David Hawkins Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Could it be the "Tim Allen Edition" GT 500KRrrrrrrr ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bookwyrm Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Yeah, Dodge managed 707hp at the crank, but it also cost them 500lbs more than the 2013/4 GT500 weighs (based on the specs they've released so far). For only 55 more hp (that we could get with a simple pulley/TB/CAI change on a GT500) that's a heck of a lot of weight to give up. I'm curious to see how it performs in real world numbers and feel.

Very interesting. Especially the differences in exhaust notes of the 2 cars that are obviously performance models. One sounds like the '13-'14 GT500 engine and the other like a hot 4 or 6 cylinder.

Captain Beyond Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 It's only a matter of time when Ford re-claims the HP crown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Johnston Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Why doesn't Ford SVT just make a signature arrangement with the SA shop to release the Shelby 1000 as a production model (wide body kit optional) and be done with it!

Bushmaster Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 It's only a matter of time when Ford re-claims the HP crown. I'm not even sure they have to. As long as they build a fast - very fast - and nimble car that doesn't feel like piloting a tank, they'll always get my vote over the Challenger. I have some admiration for what Dodge is doing and I've always admired the sack it's taken to build stuff like the Viper and Prowler, and I love the looks of the Challenger, it's just the wrong platform for me. Well, aside from not being a Ford, that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
