How many tens of thousands of those are running around?

My comment about the auto was pointing out the fact that the two manual Failcats tested so far ran a 12.5 (Edmunds) and 12.0 (Road&Track). Color me unimpressed.
Well, since Hellcats are just now being delivered, no one has really seen them out on the streets yet. Give it a few months, you will. Then let us know how that goes.

No matter what the tested track results are (may vary with real world results), not an issue for me as I don't track my cars. For guys that do, yeah it's a valid point if that is what someone is buying the car for (if I were, I would be going with the ZL1). I like the fact that the car has straight line power that will be hard to match for any other car straight from the factory, can seat 5 (4 adults comfortably) with a huge trunk for an every day use car, and can be had with an 8 spd auto which mine will be.
