You’re not dreaming, Mopar fans.

The Dodge Challenger T/A and Dodge Charger Daytona are really back, and everyone taking part of the Woodward Dream Cruise in Detroit, MI this week will be among the first to see them.

This fall, the 2017 Challenger T/A and Charger Daytona will be available to car buyers in both 5.7-liter and 6.4-liter V8 HEMI engine options, and sporting many of the power- and speed-making parts that puts the ferocity in Dodge’s Hellcat-powered vehicles.

Among the extra performance parts are a 2.75-inch cat-back style electronically controlled exhaust, high performance brakes, and 20-inch wheels that are wider than stock.

The car rides on Dodge’s Super Track Pak, which includes a half-inch suspension drop, Bilstein shocks, stability control, and Goodyear F1 tires. As an option, the Challenger T/A will be available with a satin black hood, roof and “T/A” graphics, as well as factory-installed hood pins.

The Charger Daytona will be getting most of the same upgrades, though it sits on Pirelli tires, and provides those convenient rear doors to save money on insurance and convince your spouse it’s a legit family vehicle.

According to Road & Track, a base 5.7-liter Challenger T/A will start at $38,485, while the 6.4-liter will run you $45,090. The 5.7-liter Charger Daytona starts at $40,985, with the 6.4-liter starting at $46,090.
