Default Official Dodge Challenger SRT8 Unveil

She's beautiful:






And She's got power:
6.1L Hemi
425hp
420lb/ft

But She's a BIG bitch:
4140lbs curb weight and as a result not so quick, estimated 13.9 second quarter mile. I love the looks, but that performance definitely leaves something to be desired.

She responds to blowing too. . .

Wasn't there some talk of like a classic 426 Hemi at well over 500?

At 4140 lbs, even with 500hp it wouldn't be any better than a high 12 sec car...

Neither will your pullied Cobra be, which still won't be in the 10s. (Nor will I, but I prefer to leave that part out.)

LOL, the back is my favorite part (Alexis too). I love the look of the car, just not a fan of the weight. But if you have a 700hp Blown Hemi, the weight really isn't an issue
