And?
People act like only GM cars are being recalled......
They seem to be the only ones recalling a new block of vehicles every week.
My above post was meant in jest. You need to lighten up.

Anyone know if they'll put this engine in the Charger? Need space for the wife and kid I currently drive an RX8 with a Car seat and a stroller in the trunk
Wow really where?They have already announced that they are. My guess is the 2017 car.

Heck $60K for a 700+ HP car is in "Shut up and take my money" category. I just bought a 2014 Dodge Durango so once I am done paying it half way or so, I'll be looking at this or the new RX7
What's under the hood? 2015 Dodge Challenger Hellcat 6.2L Supercharged Hell HEMI Revealed
An excellent video talking all about the ins and outs of the engine.
Man I love it. I got the R/T Trim with AWD, with every option under the sun minus the engine block heater. The biggest sell was my wife and she loves it as well. Nothing came close to the price based on the options I chose. You truly get a lot for your money. I got Nav,Sunroof, Tow, Tech pack, Rear Blu ray for $45K. I could have gotten it lower but there was only one truck with all those options and AWD where I live in the south. That AWD was hard to find since down south there is no need for AWD.How you like the Durango? It's amazing how they transformed that from a heap of crap with parts-bin galore into a cohesive, attractive vehicle. I admire each one I see on the road. And everything I've seen points to a great ride. Great reviews.
It's a rocket ship no need to handle. Strap your seat belt say a hail Mary and punch the gas pedal.A lot of power and straight line speed. But I guess you gotta wait to see how it handles.

Still reading those Euro auto mags from 1991 huh?
Edmunds said:As tempting as all that horsepower may be, the Hellcat's $60K price tag puts it in some pretty exclusive territory. Better make sure you're fine with owning the drag strip, as there are plenty of cars at this price point that will leave the Hellcat in their tracks when the road turns twisty.
Normally, a car that weighs 4,439 pounds wouldn't be considered all that capable of cornering, but the Hellcat far exceeded expectations. At the limit, the car feels surprisingly balanced even though the weight is biased 57 percent toward the front. Understeer is rare and the big Challenger reacts exceptionally well to trail braking deep toward the apexes.
It doesn't corner with the kind of urgency and quickness that embody sports cars weighing much less, but it is just as rewarding in a more leisurely style.
Based on documentation for the Hellcat engines SAE output, we can confirm that the 707-hp supercharged Hemi will also make its way into the Charger SRT sedan next year.
I'm patiently waiting for the Grand Cherokee to get it...... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!
I would doubt it, with a high center of gravity and that kind of power it's a rollover waiting to happen, plus it would up the price to the point that other competing SUV's would come in much cheaper and with more features. Whats cool about this car is the level of program-ability built into it, and the "valet" mode on the key FOB that turns it into a kitty-Kat so someone parking it won't be around the corner doing epic burnouts that Bruce Springsteen would write a song about while your eating dinner..

Even a mildly detuned version would be ok, say 701hp!
