Not for nothing i can afford 5 of these bitches but all the hype of a factory s/c car is wearing me out! Don't get me wrong i love mopar 100% but this shit is getting out of control! there are plenty of cars on this forum making crazy hp numbers in stock body form. I personally think if dodge is looking for the attention they should have made a new body (cuda) with the new power! just my opinion. ![]()

Despite my post in the thread about the hellcat, I'm not overly fond of it. To me, there is a big difference between just buying horsepower in stock form and making it yourself through careful research. I also dislike the interior. Not saying I wouldn't take one if you wanted to be able to only afford 4 hellcats, at 23 I have plenty of time to regain my dignity ![]()

If I have to explain it, you just wouldn't get it anyways.
Edit... I'll try...
Made in North America, airbags, stereo, Brembos, pushrod V8, 700hp, warranty, choice of an 8-speed auto or 6-speed manual, heated seats, air conditioning, etc., etc.
Looks are completely subjective and have nothing to do with it.

And you could not build the same car for $65,000. Its more than just a supercharger thrown on top of the motor. The motor is fully forged, bigger axles, bigger brakes, factory engineered cooling, TUNED correctly. Better/upgraded transmissions.

So you guys are sick of hearing about a new mopar that will put Chrysler back on the top of the heap from a factory HP performance standpoint after we have waited over 40 years to regain that postition? Wow, well I guess you can't please everybody.

lmao so you think you can't buy a 28k base rt and bring it up to hellcat all around performance levels for another 37 k in mods ? You might want to find a new shop to do your work.And you could not build the same car for $65,000. Its more than just a supercharger thrown on top of the motor.

Everyone who wanted the first challenger in 08 paid out the ass for it! now what? Had fiat made the nastiest car in a new body factory built they would have my money! S/c the challenger is not the money maker or the game changer. Look at the mustang different hp levels same body. I think we need something beyond this. I guess time will tell.

Guess I should have been more specific I meant muscle car.
. IDK even I am not sick of it yet, I mean shit all we have heard is PR crap so far. I want to hear about real driver / owners to see what they can do with them?
Exactly, I want to see what these cars will do in the real world and find out how easy they are to modify and gain horsepower. I want to know what kind of performance can be pulled out of one of these cars and I don't think we are going to find that out until they get in the hands of the public.

How much is a good all forged HEMI motor going to cost with supercharger?

Solution is simple-
Drink some pepto bismol and then go buy a Mustang.. Whiny ass bitches..
EVERYTHING gets overly hyped. Targeted saturation., marketed to death, DODGE/Chrysler are answering the question (other) people have been asking..
And now you have your turn key, baddest kid on the block hot rod.. No technical expertise needed, no imagination, no backyard R &D, . They did all your homework for you..
Personally, its a bad mother f****r, but, it's more fun to BUILD YOUR own personal fast as hell statement of horsepower, and then go and smoke the latest and greatest offering to come down the factory pipe..
Then I'll finish my crack pipe...and then smoke an HC.. why not..
Steveo we need boobs...
