    Re: Dodge Challenger!!!

    You guys who keep saying it's heavy should know that the V6 Camaro is at 3800lbs. That's 500lbs more than our cars. And at 306hp it does 14.4-14.6 1/4 mile. That weight really hurts the car. The magazine haven't mentioned the V8's weight concretely, but it is said to be 4000lbs.

      Those quarter mile times are almost comparable to the Hemi Challenger....

      Not to mention its a one-tire-fire (no LSD)...

      Fail.

      Sorry, but I think the new Mopar "muscle" cars (i.e. 300C, Magnum, Charger, Challenger) are not impressive. I will admit that the Challenger looks awesome, but performance-wise they fall way short. IMO: 5th Gen Camaro > New Mustang > Mopar "muscle" cars

                    so this came into the shop today, and they didnt want the lube-techs to eff it up so i had to change the oil on it.
                    its the hennessy edition of the challenger, the SRT600, number 2 of 50. puts down 600 whp and 585wtq. its a bad mother father.

                      if by similar you mean the challenger has about 300lbs on the camaro then yes. it weighs close to 4300 if i remember right.
