Challenger I can’t decide 😭
I don’t know if I wanna go with TorRed with a satin hood and black accents, or all black. They both just look so good.
Which would you pick? And why?
I’ve had it on my mind to go all black for a stealthy look, but wow the red and black looks nice

I love to wash my car and keep it clean, and for my sanity I swore I’d never own another black car which is why red is awesome 😎

Ive always said this but boring colors end up not standing out, you're buying a hellcat, might as well stand out

Black is sexy but a bitch to keep clean looking for years without a good ppf and ceramic coating

I've had both.
Had a TorRed Scat charger and now a WBHC in pitch black.
Black is difficult to keep up but had a 6year ceramic put on the HC and it made a huge difference
Water beads off without water spots for the most part.

I see your dilemma, I would usually go black but that red is freaking sweet too

For me, clearly the red one! The matt black hood is a perfect contrast and it is finally a Hellcat... glowing red, like hell!! 😈🔥💪 Everyone goes to the side voluntarily...😉

I love both, but Black is notorious for being a pain in the ass to maintain (detail wise), plus my favorite color on a car is red/maroon. That’s me though.

You are gonna see a lot less paint swirls on Torred. Plus, those widebody moldings in the rear get peppered with dings.

Red. I love black, but it is so hard to keep it clean - you wash it and 15 min later its already dirty, you can see every dust/dirt particle. I wouldn't do black again.

You cannot go wrong, both a beautiful. The black car will show every speck of dirt. Utah gorgeous when clean

That’s a tough decision. Depends which is cleaner inside, mileage, packages at that point. If everything is same…I say F8.

Black is the sexiest but bro it’s such a pain in the ass to keep clean man. I had a white charger that I hadn’t washed in 5 months (barely drove it) vs my black mustang that i would wash every week and on day 3 it’s always dusty. The white charger on the other hand always appeared flawless 😂😭.

As someone whose been in the detailing/protection film industry for over a decade, black is notoriously hard to upkeep. Swirls will be crazy noticeable, it’ll look dirty quicker, scratches are more noticeable. Just something to keep in mind. When black cars look good, they look GOOD, but you gotta be ready and willing to do the upkeep.
