Congrats on the new car! Now go away. I didn’t like that color when it first came out but it’s growing on me. I had a 12 Charger R/T and it was a fun car. Those HEMI’s pull. Good luck with it.

New cars are always a shot of the good stuff. Congrats! Reminds me of "the Green Hornet".

I understand the auto vs manual thing in DD traffic. I've owned enough manuals in the city, including a 74 Z28 with a heavy clutch. The only reason I'm not driving a new ZL1 1LE or GT350 is that they aren't available in an auto.

I'm definitely in. Just have to get some km's on her before the launch mode will activate. I want to see what this thing does stock on the dyno and in the 1/4 mile. Then the mods will come.

This is a brand new car. the dealership lowered it and tinted it to display in their show room. Between the stance and the color I was hooked.

I'm going to check out the Mopars of Toronto, thanks!

That color, like it or not is head turning.
Thanks! The pictures don't do any justice.

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!
Lol I can see that. I will take better pics. It's a green metallic paint. I don't see this color anywhere.

Beautiful! If I'm ever forced to step down to one vehicle that can handle winter/summer/family duties that exact car would be in my top 3. The other 2 would be the same car in Destroyer Grey or a Kia Stinger in Ceramic Grey. I don't know why the F8 green gets so much hate though, I love it... even moreso on the Challengers.

Oh and btw, you'll be fine with a good set of snow tires. I had some Falken Eurowinters on my old 300C and that thing went from being a roller skate in the snow to an absolute tank. We had record snowfalls the one year and I was plowing through 1-2 feet of fresh snow with ease. One time I pulled up behind my neighbor's 4WD truck that was stuck at the bottom of his driveway, got out to help him push it into his garage, and then casually drove off in my RWD sedan. The look on his face was priceless. lol

Yeah I missed the Canada part, and correct would have to have been used. Just curious, would have been interesting to hear an opinion from someone who drove/shopped both.
