An association of men who will not quarrel with one another is a thing which has never yet existed, from the greatest confederacy of nations down to a town meeting or a vestry. Thomas Jefferson

But at the end of the day, it'd be just another challenger/charger on the road that wouldn't really get noticed. If I was going to get one, it'd definitely be the Charger. I'm in the same boat as Bob (ProSport), I had a 2002 Z28 Camaro for a while and had fun w/ it. Got bored and sold it last year.

I would buy one in a heartbeat to replace my trailblazer SS.....if it could....it has the passenger capacity for the family....but not the towing.

The rods and pistons are different and the cam. Matt

Many like me spent years building your car and it is a nice sense of pride knowing you built it yourself. But as I said along with that I am just to much of a lover of the older muscle cars and will never sell my 63. If I was rich I might buy a Hellcat for my daily driver. Ron

Bur i really like the new chargers and the hellcat charger looks even more bad azz. So today i decided to take what would be a car payment and ad that to a mortgage on a building. In 5 years, ill reflect on this decision to not sell out. Would like a new 200 though so i dont look like a redneck all the time Gen 3 power 6.22@110, 9.85@135 Follow @g3hemiswap on instagram performance only racing, CRT, ultimate converter, superior design concepts, ThumperCarbs

Think, you could pull up in a STOCK 4-door Charger Hellcat and blow his doors off. Drag radials and you're probably running 10.70's. Then A/C and 900 watts, 18 speakers on the ride home. Mine "only" runs 12's and I was top 3 quickest car there that night too.

While agree this is a great concept,,,, I personally have not had positive results from warranty repairs, at dealerships. Quite the opposite in fact. I really don't want them working on my car if I can prevent it. Oh and ............. " YOU DIDN'T BUILD THAT" would apply to the Hell Cats for sure!
