I was driving down the road and saw this driving by me. When I saw the sticker on it I had to do a double take. I assumed it was some dealer add on or the owner got some aftermarket stickers, nope. I didn't think Dodge would do this so I had to come home and check, Dodge is making almost 4,000 of these. At least the GTO is a car. I wonder if this was done to prepare us for a new "Super Bee" on the new Charger.

That's not bad looking. Here's another shot:


And it does have 345 HP 5.7-liter Hemi in it, so it'll go.

This and the new Charger are not bad things. As long as manufacturers are moving back toward performance, if they make a few stumbles along the way, so what. They're finally moving in the right direction.

They also have a Hemi GTX package for the Ram to go with the Rumble Bee.

Compared to the new charger, at least the rumble bee truck it is cool.

Here is a picture of the real deal:

I see you live in Virginia Beach. That green bee was sold new in Richmond and spent all its life in VA until I shipped it to Sweden in dec 2002.
