Only 212 were painted Sublime green for 2023, but rarity didn't stop this fully optioned Hellcat from selling below its purchase price

- This Challenger Hellcat is one of just 212 painted Sublime green in 2023.
- Despite the rarity, the car failed to sell for anywhere near the original MSRP.
- With 717 hp from the V8, used Challengers remain a solid value for money.
It feels like only yesterday dealers were piling on markups for the final Dodge Challengers in all the right specs. The mood has long shifted. Configure a one-of-one SRT Hellcat Widebody Jailbreak, and you might expect instant collector status. Instead, this owner just learned how quickly that assumption can unravel, with the delivery-mileage car selling at auction for nearly $14,000 less than its original sticker price.
While some of the last versions of the V8-powered Challenger have been fetching some serious coin, others have been depreciating just like most other new cars. This 2023 one is no different, despite how eye-catching it is.

The most striking element is obviously the Sublime green paint, of which just 212 Challengers built for 2023 were finished in this color. It has also been configured with yellow brake calipers, another rare option, an Alcantara steering wheel, 20-inch black wheels, black exterior badging, and the driver convenience group. Combine these options, and you have a pretty unique Challenger.
