2009 Dodge Challenger Hurst

This 2009 Dodge Challenger Hurst stands out as a fusion of retro American muscle and modern engineering. It was first unveiled at the SEMA show in 2008, and was part of the Challenger Revival Series of the Demon, Hellcat, and Hellcat Redeye, all of which are also featured in the Lubeck Garage collection. This Series 5 SRT8 is a Limited Edition vehicle that Hurst Performance put their name on as one of the most recognized and respected brands in the aftermarket high-performance automotive world. This tradition has been carried on since 1968 with the first Hurst/Olds to hit the market.

Built in extremely limited numbers, it is tailored for collectors who equally value both heritage and performance. This particular car, #15 of only 15 produced, represents the final example of the series, making it an especially significant entry in any curated collection. It was designed as a tribute to the original Oldsmobile 442, which is also represented in this collection with a 1969 Oldsmobile 455 Hurst. This special edition brings the past into the present with modern upgrades while preserving the classic style that made the original legendary.

Among the most noticeable tributes to Hurst’s classic exterior include its iconic gold racing stripes, the five-spoke 20-inch rims with gold inlays, and Hurst badging placed around the Challenger. It is an unmistakable tribute to muscle car royalty.

Hurst may no longer be in business but the brand's mark on this car is further cemented in a literal sense. Signatures from the car’s builders are proudly displayed on the underside of the trunk, including Hurst Performance CEO Chris Phillips and designer Charles Taylor. Members of the Nebraska-based Woodhouse Auto Group from which the car originates also signed the trunk: Woodhouse owner Stan Fernau, VP of sales Tony “Sales Yoda” Baumgartner, and managers Bill Pemberton and Mark Jorgensen. Along with a Hurst Limited Edition sequentially numbered dash badge, Hurst leather interior with gold top-stitching and embroidered logos throughout the cabin, this limited edition 2009 Dodge Challenger Hurst’s legacy is solidified as a true collector’s item.

At its core is a 6.1-liter V8 engine, elevated by a Hurst-built Vortech supercharger, pushing out 572 horsepower and 528 lb-ft of torque. Performance upgrades include a K&N air filter, Magnaflow stainless-steel cat-back exhaust, and Eibach coil-over adjustable suspension. It sits on 20-inch polished Hurst forged wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich KDW performance tires, delivering both presence and precision.

Inside, the driving experience is rounded out with a Hurst “HARD-DRIVE” pistol-grip shifter and the Mopar/Kicker audio system adds a touch of modern entertainment, blending comfort with raw capability.

With its limited production, custom features, and a name that resonates with muscle car history, the 2009 Hurst Challenger is more than just a supercharged spectacle. It is a modern collectible built with reverence, power, and purpose. It speaks to the car’s mission of honoring the legacy of the original Hurst/Olds while creating something new, powerful, and unforgettable.

As the very last of a rare commemorative vehicle, this #15/15 2009 Dodge Challenger Hurst is not only rare, but it is historic in every sense. This car is worth preserving for the sake of preserving automotive history for our next generation.
