It has an automatic transmission with paddle shifters. It has the full suspension package, ceramic brakes, and an interior featuring luxury touches such as automatic climate control, heated and cooled seats, and a fully custom LED gauge cluster.

I originally reported this car as 750 WHP / 800 WTQ in the title and description of the video. That was an error. It's 830 WHP / 900 WTQ. my bad.

Paddle shifters through bluetooth sounds like the worst way to shift anything. I'm fine if they want it but if it was me I would go for a normal auto without that.

I would agree that this sounds like a bad idea from the get-go. In my experience, Bluetooth connections have too much latency for anything you expect to be instantaneous. Then if there's a lot of Bluetooth traffic in the vicinity? Just seems like a recipe for disappointment. Weird since they did so many thing *so* right in this build. This car looks and sounds amazing.
@Hurrycane-j 7 жыл бұрын
there are so many bluetooth mouses and keyboards and even in industry automation you can use bluetooth. so i would say that latency of bluetooth itself is not the problem. it is the programming in the controller. and over small distances i don't see a problem. but the way it sounds "bluetooth for paddle shifters" is quite ridiculous
@RadioMarkCroom 7 жыл бұрын
Have you used a Bluetooth keyboard? Every one I've used has not kept up with my typing. I don't know that I've experienced the same thing with mice, but I can't use a Bluetooth keyboard for serious typing. So it's not my first choice. I use plenty of of wireless peripherals but use Bluetooth only for audio.

The work on these cars is beautiful, not just this Charger, but all the other cars in the other videos too. You can tell these guys are passionate and do it right, well done and congratulations to the shop, and thank you to Matt for bringing us this content.

The only thing I don't understand about this car is the gearbox. All that, and they put a 4L80E in it? Was it the only option that could handle the power and torque without breaking? And at what I'm imagining is a seven-figure build cost, they couldn't find a way to do the paddles other than bluetooth? Love the car, don't get me wrong. It's beautiful. That detail just seems kind of phoned-in for the cost.
@TheSmokingTire 7 жыл бұрын
DaedalusZero I don't know if it was me or Alex that said 4L80 in the video, but that's an error. It's a 6L80
@HiroshimaSpirit 7 жыл бұрын
TheSmokingTire Fair enough. I still stand by my question(s) of why that gearbox and bluetooth, however. I don't expect you to know why, of course. I'm just puzzled by those two choices. If I built a car like that, I'd want a ZF 8-speed, personally.
@TheSmokingTire 7 жыл бұрын
DaedalusZero yeah I don't know. The gearbox for me was the weak link of the build, as I didn't love the auto shift pattern or the responsiveness of the paddles, but I'm told this owner really just wants to cruise it so to that end, it was fine.
@detroitspeed 7 жыл бұрын
It is actually a Bowler Performance built 4L80E with a triple disk lock-up converter. This transmission is more than enough to support the numbers that the car puts out.
@HiroshimaSpirit 7 жыл бұрын
Detroit Speed, Inc. I wasn't questioning whether it was up to the task of transmitting the power. It just seems like an odd choice for such an extensive build, in my opinion. However, the owner seems to want it mostly for cruising, and it'll do that just fine. You guys are the pros, so you probably are better informed than I am and made the choice based on that. It's a beautiful build, nonetheless.
