The only down side IMO about the LSX cars, is that everyone has one, same as the mustang. The cost of the challenger will be determined by the number you see on the roads. I really don't want to have a car that everyone else has. This is why I think it is worth the extra money. With that being said, that's why there's alot more aftermarket parts for both ford and chevy. If mopar's aftermarket was as big as per say the LSX motors, then you would have 5.7l's making 500-600hp without Forched Induction.

I'm very understanding what LS motors can do. My brother has an LS1 that makes 550 engine hp, and is still able to get 25 or so mph on the highway. It will smoke my challenger, just don't let him read this, cause I will never admit it to him. Hopefully once the 6 speeds come out, we will be able to see about the same as well.
