The 2023 Dodge Charger King Daytona traces its lineage to a famous monarch of the 1960s and 1970s West Coast drag-racing scene: William “Big Willie” Robinson, who nicknamed his 1969 Dodge Charger “King Daytona” and used it not only in claiming victory at the drag strip, but also in keeping racers on the track and off the streets. The 2023 Dodge Charger King Daytona honors the original by bumping performance to 807 horsepower and pairing a Go Mango exterior with unique orange interior accents.

The 2023 Dodge Charger King Daytona represents the fifth of seven special-edition Dodge “Last Call” models that celebrate the Dodge Challenger and Dodge Charger, which in their current form are coming to an end. The Dodge Charger King Daytona follows previously announced Dodge Challenger Shakedown, Dodge Charger Super Bee and Dodge Challenger and Charger Scat Pack Swinger models.

Only two more Dodge “Last Call” models will be announced: one on September 21, 2022, and the seventh and final special-edition model — the very last of its kind — at the 2022 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, scheduled for Nov. 1-4, 2022.

“The special-edition Dodge Charger King Daytona honors a true icon of muscle car history,” said Tim Kuniskis, Dodge brand chief executive officer – Stellantis. “The final Dodge ‘Last Call’ models will continue to celebrate the legacy of the Dodge Charger and Challenger by paying tribute to two vehicles that hold a special place in our brand’s history.”

Yes, this was the Never Lift garage door with the Crown. So not King Richard Petty, but Big Willie Robinson's King Daytona

 

[Wolfgang]

Well finally we get a hit(not a home run by any means) with so many previous strikeouts. Unfortunately with only 300 units this so far will have the most outrageous ADM in Dodge history most probably leaving the ADM's charged from the Demon model year in the dust.

 

[B5Blue6M]

For some reason I thought this was number 4, we had:

Shaker
Superbee
Swing Dart
King Daytona.

Was the hornet considered the 1st one?

No. That was a prelude to these.

 

[Slowpoke387]

Instant collectible wow. 300 of them. I'll bet we never see one on the road ever.

 

[99GTS]

Best one yet has been the Superbee.

Only one that hasn’t been a pure paint/decal gimmick. The Bee seems to bee (ha) basically a 1320 Charger which is awesome.

Here’s hoping the next is a SuperStock Charger.

6p rear brembos?

 

[B5Blue6M]

No. That was a prelude to these.

Mhm, so why is this being called number 5?

 

[HellishCat]

Yay! Seats from a lower trim level. Orange stitching and a weak a55 badge. Dodge is killing it...literally, not figuratively.

 

[xcesiv]

I believe the ones from last week each count as 1

 

[B5Blue6M]

I believe the ones from last week each count as 1

That's what I was thinking too. Thanks.

 

[xcesiv]

Shakedown Challenger
Super Bee Charger
Scat Pack Swinger Challenger
Scat Pack Swinger Charger
King Daytona Charger
TBA
SEMA

 

[ceebydeeby710]

So what's your guess for the next 2? Maybe something Helephant-powered for SEMA? 'Cuda?

SEMA will be E85 car, 909 horse is my guess. Hellaphant motor does not meet emissions, can't be that.

 

[xcesiv]

It would be sweet if they made a true wide body. Narrow the rear end and mold the fender extensions into the body lines. It’ll be limited production i’m sure, so why the hell not go all out!

Mainly because they would lose money on it if they did that.

(Sound of toilet flushing)...

OMG I'm SO GLAD I decided not to wait for these final-year Mopars vs. getting my 2022 807 hp Jailbreak Charger! I was THIS CLOSE to waiting for 2023....what DUDS these special edition decal cars are! Combine the fact that the dealer markups are only getting worse...and I got my 2022 for under MSRP...I'm stoked!

 

[OKSS]

While not a fan of the Chargers, that color is spectacular. Is it a new color, or just some computer programs enhancing the regular Go Mango?
