and if you would take this car over any bmw, even a slow ass one, u have to be one dumb hillbilly
ciao

as for making that power with a little modding on an sti / evo, sure if you consider full exhaust a turbo swap and tune a little modding… lmao.. then you have ****ty low end due to turbo lag.. not to mention ****ty mileage out of a 4 banger..

ahahahaha brainiacs.

Oddglat: ["Ferrari can get 800bhp with a 6.2L"]

Here we are again with the HP/liter nonsense
Let’s take the Z06 for example.

Here is the deal: I had $70K, I wanted the best performance, could care less about how they make it. Electric would do, make that in HP/liter
To me the fact that X Japanese or Y German car’s engine makes 100 HP/liter is nothing. My Z06 makes only 72 HP/liter, but 505 HP in total. The total power matters, the weight of the car, the dynamics, the handling, the brakes, etc. The Z06 will stomp over any of those import cars in the same price range. You want to beat my Z06? Then you have to spend 2-3 times more money and even then, it will be a very close race.

You want HP/liter? Get whatever you want for the same money ($70K) and then tell me if your car comes in the same performance league as the C6 Corvette Z06.
Go ahead and overpay for the Japanese or German sports cars.
I have got the best performance I can get for my money.
See you at the race track

The problem with Dodge is their engines are the only thing they have going for them. Their interior and exterior designs are antiquated and cheap. If they fail at designing the engine (425 hp from 6.1L is a failure), there is no reason to buy the vehicle.

I noticed that you were ragging on GM’s 3.6 engine just the other day for not making enough power/displacement. This struck me as odd because your name is “55amg.” The 5.5 in the SLK55 amg only makes 355 hp for 5.5 L of displacement. That would give a European car a worse ratio than an American car.

I am not a fan of the over-detailed chunky styling DCX is indulging in. If the Challenger looks at least 80-90% in step with the concept then I’m sold.

The engine is pretty good as ever…

For import fans: More displacement = more potential for power. Most modern American “muscle engines” come from NASCAR development, and other auto racing programs. A few minor, bolt-on changes, and a 425HP 6.1L V-8 will easily jump past 600HP. You really can’t do that with a 2.0L 4cyl, at least , without having to buy a new engine that will cost as much as or more than the car you’re putting it in.

Now for a car worth the power that doesn’t cost a small fortune…

I would suspect it is substantially higher than the SRT8 in question lmao.

could it be in the new RS6 which will ding you 75k, and still have reliability problems?

asshat.

all the import bashes can keep their unreliable underpowered tanks.

Underpowered, yes because we know that every vehicle on the road has over 425 HP and a 0-60 of ~5 s or less…..

American companies use OHV engines in the lower end cars and OHC in the expensive ones (for the most part).

To me and many other Americans, there is nothing better than the affordability, simplicity (think cheap and easy modifications), SOUND, power, and torque on the low-end that comes from a small block V8.

Now, go color in your book. Good boy.

WHY DONT THEY TAKE A NOTE from Audi?in the 80’s they where hated in the us but they engineered their cars to perfection now they can get 425bhp from a 4.2L V8, THE SAME AS THE 6.1L hemi! Now the domestics are getting too complacent playing the patriotic card to sell sub-standard, out dated cars, but sadly US car buyers can see though this pathetic facade.

come on America STOP being lazy with your car engineering because this is a joke.

No interior shots and if I am to understand correctly, that is where the bigest change is.

p.s. what are all these great mids doing blogging when auto makers need help.. Call DCX, they’ll give you a job :tard:.. LMAO.
