You get to say you are one of the few Hemi 392 owners who stepped DOWN in HP.

lol yes I guess compared to the camaro then yes the camaro was quite a bit faster. This 6.4 has 485hp and 475tq but with this 8 speed transmission the power delivery is really something else. I swear they under rated this engine or its just the way the power is delivered. I just got sick of shifting gears and always playing catch up when I did race other auto's. Don't you worry though, I have plans for this charger. I'm taking it to the dyno shop in a week to get the base line stock numbers and see what we have. If I could get in the 500 to 550rwhp N/A range I will be happy until the FI bug hits me again.

Good luck with the new ride. The color isn't for me but it's your ride not mine. Lots of goodies available for those 392's too!

witenite · 07-16-2018, 07:07 PM

Nice new ride! I like the color.

zr1chris · 07-16-2018, 07:58 PM

I've never seen one that color. Can't say I like it but I do like the fact you don't see it often which is cool.

SecondZ28 · 07-16-2018, 08:13 PM

Congrats. I love the Challenger looks, but the Charger is just so much more useful with 4-doors and kids.

for a DD, You made the right choice

rontammy0 · 07-16-2018, 08:59 PM

I will let you know when I get a few guys going to run at St Thomas Dragway Park. Lets see how it does.

Nice colour.....looks expensive.

Couldn't ask for a better stance on a 4 door grocery getter.
That color, like it or not is head turning.

Nice colour and congrats on the new ride. Is it brand new or used? I ask cuz u said its lowered already. Good that u don't have to do that mod now. Now u can join Mopars of Toronto. Lots of guys around ur area

I’m going to surmise the picture doesn’t do the color justice. If it does, then it looks like a bowl of Andersen’s pea soup. But enough people here like it to suggest they, or I, are color blind. Or are drawn like a frog to a lilly pad.

I see a lot more of these flat and gloss, machine gray cars around now too. Those and this one may grow on me over time. But in any event, drive it in good health!

True Chargers don't have 4 doors, good luck tho1

joshnmn · 07-17-2018, 06:24 AM

I think it's a great looking car. I love the colors.

It's not a Camaro, but at least it's not a Furd.
