Hot Wheels Dodge XP-07 — Casting Info & Complete Collector’s Guide
The Dodge XP-07 is a Hot Wheels fantasy-car casting created for the 2008 Designers Challenge. Marc Reisen’s turbine-powered concept became a 68 mm Hot Wheels model with a low land-speed-car profile, exposed engine details and a tall, enclosed windshield. Its release history runs from four 2008 Designers Challenge color versions through themed mainline and multipack editions up to 2019.

Variation Summary
The first four releases share two 2008 item numbers: M3312 covers metalflake red and dark blue, while M3320 covers black and pearl white. Later releases use their own series and packaging identifiers. The 2014 BFB25 entry includes four rim-color variants of the same green body and decoration. One unnumbered 2009 page is kept separate as an unverified record.

How to Identify a Dodge XP-07 Release
- Begin with the toy number. M3312 and M3320 each identify two 2008 colors, so pair the number with the paint.
- Match graphics and wheels. The black and white M3320 cars have different flame colors; the red and blue M3312 cars share the front Dodge logo but use different wheel rims.
- Use series and package context. P2379 belongs to 2009 Track Stars, V2053 to Valentine Rides, V5505 to Thrill Racers—Volcano, X7060 to Mystery Models, BFB25 to Double Jump Duel, and FYL13 to Speed Blur.
- Keep 2014 rim variants together. The BFB25 entry records four rim finishes under one five-pack toy number; those do not represent four different body releases.
Casting Details
The XP-07 was created for the 2008 Hot Wheels Designers Challenge. The concept combines two turbine engines, functional air intakes and a cockpit-style windshield into a single-seat speed-car design. The Hot Wheels Newsletter describes the toy’s metal body, plastic base, interior, exposed engine and windshield. The toy’s long, low silhouette and turbine-inspired side details carry through its later color releases.
Country and construction details vary by release. The 2008 Designers Challenge versions are cataloged as Thailand; later editions include Malaysia and Thailand production. Check the individual release table and base rather than applying one origin to the whole casting.
Collector Questions
How many confirmed Dodge XP-07 versions are cataloged?
Ten color and package profiles are confirmed in the release references from 2008 through 2019. The separate 2009 row without a toy number or identifying details remains unverified and is not counted.
Do the two M3312 and two M3320 records represent duplicates?
No. Each item number appears on two distinct colors: red and dark blue for M3312; black and pearl white for M3320.
How many BFB25 rim versions are listed?
Four: blue, chrome, dark blue and light blue rims. They share the green body, decoration and BFB25 Double Jump Duel five-pack context.
Does 68 mm mean 1:64 scale?
No. It is a reported measurement of the toy’s length. No scale is inferred from that measurement here.
Catalog Notes
Release year, series, item numbers, colors and physical details were cross-checked against the Hot Wheels Newsletter casting guide and digital catalog, South Texas Diecast’s Dodge XP-07 checklist, and Designer’s Challenge records. The unnumbered 2009 page could not be matched to a verified catalog release and remains clearly marked.
