Light weight wheels for the first EV muscle car?
It did cross my mind but being they are starting from scratch I don't see them using skinny 18" on the front and 17" on the rear on an AWD car

The guy I got my info from has been right about everything he's told me in the past, so we'll see. I've got a fast car so I'm not up for any shananigans though personally. I don't do ADM and can't really see $100K for a Challenger so there's that.

Oh great your telling me something badder ass than the WB Challenger looks is coming. No no no no this means I will have to buy one😳
Don’t worry, CC. I’ll take the T/A off your hands. I’ll give it a good home! Nice warm garage, driven almost daily. Don’t you worry. She’ll be well loved for years to come! Lol

Exactly. I personally have an 80k limit regardless of the awesomeness factor. I love cars but tbh theyre toys. I dont play with toys enough to justify anything more. It's why I didnt buy a Demon even at MSRP back in '18. Optioned my way wouldve been 100k.
With that being said I am curious about the swan song edition.

It's going to have to be pretty bad ass to make me not buy my 69 Charger this year. [022179].jpg

My swan song is my 18 Charger. I see no reason to replace it.

Would require 150K+ (low mile no mods) but I see your point...

I MAY have heard something like this a while back from a known source...

Seems like the cat is (coming) out of the bag...

:unsure::whistle:
Alright Bull, time to SPILL IT! You know something that we don't (and I'm not talking about engineering minutia)! :cool:

Consider yourself the new RESUME SPEED! ;)

BOO!! (n) Come on man...you cant' tease. That's :poop:!

Ok at least tell us if it will eclipse the Demon (performance-wise). Or is it more of a re-re-configuration of what's already out there (in a parts bin/Frankensteinian sort of way)?

I have a hard time believing Dodge (read: anti-performance EuroStelantis) would sign off on investing significant RD $$ one year before the platform dies...

The honest truth was that I got basically the same information (and not any more) than what is in @Speedy!'s quote above, nearly verbatim. So close that it makes me wonder if it's from the same source and we just don't both realize it... :unsure:

So in the end of it all, the source I got it from did the same thing to me that I did to you... o_O


I wasn't even going to share what I did until this thread was started and I saw @Speedy!'s verbiage and was surprised at how close it was...

Hell yes. Someday maybe. My first cell phone was as big as a cooler.
Just wishful thinking I guess.
