It appears the muscle car wars are alive and strong.

Should be interesting to see how it compares to the ZL1 and the GT500.

I wonder if it weighs over 4100lbs still. I'm sure it does since nothing was mentioned about weight reduction.

Saw this a little while ago, definitely good shit. I love Challenger SRT-8's and almost considered getting one instead of my 128.


This thing looks like a beast, I really like it.

Growing up... My uncle had several Muscle cars: 67' & 68' Camaro, 70' Hemicuda and a Nova. I'll never forget the awesomeness of seeing those cars pop wheelies off the line and do huge burnouts! The boxy shape adds to the nostalgia as well. Kudos to the American car makers for 'reviving the muscle car heritage.'

Eh, it probably doesn't handle great, but the '12 Challenger SRT gets around VIR faster than an '06 Cayman S, '06 M6, E92 335i, '11 WRX STI, '08 135i, etc. This Hellcat will be faster. It'll get around a corner just fine.

I wonder how much weight all that beefed up running gear and supercharger will add. Eh, more choices for the consumer never hurt anyone. Not my style though.

Why do they always do their comercials with the cars peeling out in the dirt or driving off road. Is it to make them look like they are fast and have power? With 600HP it should really make a big cloud of dust!

Unless you're in a Z/28. Then you'll leave the M cars, AMGs, and Quattro cars in the dust.

I don't care how heavy this thing is, with looks like that sign me up! Wouldn't care one bit how much slower it is than the Mustang or Camaro because it looks like that!
