Dodge Demon Price: MSRP, Trims & Real-World Cost

The Dodge Demon is a limited-production, drag-strip-focused version of the Challenger. Dodge built it in two forms: the original 2018 Challenger SRT Demon and the 2023 Challenger SRT Demon 170, which was among the last special editions of the Challenger. Because both were produced in small numbers, the sticker price and the price a buyer pays today can be far apart.

This page separates the original price from the used-market price. The first comes from Dodge. The second comes from recent individual auction sales, so they show specific cars on specific days.

MSRP is the manufacturer's suggested retail price. It does not include destination, taxes, registration, or dealer add-ons, and it does not account for any markup a dealer may have charged on a high-demand car.

The 2023 Demon 170 is shown as its own line because it was priced and launched separately from the 2018 car. The 2018 starting MSRP is shown in the box above.

The destination charge listed is the 2018 figure. It was added to the starting price on the window sticker, so a buyer's real starting total was higher than the base MSRP alone.

Demon vs. Demon 170 price

The Demon 170 carried a higher MSRP than the original 2018 Demon, as the rows above show. The two cars are not the same product, so a comparison of their prices is a comparison of two different editions. If you are shopping, confirm which one a listing refers to, since sellers sometimes use "Demon" loosely.

Neither Demon is sold new in the usual way anymore, so the used market is what most buyers face. The results below are individual completed sales on Bring a Trailer, an online auction site. Each reflects one car, its mileage, and the day it sold.

Compare the original price with the sale prices and the gap is easy to see. Both 2018 cars sold above the original starting price, and the 2023 Demon 170 cars sold well above their own MSRP. Very low mileage is part of the reason, since these cars were often kept as collector items rather than driven. That does not mean prices will stay that way. Auction results move with demand, and a different car on a different day can sell for less.

These results cover only a few cars. When you evaluate one, look for several recent sales with a similar year and mileage.

• Edition. The 2018 Demon and the 2023 Demon 170 are priced differently and appeal to different buyers.
• Mileage. Very low mileage can bring a premium because many owners treated these cars as collectibles.
• Originality. Unmodified cars with their original parts, including the items shipped in the Demon Crate, may appeal to collectors more than modified cars.
• Documentation. Original window stickers, build sheets, and service records can support a higher price.
• Condition. Drag use, damage, or poor storage can reduce value.
• Timing. Prices at auction change with demand and the number of similar cars for sale.

Counterfeit and mislabeled cars exist for any collectible vehicle. Verify the VIN against the documentation, request the original window sticker, and have the seller confirm the build details. A vehicle history report can show accident and title history. Have an independent mechanic or a Dodge performance specialist inspect the car, especially if it has been used at a drag strip.

Warranty coverage may also differ depending on age, mileage, and ownership history. Ask the seller what coverage, if any, remains and whether it transfers to a new owner. Dodge or a franchised Dodge service department can tell you what applies to a given VIN.

The purchase price is only part of the picture. Insurance for a limited-production, high-output car can cost a good deal more than for an ordinary vehicle, and many collectors look at agreed-value or collector-car policies. Premiums vary by driver and location, so get quotes on the exact VIN. Race tires, fuel, and routine service also cost more than on a typical sedan or coupe.
