Drag Fans Rejoice for the new Dodge Challenger Drag Pak from Mopar

Posted on July 10, 2015 by baysideadmin

Mopar is a name that means performance. For years they’ve been bringing their expertise to numerous vehicles and giving them a whole new life with various different packages and upgrades. The engineers at Mopar have delivered on their next product, the Dodge Challenger Drag Pak.

As the name shows, this performance package is rooted in the drag racing. The National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) was brought in to help Mopar put together this new Challenger pack.

“Today, we write the next page in our performance playbook with the reveal of the production Mopar Dodge Challenger Drag Pak,” said Pietro Gorlier, Mopar Brand Service’s President and CEO. “A vehicle that offers, for the first time, a supercharged engine that provides our racers more options.”

Like Gorlier said, this new Challenger comes with the choice between the brands’ first-ever supercharged 354-cubic-inch Gen III Hemi or the naturally aspirated 426-cubic-inch Gen III Hemi engine.

“Our brand is committed to supporting Mopar drivers who compete at all levels. In 2014, we debuted a new Dodge Dart NHRA Pro Stock car that won right out of the gate. In 2015 our new Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car did the same. Now, Mopar is supercharging our Sportsman racers.”

Those interested in the Mopar Dodge Challenger Drag Pak will be able to place orders starting Jul 23^rd. The MSRP for the 426 Gen III Hemi is $99,426 and the 354 supercharged HEMI for $109,354. To learn more about the package, visit Mopar’s website.

Dodge Offers Viper Fans More Paint Options for a Unique Look

Posted on June 20, 2015 by baysideadmin

Dodge is giving Viper drivers more choices in the production of their favorite supercar.

With the 2016 model year, Dodge will now be offering matte-finish exterior paint for the Viper. This means fans will now have more than 50 million different and unique looks to choose from. That list is made up of more than 16,000 unique color options and more than 48,000 strip combos. First prize goes to the person who uses a sprinkle of every color and stripe.

“The Anodized Carbon Viper was the first-ever use of this unique metallic matte exterior color by FCA and helped further the trend in automotive matte finish exteriors from the factory,” Tim Kuniskis, President and CEO of Dodge and SRT brands said. “Now, by adding 8,000 new matte finish options to our high-end, hand-built hand-painted super car, we’re continuing at the forefront of the matte paint trend by offering so many variations, colors and even a metallic finish, all of which give each ‘1 of 1’ Viper an even more unique appearance.”

These new matte finish Vipers will be available for order in July.

Dodge is certainly taking steps to constantly make the Viper experience one of the most unique for drivers. The amount of options and varieties in look means that no matter how many Vipers are on the road, it can still be a special little snowflake in the crowd.
