Starting a 2023 Production Thread, I found the first cars come down the line on December 13th and they have built 6720 cars since that date as of the end of December, 500 of those were Hellcats.

Chart below and will be updated with the daily posts for new Hellcat builds.

As always, if there is additional information that anyone would find useful I will do my best to provide what I can.

Wow crazy amount of Hellcats in two weeks .

 

[SWFL]

We have a 23' JB HC that was built a week ago, ready to ship.

Triple-B, Thank you!
I assume the other paint colors will be added in the near future: B5 Blue, Plum Crazy, etc?

 

[gocat]

Any special editions built yet?

 

[S8ER01Z]

Any chance you can track Durangos as well?

They might have to swap colors.... or can they paint all 14 colors at the same time?

USUALLY Dodge has built the high impact colors at the end of the production run. Seems to be true in this case also with the exception of the Sublime.

I'm confused. I thought they were only making a tiny number of NB Redeyes per the HP locator. And they already have made 9 in the first 2 weeks? Does this mean the locator does not have an accurate count or am I missing something?

That was my initial hunt. Realizing the limited run I secured a standard Cat. The good deals had dried up. I already didn't think the RE was worth 10k over the regular Cat. No way was I going to pay over MSRP. Still scratching my head why they limited the standard body RE.

car manufacturers paint the cars in lot numbers. Assembly lines look like 40 black 35 green 60 purple etc etc every now and again a special lot of maybe 2 might come down the line!

^ "special lot"? What could those be?

Brampton Builder who used to post here said they do not do that, somebody suggested it and he said no, we do not paint cars in batches.

And the videos of the line on YouTube show random cars and colors one behind the other.

Maybe having other cars in the mix (Charger & 300) complicates that even if they wanted to.

Your post brings back memories of working in a Cadillac plant, Lansing, MI, in 2001. Car bodies came down the line, through a dip tank, and through multiple paint spay booths to get the assigned color for the car. Had to be 4-5 different booths.

Found this info on a FB group about the colors.

Have not seen any SE cars except for the pilots.

 

[The Beeban is here]

Yup. My 2023 challenger REWB is listed as “built” , as of today.

I have posted current info I have found in the Durango thread. They only recently started the 2023 Durangos but no DDHC's have been built yet.

It was three weeks ago and they already have built Sublime cars and shipped them the first day. I'm waiting on 2/27 for Plum Crazy to ramp up!
