I do not consider 14 second quarter miles fast.

Per your article, that's a v6 car you're referring to with your 1/4 mile time. The 392 car is 485hp,  12.5 second 1/4 mile and 0-60 in 4.2 seconds. Not too shabby, especially for the price.

If you want a really fast Challenger, buy a Demon. A factory 800hp car that is illegal at NHRA sanctioned races.

It’s a Dodge.

Get the Camaro ZL1. Much Lighter and 650HP.

It starts at $61k, it's a half second faster 0-60 and a second faster than the TA392 and it's $20k more. If you want to compare dollar for dollar, compare the $64k Hellcat and the Dodge wins from a performance standpoint.

Forget a Challenger. You want a Jeep Trackhawk. You can fit waaaaay more outdoor gear in there... and a few dead animals.

Best of both worlds! Those Trackhawks would make a heck of a hunting rig. :chuckle:

Yup. I think they're around 700 HP. You'll always be the first one to your hunting spot in that rig. :tup:

Dont do it, there are at least 500 other things you could spend your money on. how many $5000 4x4 toyota pickups could you buy for the price of 1 charger that will live on pavement?

Yep. But it’s more complicated than that. Fiat is a powerful name. They own lots of brands including Ferrari and Maserati too.

Well, sounds fun but how can you use it?  Speed limits, Red/Blue lights, tickets?  I would rather have an old classic to play with.  Or a toy or truck etc.  Ya just cant use a car like that.  Sure are impressive I admit but I would get in trouble.  Its like having an AR with no ammo.  :chuckle:
MAGA!  Again..
