Dodge just announced that the 2015 Challenger SRT Hellcat will deliver 707 hp, in addition to 650 lb-ft of torque. Let us repeat. 707 horsepower. That's more than the last Corvette ZR1. More than the new Corvette Z06. Did we mention that's more than the frickin' Viper's V10?

Can I get that Challenger painted orange with a Confederate flag on top and an “01” on the sides?

Yeah, but it’s a Dodge.

It’ll go 0-60 in about 5 seconds, but if you go faster than 60 the wheels fall off and the transmission seizes.

Like a guy I knew back in the 70s, always traded up for the new Dodge muscle car every year - Super Bee sixpack on the 440, but he always had to get an automatic, cuz his wife couldn’t drive a stick. Talk about getting the bizness!

If it isn’t AWD (ala the Nissan GT-R)...

...or it doesn’t have downforce surfaces galore (ala Z06, or any of the winged hypercars)...

...then good luck getting all that horsepower transformed into forward motion!
