- Another low-mileage Last Call Dodge muscle car has hit the auction scene.

Did anyone who bought a Last Call Dodge muscle car actually, you know, drive it? We only ask because not a week seems to go by without another incredibly low mileage example appearing on an auction platform – and selling for less money than the owners probably expected to realize when they decided to buy and mothball them.
To be fair, this example we’re looking at today has at least seen some action. A 2023 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack Widebody Mopar ’23 Special Edition, it’s logged 740 miles (1,190 km), which is ridiculously low for a two-year-old car, but higher than other run-out Challenger specials we’ve come across.

This is number 188 of 220 Mopar ’23 Challengers built (there was a Charger version, too), each one based on the R/T Scat Pack Widebody and made more special through a combination of Pitch Black Clear Coat exterior with matte black stripes that are trimmed in Mopar Blue accents.
The same blue makes an appearance on the Brembo brake calipers that really pop against the black of the 20-inch forged aluminium wheels and carbon exterior trim. There’s yet more carbon on the inside as well as a dashboard plaque to help justify the $3,995 premium over a stock R/T Scat Pack Widebody, whose 485 hp (492 PS) 392-cube V8 it relied on.
Despite the low miles, the rarity of the Mopar ’23 package, and the presence of a manual transmission, bidding for this car topped out at $60,500, which is $9,095 less than it cost new, including options and destination charges. But it did better than another manual Mopar ’23 that was offered on the same platform a couple of weeks earlier. That car had an even lower mileage – just 250 miles (402 km) – but bidders lost interest at $48,750, which wasn’t enough to meet the reserve.
Things might not have turned out how investment-buyer Dodge owners hoped they would, but they’re great for buyers today because the market is flush with like-new Dodge muscle cars months after Stellantis stopped making them. Would you take this $60k Challenger over a brand new Mustang Dark Horse for a $5k more?
