I'll admit, the hood is pretty badass.

They also have a 570X which has a 6.0L with 700 hp and 650 lb-ft.

I like it. Not sure about the 65K, but that's probably in line with the other "tuner" cars/shops?

The hood looks cool....too bad it's not functional...at all...and if you're gonna make a '570 Challenger' it should look like this: 570c.i. Challenger
For the price....no thanks...
