The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

This car is out, saw it on the news today. The Dodge Demon is the first production car to pull the front wheels off the ground stock. Incredible 840 horse power. What happened to crappy hybrid and electric cars This is a Porsche eater

If this Dodge has a good price a lot of regular Joe's are going to trade in the family Volvo... not me but I can wish.

Oooh. Want.

Trouble is it'll be expensive over here. £40k plus for a V8 mustang on this side of the pond.

Gonna be expensive and love to see how the 30 minute warranty reads.. Street legal ?? No way with the exhaust and slicks alone.. Wonder how it would do against a done up VIPER.

And it comes with a theftproof device mounted on the front, a Dodge badge

Here in Oz, anything with a Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep badge has a reputation of breaking down as they leave the dealer's driveway. You need a particularly thick hide to buy a Jeep here. Their dealerships are well known for their "deny everything" attitude.

I've not had any lingering problems with mine, but still I'm not buying one ever again...

1.8G @ launch
Zero to 30 in one second
Wheels up in first and second gear
140 mph in 9.6 seconds

I did all this on the Stevenson the other day... with only 100 hp
Buy a Buell it's a lot cheaper

As much as the testosterone loves a car like this, my guess is that it will be a niché market car that will not last.

Could never quite figure out why anyone would want something like this. I had friends that had the original Roadrunners Super Bees and Dusters-overpowered tin crates.
For me now a class 8, 15 litre diesel truck- now your talking muscle.
2000 lbs torque 600 hp, if you want to grunt, anything else just a flash in the pan.

That would be me. Enjoy your flourescent rim tape bollox. If a muscle car comes back and I can afford it I'm having it.

When I was still in High School back in the '70s one of the rich kids in my grade had a Dodge Charger 440 with a "Six Pack". He put those things on the car that shifted the weight to the rear wheels when things got intense and the pedal was to the metal. They lightened up the front end . . . hence the "wheelies". I got a ride in it once. Rode like a daily driver until you said "game on".

If I ever hit the "big lotto" a new Dodge Challenger would be on my wish list along with new digs and a few other things. . .Wide Glide, Porsche 911 Turbo (there is no substitute. . "Who's the U-Boat Captain"), and a Bentley.

Just put some water sealer or caulk along where the windshield meets the metal and you'll be fine. Don't forget to lube the linkage for the 4WD lever.
