I would love one of these as a way to unleash some stress a few times a week. Sure my tire budget would cost than Motley Crues coke habit but man that would be a good time.

Yeah, they really nailed it with the wide body design. This is the best looking Challenger to date imo and the first time I would pick one over a Mustang, or Camaro.  Looks just right without any of that overwrought tack-on plasticky stuff, big spoilers, or goofy paint schemes that they tend to do with this format.  Looks good in that colour too.  Well done!   :thumbup:

I saw where some guy got arrested for doing 198 mph in a Hellcat in Georgia. He got caught because he posted the video online  ::)

I saw a Trackhawk in the wild the other day with my wife in the car.  It pulled out of a parking lot in front of me.  At first I thought it was a 'regular' SRT, but then saw the little trackhawk badge on the back.  I pointed it out to my wife and told her it was a very special kind of beast.

^^I think that's kinda the point though, isn't it?  The Trackhawk is a bit of a sleeper (big exhaust note notwithstanding).

yeah, that's why I'm not sure on it... I guess if you are forking over 6 digits for your vehicle, you likely don't need to be super flashy, as you KNOW what you have..

People will know once you open it up and they hear that supercharger whine...
