    Funny Hellcat story

    First Hellcat Sold in Colorado Wrecked An Hour After Purchase

    This is one of those things that's certainly unfortunate, but about as surprising as seeing toes emerge from a sock. The first Challenger Hellcat sold in Colorado has been wrecked, and it appears the accident happened about an hour after the car was bought. Somehow, a new-to-the-driver 707 HP car proved tricky to…

      Definately not how you want to be known. We all knew this was going to happen, didn't we? The HellCat is too affordable by too many people that won't respect that kind of HP. That may not be the case in this instance but I'm guessing it's partially to blame.

      So, there have been comments about the HellCat and it's high HP numbers coming out of the factory and that it shouldn't happen, guessing for this very reason. Has everyone seen that the 2016 CTS-V having 650hp and being a 200mph car? Yep, my family sedan needs to go 200hp! Crazy times!

            I agree with you Fast Freddie. That's unreal factory HP.
            I remember driving my SS home the 1st day I picked it up from the dealer.
            I was nervous just driving the 426 HP I got. Mostly because it was rush hour and other drivers always scare me but I can't imagine over 700 HP from the dealership.

              Best advice that Stefano (NicKey) gave me when I picked up my monster machine from their shop was, "Make sure you're pointed straight when you punch it!"

              He was right on with that advice!
