The return of the pony car also meant the return of the muscle car, introducing new generations of enthusiasts to the joys of the ongoing renaissance in American horsepower and performance. Such heralded names as Mustang (and its Shelby variant), Camaro and Challenger have enjoyed a glorious resurrection since the turn of the century, but while it can be argued that the Dodge pony car’s styling was the most faithful to the original, its performance lagged somewhat behind its pony car competition—until the Challenger SRT8 392 was introduced for the 2011 model year. Moving up from 6.1L to the 6.4L 392 Hemi evoked a legendary number from the past, and its effect was real.
Engineers endowed the SRT8’s 392 with increased compression and a longer stroke to improve breathing and crank horsepower up from 425 to 470 HP at 6,000 RPM and bump torque to 470 lb-ft at 4,800 RPM. Behind that new 392 was the familiar choice of transmissions: the 6-speed manual and 5-speed TorqueFlite automatic, the latter packaged with the cylinder deactivation programming formerly preserved for the 5.7L non-SRT Hemi. In either case, the SRT8 392 driver is treated to an iconic pistol-grip shifter.
Building on the 392’s increased power, SRT engineers turned to the chassis setup, installing Brembo brakes, revising the sway bars, bushings and dampers, and adjusting static camber for improved cornering. A new heavy-duty hydraulic power steering pump offered quicker response and added more precise steering feel to complement the car’s increased nimbleness. Along with all the improvements in performance, the SRT8 392 is also differentiated from the norm by prominent “392 HEMI” badges and a revised front fascia that includes a larger front spoiler that directs air around the rolling stock.
This sinister black-on-black 2012 Challenger SRT8 392 with 3,263 miles offers BF Goodrich G-Force Sport tires on black Lexani wheels, a rear spoiler, power sunroof, white accent stitching and UConnect stereo with SiriusXM capability.
