not to mention the Challenger SRT's brake stand looks like that of a v-6 mustang.

540 huh. Pulley change and a tune and they'll easily get more than that...
For the 50K crowd. That is tough to beat. I hope GM steps up. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't. I'm not sure if a car like this is in the cards with everything GM is going through... Well done Ford.

not a fan of the inside, exteriors fine but interior just ruins it for me. So overall: 4/10, because I can.
