They also need to bring back the Challenger T/A there has to be a lightweight version they can make before the Challenger kicks the bucket in a couple years.

“lightweight” version of the Challenger?

So, what, only 4,200 lb?

I thought they did with Panther Pink and Furious Fuchisa.

I’ve been driving a base model for a couple of days now. I can say with some certainty that 305 hp isn’t enough for the weight of this car. It has given me a new appreciation for the hp/weight ratio in my WRX.

they need to bring back a few more of those high impact colors, they are doing pretty good, but the STRIPES..........

The sad thing is, with the 5.7 Hemi, it’s too much power for the rear tires. The 6.4 is really the only somewhat balanced one.

I haven’t driven the other ones, so I’ll just have to take your word for it. I have to say that the Hellcat version looks pretty neat, although I think I’d want the Hellcat Charger. On the other hand, if the Challenger feels porky to me, the Charger must be worse. I already know the Charger can’t handle like my WRX thanks to a friend of mine bringing his R/T Charger to a track day a couple of years ago .

Dang. I’m spoiled.

Oh sweet! Too bad they didn’t try to add some lightness.

Yeah but 1/2 years only run. I want to see it on the new Hellcat and Scat Pack

The honestly drive the same. Once a car weighs that much, a couple hundred pounds won’t make that big of a difference. The charger does ride a little better because of the longer wheelbase though.

I’ll have to see if I can score a Charger for the next rental.
