now that is a high performance car in the same price range as the rest sort-of. This would be my midlife crisis toy if I could afford it. highetter performance awd car with seating for 4
I admire the GTR for what it is and how fast it is, but for my money, it would have to look a lot better than it does, and be more refined as far as road noise and suspension harshness.

The 600hp gtr is the nismo edition which is 150k. Hellcat is 60k. Not quite the same price range.

And look better too. And as much of a fat pig as it is, it's a lot lighter than a Hellcat.

And the 'regular' version is still 545 hp so 2.35hp/ci...'only' 463lb-ft of tq though so only 2.00lb-ft/ci (keeping the units in the spirit of the OP)

Hellcat to *****cat in less than one hour. This dumbass smashed his brand new Challenger Hellcat into a tree less than one hour after he drove it off the lot. 707 hp in the wrong hands = FAIL!

They aren't much of a road car. All they can really do is go fast in a straight line. Not really my idea of a performance car.

Old muscle cars weren't pushing that much power. I have been thinking that a lot of these will end up as twisted metal... seems that unfortunate example is one of the first.

True but they were only good for driving in straight lines.
