They should just drop the hellcat engine in it, and drop the price. The Hellcat challenger has a wind resistance issue, this car does not. I was never fond of the sound either of a V10 vs a V8. Car may be even lighter, not sure, with the Hellcat V8.

If they did that, maybe it would be built in one of the other plants building the current cars with the hellcat engine, saving even more cost. They already have all the tooling, they would just have to move it to one of the other plants.

That is too cool looking of a car, I doubt it will die off easily without atleast one more transformation.

I do wish someone would design a car that is like ford's GT40. That car is so cool. They have no competition. If Dodge would do that, I would say go ahead, drop the Viper. We need another 'american big 3' mid engine race car. The engine for it is already done [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
