It's gorgeous....but it's still a big heavy pig. Give me a balanced 2500lb RWD with a high reving aluminum V8, 6 speed, huge brakes and 4wheel independent suspension.
Looks like I may need to build the Fox-Z afterall.

The new Hemi is more powerful than the old one. (Both rated at 425hp, but different methods of measurement). The vintage Challenger was 3200lbs (lighter than most modern Mustangs) while the new one is likely over 4000lbs (again, lighter than the mighty GT500).

they tested the 409 from the vette and it only made 406 fwhp
the 427 sideoiler let out 665fwhp 852ftlbs

FYI, Some of the Highest Priced Vintage Muscle Cars These Days Are Mopars! The Die Hard Mopar Guys Will Be Tripping over themselves to get them. Plus Lots o Dealers will Keep them for Themselves! I predict Gt-500 ADM's +++

I wonder if it was beause most MOPARs were rust buckets! I mean some of those car were rusting out in 3 to 5 years.
