 2017. The last production unit is styled in homage to the first-generation Dodge Viper RT/10 with its Viper Red exterior and black interior. The Viper being auctioned off includes exterior carbon fiber accents, black Alcantara leather seats, and exclusive VIN instrument panel badge and authentication kit.
The two sports cars will cross the auction block at the Barrett-Jackson Northeast auction, which takes place June 20 to June 23 at the Mohegan Sun Resort in Uncasville, Connecticut.
“An avid collector could search a lifetime to try to put two vehicles of this pedigree together and never find it, it’s that elusive,” said Steve Beahm, head of Passenger Car Brands, Dodge//SRT, Chrysler and FIAT – FCA North America. “Pairing the last Dodge Challenger SRT Demon and the Dodge Viper production cars – two of America’s most sought-after vehicles – under the roof of Barrett-Jackson gives someone the ‘last’ chance to own this unique piece of automotive history, and Dodge//SRT the opportunity to raise money for a cause close to our hearts.”
