I doubt about the new challenger beeing aroung 500hp. I'd say the srt8 challenger will be 425 and the rt 345(maybe the numbers will be a bit higher till 2009 but not as high as 500). 500hp marks would be too expensive to make good sell numbers. Don't forget the viper is 510hp and it doesnt sell cheap(its a V10 too)...I guess we'll see.

We chatted a little nice guy, he said it has 500 hp stock, is that true? Anyone run into one of these? Thanks for listening

PS - my car is a stock 6 speed ws6
Nice death!!

As usual? What the **** is wrong with you? I was off by 5hp (got the Jeep mixed up with the 300C/Magnum/Charger), and I said what I see them run at the track. Not everyone is going to run low 13s everytime they go to the track. And I never said I had "superior" knowledge buddy... just that I knew a little about a lot

Rumor is that the RT would be equipped with actual 6.1 HEMI and the SRT would have a bigger variant of the 6.1...so it could really be near 500HP. These are the rumors lurking around the SRT forums. Some of these come from people on "the inside"...LOL!! It should be very interesting...

Yes as usual...lets see...off by 5HP, mixed up the Jeep and the LX lineup (very similar, right?), what YOU see in the track is automatically a worldwide known fact...and you are always bragging about how much car "knowledge" you have! So yes..as usual, you are full of semisolid human disposal matter. (AKA ****)

Excuse me for mixing up the hp numbers... I mean, it's not like they have the same engine or anything, so that makes it unforgiveable right? And it's not like atleast one other person in this thread made the same mixup. And as far as "always bragging," I said in ONE thread that I have a "good general automotive knowledge," or something like that. So yeah, I guess that makes me full of **** .

That would be great!! I still doubt it, like I doubt the new Camaro will get the LS7...They wont make a camaro that will be faster than the c6 corvette.
If they want to sell as much unit as the latest model of mustang, GM and DODGE must keep their muscle car CHEAP!!!

That is where they (GM, Dodge) will crap on us....the cheap part. I bet the V6 version will be more or less priced as the V8 Mustang....
