Two Torque Monsters...E55/Viper
I've always loved the new Challengers agressive look...just very heavy for the previous power levels. Kudos to SRT on the Hellcat.

I hope they make it Mod friendly unlike the Gen IV and V Vipers...but doubtful.

Nice... 600+ hp Supercharged 6.2 392 cid.. I read it has valet mode that locks OUT 1st gear, launch modes, and keeps revs below 4k etc and 2 key fobs, (Challenger SRT Hellcat gets two individual keys: One in black for reduced output and another red one to unleash the full 600-plus-horsepower output. There is even a PIN-activated Valet mode for both variants that, among other things, limits power and access to the first gear.)

Ahhh... Mercedes.. Attn Mercedes.. Feel free to take NOTES.. Dual Intercoolers upfront nestled behind front bumper?? Ram-Air thru center fog light?? Who'd imagine such crazy oem mods

I believe it has valves in the exhaust, according to OP's video.

Sounds like its underwater.

The fact that you can do this is pretty freaking sick. Nothing like keeping your car in one piece right, since everyone thinks they can drive a 500hp+ car without traction..

Concerning that the car outputs a nice dual blue smoke cloud when they start it up. Brand new cars really shouldn't do that. This coupled with the valvetrain problems the 6.1L Hemi's are already known for doesn't make me feel warm and fuzzy. I would definitely want an extended warranty on that beast.

ha ha I think its a well know fact that when it comes to American muscle the Challenger will always be 3rd to the Mustang GT500 and Camaro ZL1.

That being said I'd still rock a Hell Cat if I had money to blow

These things are pretty dope! This really should run a 11-12sec 1/4. I've got a SRT8 Jeep with the same kind of power that does 11.9xx in Denver at a mile above sea level and DA over 9,000. Bang for the buck I'd still go Vette

The Z06 is not even on sale yet. I'll wait until I see some more beta testing before I believe that claim.
