Not Butt hurt at all. My SS can out do a Zl1 any day. Just in comparison Hellcat, GT500 and Zl1 are in same category. With mods and one of the three, challenger, mustang or camaro, can handle well and go fast. Best part of the hellcat is with no mods it is very quick. With no mods the ZL1 only has 480 to the rear wheels. The GT500 pounces that by 80. Once we see a hellcat on a dyno we can then say by how much more.

AS for handling not many people are going to push any one of the 3 to their limit on handling , so handling is a mute point, and if you are one of the few that will push it there are mods you still will want to any one of them. Main point most will car about is how fast it can get from 0-60.

On weight and roadcoarse both the Zl1 and challenger are heavy.I believe they are within 200 lbs of each other. A Z/28 or 2010 SS is best choice for weight. After 2010 GM started adding in HUD and other features adding to weight.which means you have to eliminate more to get weight down to offset for roll cage weight.
