They actually going to put a stick on this one or is it going to be just another big RWD autotragic Chrysler strapped onto the Hemi marketing campaign?

I hope they don’t change much around from the concept and ruin the car. Look at what happened with the Charger :bloated:. If they keep it very similar to the concept, this will be one very hot car cruisin around

Mopar Performance has a 6.4L Hemi (510hp) crate motor, hopefully they will use that for the SRT-8 version. That would be one sick ride.

i have a dodge hat that i rolled the brim and wrote dodge = suck on it. I wore it to thursday in the square.

However, that car looks pretty cool. I still think it seems too big… Old muscle cars, while large, don’t seem as bulky.

the only way this thing could ever be cool is if they put a MB motor in it, 6.5L turbo ftw
