Local dealer finally got one of the Hellcats they had ordered . It came with two very minor scratches in the front bumper cover. They had us sand and buff them out and I got to drive it up to the dealer to drop him back off and back to the shop. I of course could really beat on it,cause it's not mine,but you could fell the power. Barely tap the t hottie tires spinning. Feels very nimble too. Torque is great too. You don't even have to touch the throttle to take off,let the clutch out and it just starts moving.


Here is a picture of it in the shop.

Out of the hundreds of Hellcats that came threw my work place I've only seen 1 in that bright blue that came in the other day. Almost looks like 1970 B5 blue. The most popular color I see is that bright green. Wonder why that blue so limited? Seen a very dark blue that almost looked like B9. LEON.

I was told that the b5 blue just became available recently.

I noticed I have not seen any Orange or Yellow Hellcats. A Hemi Orange or that Stinger Yellow on the Yellow Jacket Challenger would look nice on a Hellcat. Wonder if they will come out with more color options. LEON.

Yellow and orange aren't available according to the SRT website.

Nice!   I'm sure you took your new 2015 out for a spin with the weather - what are your thoughts?

So did the dealer give you the RED key?  :drive:


They did actually. I dint drive at all hard though. For two reasons. A. it isnt mine. and,b. if i drove it hard i would probably set myself up to be disapointed with my regular r/t Challenger.  :scratchchin:

Took a ride in my buddy's red one with auto. Had 25 miles on it. Set you back into the seat and you stayed there. Impressive! I did see 698 hp on the screen once. He went looking for his and yes there is some scalping going on. Cool car!

Must be this car.....

The car is sold but Apearently when they get shipped they show up in a search . Even though it's sold and simply in transit. Bruce told me he wants it off of his site too. He has people calling trying to get him to sell it out from under his buyer. Even had one guy basically tell him he was a moron for not taking his offer of 10k over sticker. He sold it for sticker to his customer unlike a lot of the scum out there trying to charge 10-20 k extra.

I drove my buddy's Sublime Hellcat last night.  He ordered it back in July last year and finally got it yesterday.


Got to take it for a good 1/2 hour drive on the highway and release the full power of the red key.....blew my mind. Best thing I have driven yet! Makes me want one!

It's posts like this that just add to the reason I have to wait longer to get one.  :D -- :cheers:
