Re: 2015 hellcat challenger
Its still the biggest and heaviest of the pony cars. Power is great and these cars are already full of it. I would wide-body the rear, lower the car at least an inch, and try to reduce some weight. Sweet rides.
I hear that SRT is being reswallowed back into Dodge, is that true ??

Has there been an officially published HP and torque figure? I've heard everything from 604-660hp with 385-412lbs

The power these companies are putting out right from factory is unreal. However weighing in at probably 4200-4400 lbs that thing is a pig!

This would be a great car...if it was 1971.

Its a great car period. Put a pair of street slicks on it and you will be looking at his tail lights. They are making a 1/4 mile monster, not a cornering car. I like it a lot

I would argue that the advances in braking and handling since the mid/late 1960's are far more impressive than the engine power. Aerodynamics too (for top speed).
They were getting 500+ naturally aspirated HP and torque back in the 60's but they de-rated the published numbers down into the 300-400 range for insurance purposes.

Its s very heavy car...no getting around that so the HP rating is a bit misleading in terms of bottom line performance.
In my day we didn't have the Internet, iPods,iPads, or smart phones....but we had some really bad-azz cars.

Yes, they would give the power ratings at 2900 rpm or something when the car could do 5000 rpm.
