It weighs more than a ZL1, without MRC as a Standard Feature. It doesn't have brakes like the Z/28.

By the time you "fully equip it" for ALL motorsports challenges, and challengers (small case), the price will NOT be sub-$60...

FACT.

Here is your problem and it’s a really big one. This Hellcat will be capable of thoroughly embarrassing the stock ZL1, Z/28s, and most head to head GT500 encounters in the forum that 99% of us play with our vehicles (street & strip) in, 99% of the time.
Fact is Chevy doesn’t have an answer and now looks really bad pricing the Z/28 at 75k. The only hope is that Chevy will “Finally” offer upgraded HP for 16.
So if you want to lay all your hope on the 1% go ahead
