and if you think that DCX is going to offer a vehicle with viper-like horsepower for half the viper price, you need to have a reality check.

unlike many people who will run off to read these nonsensical articles about how the challenger is going to have a 6.4 or 7.1 liter engine. and believe that crap, i have experience in the automotive industry, and i dont buy into useless rumors.

the 392 crate motor boasts 500ish hp, depending on what type of aspiration you chose. the viper has 505hp and costs 85,000 USD. the challenger is supposed to costs 30-50 grand, and if you honestly think that dodge is going to offer a car with 5 less horsepower for 35-55 grand less, youre insane. putting the 505hp 392 in any car, based on similarly powered vehicles and dodges current pricing setup, charging 35-43 grand for a 425hp car, and 85 grand for a 505hp car, the price of the challenger with the 392 would be ridiculous...youre being hopeful, im being realistic.

ive still found NOTHING to back up this article from autoblog. nothing about this on firehouse or DCXM.
