Thats because its a thread about the charger hellcat. Or maybe I'm completely missing the point of your question.

Are there two different Hellcats. Didn't know there was a Charger version.

There is now a Charger version. The general consensus is we like it better than the Challenger version.

I'm reminded how much I hate car "enthusiasts". Mopar page on Facebook talking about it, and the comments are full of people complaining about it being ugly, or not having a manual, or four doors(berkeleying still?) or any other amount of stupid bullE36 M3.

Complain because there aren't many performance cars being made, and when they start making them, complain about them. shiny happy people.

And here I am happy that they stuffed another big scary motor in a 4 door car. Makes me grin like the CTSV did. Now if it somehow revived the magnum, I'd probably poop mahself.

Also, you largely cannot trust the mopar crowd. GRM company excluded, I've not had many positive experiences with them. So- i'd take that whole thread with a grain or several of salt.

Lump me in with the crowd who hate the name Charger attached to a 4 door. But 700+hp would make me forget that. And a lot of other things, too.

Oh the other links about it were just as bad.

Most of the "mopar" crowd I've run into are late comers who don't know what the berkeley they're talking about or morons who think the pinnacle of cars was 1968-70.

As much as I like Chrysler products I tend to avoid most fans like the plague. But that's honestly true of any one make fanboys.

They tried that with the Ram Runner technically, but Chryco couldn't really take the risk with it like Ford could so they stopped offering to build them.

The Hellcat truck would pick up right where the SRT left off.

Find out how much the first wrecked one costs and there's your answer.

I'll take my hellcat in Challenger form due to my hatred of four door cars but I like the fact that they are sticking this in the Charger. Which in my opinion is the best looking four door car available currently and is now likely to be the fastest. Here's to them sticking it in everything they can.

This is at least 10x cooler in a car that actually has an interior to match its exterior and weight. I am also surprised to find myself in no way lamenting the lack of a manual transmission in this particular car...Not that I would personally choose to buy one either way.

Love the new nose, sleek, functional, and oddly more subdued.
