[QUOTE="ANGREY, post: 15811161, member: 188865"] What a waste. The one thing that the Demon/Hellcat had going for it, the ONLY thing that made it unique was that the Charger is a roomy passenger car that is moderately fast in a straight line. The challenger is a pig. The charger is a pig, but at least has reason to be. There's no need for a 2 door coupe to weigh 4400 lbs. Even from a drag/straight line perspective, it's counterproductive. You can get mustangs and Camaros from various dealers who feature dealer specific "packages" with full warranty, on PUMP gas (not race fuel) that will drag the demon/hellcat for 2/3 of the cost and go around a track much better in the process. Again, the only thing that differentiated the Demon/Hellcat was the charger version and the whole "I can drop my kids off at school and go to the drag strip" feature. With the charger, you get a 4400 lb pig that does OKAY in a straight line and pay way too much for the factory warranty (compared to other platforms). Most of us graduate from straight line to a whole car concept at some point. Back in your seat acceleration is obviously the biggest part of a performance car experience. But I compare street cars that can't brake or turn to guys who go to the driving range but can't chip or putt or put together a round of golf to save their lives. I'll always love American muscle and I'm not a Euro/Ricer douche who has the same tired arguments, but can't we get a Dodge 2 door that doesn't weigh nearly as much as a pickup truck? Even if you don't like turning, the extra weight just kills what could be an awesome drag car. [/QUOTE]
