Awesome! Competition improves the breed. You have to admit, vallet mode is pretty cool

ummmm damn!!!! sign me the **** up! but as said its still as heavy as cruise liner, that said, I dont see it getting into the 11's

Whats wrong with some of you lol. If the current model can run 12.2 @ 114 what makes you think with 130+ more HP and that 8 speed auto it wont be in the 11's?

Any word on the blower specs? I didn't see it in the article.

Rumors are the motor is extremely stout, with an actual forged assembly.

Too bad manufacturers like Ford don't offer the option to add forged internals to your order. I don't know how feasible that would be. But it would be bad ass.

I didn't see it either but I would have to assume a 2.3L TVS for cost reasons.

Its not a 392 i dont think, its a supercharged 6.2. The 392 is still available however.

If this makes it into the 300/Charger I will have on in a few years.

I have seen a testing video of a Charger with this engine so I would assume it will. Not sure about the 300 although that would be nice.

I sooooo hope this motor makes into the 300/Charger at some point.

I am not sure if what I heard is 100% accurate but I know they are dropping the 300SRT and I have heard they have shoved this motor into a charger. I'm sure the new SRT charger will have this. I heard the next generation 300 will still have the current 6.4L as an option to but it won't be called the SRT.

Love it!

faptastic.

This has to be 70k at least. Hipo dodge cars are never affordable. Must be that Mopar Magic they charge a premium for

Yes please

That's a sweet car. Definitely looks awesome and with a forged, supercharged engine will be a beast.

Look guys we can make a fast car too! - Chrysler

6.2L, supercharged...still under 600hp probably!

The need to look into putting it on a massive diet. then it might contend.

I thought they were killing the Jeep SRT8 and 300 SRT-8 lineup?

^^this all day.

Dodge has seen what people will pay for top-trim sports cars (Shelby GT500, Camaro ZL1, etc.).

They will be out to get their piece of the pie, and since the Challenger was already more expensive than Mustang and Camaro, expect the top trim to continue the trend.

Sad, because I would love to have this car. But at the I-can-almost-guarantee-it price point of $70k+, there's no way in hell I would buy it.
