I had the pleasure of driving the pervious version of this car and my god, the power house at your disposal is unreal.

You simply can not drive this car normally at cruising speeds. I found myself ripping it up like an idiot from light to light until I finally got to highway and opened her up.

The car just wants to go with instant power delivery that sucks you into the seat and continues to push your organs against your spine.

From what I can see, the model you showed has rear seats. The one I drove had factory front bucket seats with no rear seats, but rather a carbon fiber brace running from one side to the other. But with 700hp I don't think those rear seats will have any negative impact.

If fastest means highest top speed I don't see the Hellcat being anywhere close to the 209 mph posted above. Then good luck on not getting killed in it if you figure out a way to modify the car to get there.

Surely ferraris replacement for the FF (forgotten its name) is going to be a very strong contender for fastest 4 seater.

Looks tacky AF. The 'lower' trim cars look miles better. That said, I'm a huge fan of these cars. They're wonderful to drive in both V8 and W12 guise.

I think a V8 S is the hot ticket of the CGT range, personally.

Lower weight, cats whisker slower, V8 S is the drivers choice of B Continentals.

How could you possibly forget the name GTC4LussoT? It rolls right off the tongue!


...probably the same guy who named the LaFerrari...

That interior just needs an Atlanta Falcons symbol somewhere. Steering wheel looks 5/8 scale.

Love the look, a lot more curves with the new kit than Bentleys as of recent. Still can't afford one, and it wouldn't be my first choice in that price range.

But I do like it a lot. Especially the interior.

There is no way a Hellcat gets close to 200mph let alone 207 lol.

Here's one doing 204. The one I saw the gauge said 207. Depending on the gauge calibration, temp, car variations in quality, etc, it makes sense. This test also averaged both directions with and against wind and averaged them so with wind again, it works. They actually do 206.9mph in the video. Hmmmm
