yes baby. all the muscle cars are showing up again. Long live the fuel burnin, mega horsepower, torque launching, seat crushing cruisers man. cheers to that! Now all that they need to bring back is the gran torino. (sorry if i butchered the spelling)

A badge on a car means nothing. These new charges doesn't mean all out total horsepower and raw torque like the old ones. These will be considerably tamed. Just like the GTO and everything else.

thats what i was thinkin too. im sorry but im not just a "ford" guy, or a "chevy" guy or a "dodge" guy . i like any kind of car as long as it performs and looks good and all that. im just a "car" guy. and the new GTO isnt tamed. its just grossly overweight and too bulky. if 350 horsepower is tame, then technically every mustang but the 03 and 04 cobra is tame.

Yeah it'll be real cool, right till you start seeing SRT 8 Charger tail lights rapidly fade away from your Stang
It will weigh 800 lbs more that the stang. I like those odds.

Stats I've seen on Dodge's site show development of a 5.7 Hemi with 353 hp and 395 ft. lbs. that would probably be the R/T Charger power plant. And in an SRT 8 Hemi version, bump that to 430 hp and 480 ft. lbs. Looks like 800 lbs won't be much of an equalizer.
I wonder if they will have a base V6 Charger with the 3.5 HO 250 hp engine.
acooljt, thats how ALL hp figures work. cobra makes 390 at the flywheel. so it works just like any other muscle car. let me correct my first sentence. I hardly call 350 hp at the flywheel tame.
