I took a ride in a Hellcat Challenger this past weekend, it same to our local cruise night via the local dealership. Pretty neat car, first car I rode in where the cpu screen in the center said 700+ horsepower unlocked (had the red key)! Its a lot more sophistiocated at 700 hp than a true hot rod would be, to say the least, not much noise at idle, had a neat sound when revved up and jumped hard for a burst in 1st (standard trans) I however would rather have my 700 hp in a streetrod shaking the ground at idle and looking the part of hotrod, if I was a "new" hotrod guy who didn't mind a payment this would be my car (vs all others out there) but I'm not, fun to ride in but I'm not ready to give up my true rod's for this one yet!
