2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat

[ELVIS]

The rest of the car was built on the cheap to keep the costs down so daddy could buy one for junior to drive to school or take to college.

Yeah, that's good...

I like bare bones cars, like the Road Runner...

[Seshmeister]

Pretty much the only car that Chrysler marketed here in the last decade has been the PT Cruiser.

A guy across the road bought one and whenever I passed him it had that awkwardness of trying to get the right expression on your face when you walk past some poor unfortunate person who had a thalidomide kid. You don't want to look negative and make them feel worse but also anything positive just makes you look false.

The Prowler was even worse. The design staff designed these modern retro cars and management managed to actually put them into production. Most ideas like that fortunately never make it past the concept car stage if they even make it that far.

You must be cum drunk. The Prowler was badass, and still is. It still brings a premium price on the open market. The problem with the Prowler had nothing to do with looks. It was the fucking V6. They should have put a Hemi in it. They should have offered several versions, like they are doing with the Challenger. A Hellcat version of the Prowler would have set Chrysler apart from anyone else at that time. More than the Viper ever could have dreamed of doing.

[Seshmeister]

Wow I've never seen one of those before.

Mad but cool...comparing it to the Cruiser thing I posted it shows that there is a fine line between stupid and clever.

[Seshmeister]

You must me cum drunk.

[ashstralia]

Hehe...

The 300c's sell well here.

[Von Halen]

[Von Halen]

I have no idea what that means.

[Von Halen]

[ashstralia]

Roll Kristy over and wake him up...

[Seshmeister]

I knew he wouldn't get it, he's never seen any of them.

[ELVIS]

The Prowler was even worse.

You must get high on lawn clippings...

[ELVIS]

Next, you non car girls will tell me they were pitifully slow due to their V6 and automatic transmission...

[Seshmeister]

The automatic transmission would slow it down, it won that race because it was lighter.

[Seshmeister]

0-60 in seven seconds is not that fast for an aluminum car at that price.

In the late 90s I had a FIAT that was a lot faster...

I had a '71 Challenger.

[Kristy]

You should have kept that car.

[Von Halen]

You should have kept that car.

Well, when my wife's health started failing, and the economy took a dive, I had to sell it. I'll get another one, or something similar, one of these days.

[Kristy]

Wife or the car: should have went with the car.

[Von Halen]

By the way, that '69 Pontiac in my neighbors garage, is still sitting in that exact spot. The guy makes $200k a year, and still says he's going to restore it some day. He never will. He's had it since he was 16, and he's 60.

[Kristy]

Now that is a car!

Well, I could have. She died.

[Kristy]

So sorry.

One of 58 with the 4-speed. Damn. Love that car.

[ELVIS]

Typical retard...

[Von Halen]

Typical retard...

To whom are you referring, E?

[Kristy]

One of 58 with the 4-speed. Damn. Love that car.

Didn't he say Dodge built only 71 of those monsters? Either way, it beats Trollvis and his tricycle.

71 total. 58 with the 4 speed.

I'd be interested to know how many with the Shaker hood. I have the books around here somewhere that tell all that shit. The Galen Govier books.

Next, you non car girls will tell me they were pitifully slow due to their V6 and automatic transmission...

That's not a stock Prowler.. in stock trim it's a 14 second car in the 1/4. Maybe the Vette driver fell asleep.

We should rename this the mid life crisis thread...

I'm not at mid life...

[VAiN]

I'm not at mid life...

How long do you plan on staying on the planet? To me mid-life is about 40 if you're lucky.

[PETE'S BROTHER]

elvis is predestined by his immortal lord and savior to live to 118 years old...

[ELVIS]

How long do you plan on staying on the planet?

As long as God allows it...

Hopefully 120 years...

To me mid-life is about 40 if you're lucky.

Nah, no such thing as luck...

[ELVIS]

elvis is predestined by his immortal lord and savior to live to 118 years old...

I can live with that...

[VAiN]

120 would be agreeable... my perception of time has changed a little since I crossed the 40 line...

yeah but... after your 80s those last forty years are not bombdiggity

[VAiN]

yeah but... after your 80s those last forty years are not bombdiggity

I don't know about that.. You can say whatever you want, you don't wipe your own ass anymore and, if you're lucky and lose your mind, you get to meet new people everyday.
