I agree. Looks better than the other new Chargers but still looks too much like an oversized Dart.

I'm confused.

Yea, I love the challengers and the chargers are cool! So I have no problem with them being faster or having nice interior ! These are muscle cars so having great interior isn't high on the list! Well until now! And all of the muscle car designs I like more than any luxury car design. So I don't hate the Dodge interior , Just like the Camaro's. and mustang 's better!

If anything, the SS should be renamed Chevelle for the next gen and make a 2 door and 4 door version of it. Build it off the Alpha like the CTS, ATS and Camaro.

If I can buy a Hellcat on Monday and have a pulley, cam, revised intake, and tune etc done by Friday - the Hellcat will be a winner in my book.

Reading on Viper forums over the frustration that even the Gen IV owners are dealing with (locked ECU) - it wont take much to make even the SS Camaro or the SS sedan beat a Hellcat

I mean they are building this car for their "5%" group that wants more. I wondered if they bothered to ask that same 5% - how many would modify their stock car to go faster

To me this has been SRT/Dodge's fatal flaw. I love my Ram - but i have no intentions on making it faster.

It won't take much for a Camaro SS, or SS Sedan to beat the Hellcat- Really you can't be serious.

For the Camaro SS, I think it would take an automatic car with cam/heads/headers/bolt-ons/ converter /DRs even then it might be tough. Remember 11:00-11:20s is the number. You better leave the auto modified ZL1s to play with this Charger.

Also locked ECU or not the car is already capable of 11:00s on stock rubber, add a quality DR to it and 10:60s-10:80s should be there.

Oh, no! This car definitely don't deserve the Chevelle name! But I do think that Chevy should bring back the chevelle but only to replace the 2016 cCamaro. Because I don't won't to see the Camaro lose its attractiveness.

Agree. Pontiac tried that with the GTO name and look how unpopular that was.

The name SS is confusing so perhaps a move into another direction would be better. Like Pontiac did with G8 or Caddy did with CTS, ATS...
