looking at the option list I only see 4 options really for the Hellcat so not sure what you are talking about

Is "rich Corinthian Leather" (or some such name) an option? How much? Domestic cattle give up their hides for EACH ZL1...

"Smart marketing, when you only have the capability to market ONE "halo" instead of TWO, as Ford (GT500-BOSS) and GM (ZL1-Z/28) provided"

I'm thinking you left the Hellcat Charger off the list of yours because it has 4 doors and only a woman would drive a 4 door 707hp sedan (your comments) so I guess the guy with 3 kids and has to have a 4 door does not count.

Yes, he certainly does. And what are Mopar's expected sales of this fine piece? It's main market may be southern Sheriffs with a lust for "high-speed pursuit ve-hicles..."

In Canada GM has two rear drive cars both are not family friendly (sadly) as I fall into the category of needing a family car.

Try a CTS, for le$$ dough than the Charger Daytona (wing optional) Sergio Series...


Then we can add the Viper as a Halo car (I know low sales) there are rumours that this will get 800hp in the next refresh.
Hell, Dodge dealers don't even ORDER 'em, let alone SELL 'em. How many have they assembled in the last 60 days? And, at 800 hp and a $150K+ tag, that will be the version to SAVE THE SNAKE? OK, then...

Memo to Sergio: Yank the Viper's V10, stuff it full of Tomcat-blowed V8, drop the price to $89,900...and Bob's yer uncle... Oh, and change this version's name to Mongoose...
