Default Traded RCF for Hellcat Challenger

Sorry all but had to do it. I found a Challenger Hellcat with only 600 miles on it dealer was asking below MSRP and they gave me a fair price for the RCF. The two cars are two totally different animals each unique to it's own, both cars are amazing wish I had the $ to have both.

Congrats! Hellcat sure are a lot of horsepower for the money, but just not really my taste. I do know they usually go for MSRP or more, so seems like you got a good deal!

Challenger > Charger to me in terms of looks. Good choice there!

Lol, i think it runs in the Dodge Family, my Viper is by far the Scariest Car i've ever owned as far as getting away from you. It will get loose with you in a Heartbeat, whether it's at 20 mph or 80 mph (you should NEVER even THINK about getting on it while turning). I don't think it's the HP as much as it is the Torque, but both makes for a very scary ride.

Congrats! I'm very interested to hear your thoughts regarding the Challenger's fit, finish and quality (inside amd out) when compared to the RC F. I know that it has a lot of power, but how would you rate the fun-factor of the Challenger given that its such a big car? I'm cross-shopping the RC F with the Challenger SRT 392.

Congrats, sounds like you got a good deal. I have considered one myself several times but haven't pulled the trigger.. Enjoy.
