    I've always been a huge mustang fan, and especially the GT500. However I'm not one of those car guys where I hate on anything that isn't a Ford or a mustang. Dodge has done an unbelievable job with the Challenger. Growing up in the 60s would have been unbelievable. To be in the muscle car era growing up would have been a dream come true. That being said I feel that we are equally as lucky living in today's day and age. To have the mustang, challenger, camaro, and Corvettes of today is pretty special. The horsepower that these cars are turning out today is unbelievable. Years down the road there are going to be younger people wishing that they grew up doing this current time. I have a feeling before long we're going to start seeing a reduction in automobiles horsepower and eventually going to Total electric. So in a sense I believe we are living in the last great muscle car era. I'm going to try to sit back and enjoy it for all it's worth.

      Well said, I'm partial to Dodge but would take a Camaro or Mustang in a heartbeat. This is the last hurrah for cars like these, big changes are on the horizon, Camaro is being discontinued, Dodge moving away from V8s, we all know electric is coming. In 3 years Ford might be the only v8 being offered along with a slew of other engine choice. One way or the other beasts like the GT500 and Hellcats days are numbered as sad as it is. Cheers

The man took me for a ride that car was extremely fast. All the car had was a upgraded tune. I don’t know how much power the car was producing but I’ve been in challengers with 1000 hp and that mustang felt like it was past 1000 hp range. that 10 speed transmission is on another level .

    what many peoples dont know, you can convert the Hellcat to AWD and put stiffer Shocks, springs and swaybars on, it will drive circles around every Mustang. The Frame from that Challenger is based on the Mercedes Benz W210 E-Class. That says all.

    I've owned a few Hot-Rods,.......Big block 69 Roadrunner,...big block 70 nova,...70 Corvette with a 396,...none of these cars had the factory engine,........probably 375-500 horsepower. They all had that rumpity-rump cam sound that I love and sounded even better when you nailed it.
    What is with these new so-called muscle cars that have 300-500 horsepower and have that clackity-clack exhaust sound?
    To the car designers/engineers at Dodge,......I don't care how fast it is,........you can't make a Hot-Rod out of a four door.

    As a female, strictly novice in (most, not all) things tech talk, I have always been a FoMoCo fan. I was an avid NASCAR WC fan until my hero, Rusty Wallace retired. I own a 2013 F150 360 and a 2006 Merc Grand Marquis. I will never own a rice wagon Idc how much they are touted for longevity, trade-in value, etc. I was so proud of how this GT500 performed against the Hellcat. In fairness, I love and respect the Dodge brand as well. Even though it pains me to acknowledge that the individual parts mfg of both brands are farmed out to other countries, and that our USA plants are almost limited to final assembly, as opposed to years gone by that the complete manufacturing of the complete vehicle from parts, to the final roll-out of the finished product was all USA. I still feel allegiance to the 'Big Three' as being of the great US of A. Where is Paul Harvey when you need him. God Bless America.

Ford works with Shelby and pays them for using their name, but they are built on the same line as the Mustang GT.
