[QUOTE="2000gt4.6, post: 15617044, member: 123767"] Or...since the only thing that apparently matters is a 1/4 mile time you could buy a 392 Challenger or Charger, spend way way way less money on basically the same parts the demon has, and run faster times while having the same car. Hell, there are plenty of guys on here turning mid 9s in blown coyotes that still have all the creature comforts. For sure a hell of alot less invested than 125k, or even 85. I get the point of a performance version of a car. But I don't get the point of a 1/4 mile version of the car. Especially one that's gonna cost 125k plus to get in the garage. Point is, for far less money you could build a faster car on the exact same platform. What's tough is building something like a ZL1 or 350R which will do many things well, and not beat you to death doing it. This car is a more badass Dodge version of a Saleen or Roush in my opinion. Grab a ton of aftermarket parts anyone can buy, toss em on the car, and charge four times what the parts cost. So far as it being the fastest production car in the 1/4 mile... Yeah, it is. The problem is nobody else ever really tried to make one (car focused on 1/4 mile). Kid yourself not, if any of the mentioned cars (lfa etc) were focusing on 1/4 mile it wouldn't be the fastest. Congratulations, you've won a one man race. I don't hate the car, but it's pure dumb to compare it to a super or hypercar, and it's not in the same category at all. [/QUOTE]
