The styling is...interesting. I don't know what to think about it. I guess its not just the hellcat but all new chargers will be kinda ugly up front. hmmm

A buddy just traded in his Challenger SRT8 (indirectly) for new Cayman S. He is a diehard Dodge guy but said he is done as he thought the SRT8 was a one trick pony and no way would an even more extreme example be any more rewarding. The Hellcat is good for bragging rights and that's about it in the real world.

It all comes down to what you're going to do with it. I don't see my family sedan hitting the track. I'd have to drive one to see how it handles but I cannot imagine it's a truck. Cannot wait

"...But sometimes you need to stop listening to the focus groups"

I wish other car manufacturers thought that way from time to time.
