Oh, but it does. Someone supposedly bought this 2010 in '11, AFTER it sat in inventory for a very l-o-n-g time...likely because of the colour (Cdn).

$28K for a new R/T in Canada is a deal ONLY someone with a gun and a mask could get...unless they had a significant trade-in, or it was a previous daily rental, or it fell off the truck during delivery, or someone had pictures of the dealer smokin' crack with Mayor Rob Ford. That's why I asked for a copy of the non-existent-at-that-price-Brand-New b.o.s. Jeez, Louise, someone can't get the Model Year straight on a car they claim to "own"...

Obfuscating the "facts" (said it was an '11, and now we know it's a '10, for instance)...which now makes any other "facts" shared as "questionable".

http://wwwa.autotrader.ca/cars/dodge...prc=True&rcs=0

$28K would have been the 4-year LEASE obligation, including fees and taxes, for this car back then...and then a healthy buy-out...

90+% of their posts are in this thread, and others Mopar-related, certainly confirming they loves those Mopars...the 392 model gussied up with a blower motor, especially. And that's fine, too.

Just keep the "facts" straight. Or "inquiring minds" may ask questions...

If you care to look under what I drive I have 2010 FF RT never said I have a 2011
you have just read that in into my post.

Right place at the right time on the RT, it did sit on the lot for a long time Dealers in 2010 were holding onto the FF's as there was only 127 RT's in Canada and asking for a Prem on them well into the end of 10 in 11 Dodge in the Toronto area had a SRT FF and a RT on the lot they cut the RT loose to me at a loss they said, what do I care if they sold it for under 30k but you do LOL.

LOL, true. The quickest GT500 I have seen is 11.2.............. At Atco on a cold day which means the density was around -1000 feet. put a Hellcat in those conditions and 10s shouldn't be a problem on stock tires for either transmission lol.

Ya know, about 100 of your 147 posts are in this thread. When you grow up, are you going to be a Mopar salesman, so you can drive Purdy Pink cars like this? Thought so...

I really like this ! Sweet looking beast! I like the two oranges, the 392 inaugural edition white with blue and blue with white stripes, and this Color!

That interior and the taillights I don't really care for! Except the section where the stick shifter is!

It would be more meaningful with data like this. Lots of straight. little turn. Perfect for the Kitty

It'd be nice if it could but as of now its on par with the GT500 and about 5k more.

A little trivia to agitate the thread.......

Hellcat was the name of a Buick design in the 40's

The old patch may be appropriate

The problem with this is the 11:20 time for the 500 is an unconfirmed run in ideal condition and it has never been duplicated in 2+ years of 500 owners trying, even in similar conditions. Many 500s with DRs can't hit this time. Your average 100% stock 500 time is 11:70s-12:00s, you will see this at any track on any given weekend. In my opinion for the manual Hellcat this is the time to beat. With the automatic Hellcat well let the excuses begin. As of now Dodge's claim of 11:20s is also suspect so we will have to wait and see.

5k more maybe but there sure aren't many 55k 500s being purchased as the majority of owners prefer the optioned car. Most of which come standard on the Hellcat.

Well said and so true. The best ET I've seen a stock '13 GT500 hit was 11.9 on DR's. There also was a supercharged '13 GT running mid 11's on almost every run.

Also good point on the msrp. I've never seen a '13-14 GT500 sell new at $55K. most were in the low 60's.

Wait for a Top Gear comparison test, coming to a TV near you...

...and I'll bet Clarkson (BUICK Hellcat) destroys James May in the Mopar...

Someone needs to share this on a Challenger site: YOU'VE BEEN CHALLENGED!
