Unlike the surprise......

......650 HP bomb.....

.......that Ford dropped out of nowhere...

.....I am giving full disclosure .....

...that Dodge is preparing....to attack

.....Cause I like you guys...

LOL- The new Challengers are nice and the new Charger is ok its an improvement on the previous Charger at least BUT with that being said you are crazy if you think putting 590hp in a big car is going to be faster than a ZL1 Camaro. The Charger doesnt have the Magnetic handling the ZL1 has and the technology of the car is better than the Charger plus a 10hp advantage isnt enough to counter its weight problem. In the turns and road course the ZL1 would win for sure, in a straight line it probably still wins.

I would def drive a ZL1 before I took a Charger R/T with the 426......

But trust me........those are gonna be damn fast in a straight line......

A stock 392 auto can hump along in the low 12's....and thats only 470 HP...

Now add in 120 more HP....and prob 120 more TQ......proper tires.....

........that big sedan is in the 11's...... easy

You realize the 2 cars would be nearly the same weight? The current Charger Hemis all have iron blocks, the 426 is all Aluminum. The ZL1 is around 4150 pounds, stock Charger R/T around 4200, if the switch to all Aluminum drops just 50 punds, that is enough to even the weight and the Charger still has more power. in the turns, who knows. The latest upgrades to the LX/LY suspensions have made them into decent handling beasts, ZL1 will rpobably be better, but they are going to be much closer than what you want to think. And something to keep in mind, even if this upgrade costs 20k, a Charger R/T starts at 30k, or 25k LESS than a ZL1, hell, you would have 5k left to upgrade that susopension to match or better the ZL1s!

I wonder if they will offer it with the 32k Charger R/T AWD???? 590 HP and AWD, that would be pretty sweet

LOL, hilarity and hypocracy at it's finest, so when you do it in a Mustang post it's A-OK?

Well, 2012 is supposed to be the end of the world, so who cares about what's going to happen to the environment or natural resources.........let the gear heads have some fun and we'll all go out in a massive smoke show

You do care....

Thats why you clicked on the thread.....you just couldnt resist when you saw 590 HP 426 Hemi...

...Cmon....admit it.....it's OK

....Nothing wrong with seeing what the competition is doing......

....If Chevy had your supposed attitude you would never have the ZL1

....that only exists because of the GT500.......

Thats cool for Dodge fans, but the Charger is ugly and the Camaro is HOT!
