1025 hp on pump gas. 

0-60mph in 1.66 seconds

Quarter mile in 8.91

Comes on drag radials from factory.

I love that Stellantis does this wacky stuff, and has been doing crazy fun vehicles for decades now, while the others get all serious.

 

Speaking of wacky...

$131k CDN to start. Was speaking today with a friend who owns a big Chrysler store here. They're getting a handful of these cars, probably 5. He's taking the first one, of course. But the others are currently getting bids, and they have three people - legit, verified, repeat clients -  right now willing to drop over $200k CDN just to get one.

Since this is the last year for the Camaro I wonder if Chevy will follow suit and put out a smoking hot Camaro ?

Google the Camaro Exorcist.

It is a few years old, but Hennessey made a 1000hp Camaro. It is ridiculously dangerous because they got 1000hp out of it, but did nothing with the suspension, tires, or brakes.

This is simply insane. 1025 hp on regular fuel? Stellantis really isn't afraid to go beyond the limits.

The price is a bit steep, but this rocket is worth it. 8.9 seconds in the quarter mile - this is not just a muscle car, it's almost a dragster from the salon
