Cool, till it’s out warranty.
Can't wait to see what these do with a tune
Break faster?
its just crazy to me how fast cars are getting. I know it has been going on for several years. to some extent I wonder if the never ending need to get better numbers will make the cars less fun on the street. still very impressive to me. I wonder how much faster we will see cars get to 100mph or even 130mph? i think the 0-60 metric has been made much less relevant over the last few years with the power and speed these cars have know.
I remember in 2008 my dad got a 911 turbo I found it so amazing it would do 60 in under 4 seconds and it ran hight 11's now those numbers are rather pedestrian.
I don't get all the Hellcat hate. Why would someone in a $60-65K Dodge care about potentially losing to a brand new $100K+ BMW? I get that anybody buying a Hellcat definitely cares about performance and being fast, but at the end of the day, they go home in a car that costs half the price, is still nice by any standard, and didn't lose that bad to begin with. Plus they have a car that won't nickel and dime them to death if they choose to keep it to 150-200K.
I don't know, I'm just saying; give me a Hellcat and some stickier than stock tires (hell, ET Streets for all I care) and I'd love to meet this M5.
What I'm saying is, the "muh 707hp" meme doesn't hold weight when all they do is smoke tires. It's like the "1000hp 11 second" supra meme from years ago.
And yes, when you "modify" the car from it's factory specification, of course performance will improve. Although I don't think it's going to cut 10.8's on an un-prepped surface.
M5 will be a bargain soon as it drives of the lot, it will be worth 48k with 4 miles on it.
It's also not gonna cut 10.8's with AWD disabled, which would actually make this comparison apples to apples.
All I'm saying is I don't understand why a Hellcat was even brought into this conversation. I still don't see the issue with throwing a proper tire on an otherwise stock car.
