yup. just waiting for plates.

They're both great for very different reasons.

The Hellcat's ability to pull in a straight line, while still be a little fun in the curves and be all day fun crushing miles is great.

The R has nothing down low and always need to be rung out. Handling, shifter and high reving v8 are a beautiful thing.

Personally, I think the doge fit and finish is slightly better. The 6-700lbs difference is huge, of course.

I realize the hellcat is closer in the pic, but it looks huge next to the mustang.

I have a second set from the dodge, and threw this on with worn out track tires to make a trip.

Brass monkey's are back on after burning these up

So curious, how do you still like the hellcat? I have been debating in trading my wife's SRT Jeep in for a Charger Hellcat but not sure if it would be as comfy as the Jeep. Currently we have a 14 SRT with 57k miles ($36k) and dealer offered us trade plus $12k for a 2016 Charger Hellcat with 6700 miles. To me I think it would be a good swap but I don't know if that is a good price. I think between $8-10K would be the sweet spot.
