That 6.2 Vette unit has a blower on. How much power do you think Dodge can rumble out of this thing with a blower on?

You seem to be measuring the quality of an engine on its BHP/ltr ratio. A rather limited view of things.
Easy 750bhp with forced induction without it breaking a sweat and enough torque to slow down the earths rotation! you getting tempted wink

Please stop slagging it off - they'll never ever put the steering wheel on the correct side

we just dont need useless st yank cars like this.
well I would say better 2 liter Pepsi than 1.6 liter Honda in your case...no offense there but might be a good idea to drive a yank with ridiculous, big, heavy and prehistoric engine at least once in your life and then give your precious opinion

Think I agree with the general thoughts here that 'Teaser' pics are car manufacturers ad department crap. I therefore command PH to ring up their contacts in such places and inform them of this fact, and tell them all future Teaser rubbish will be put on the (PH) iggy list.
and to all the other people who post similar things:

Dont like teasers?

Dont read blogs or news on the internet. Go back to monthly magazines, where a big reveal can get you a cover shot or at least a big feature. On a title which is on magazine stands for a month.

But if you DO like up-to-the-minute news on the internet, then get used to teasers. One drives the other, because if manufacturers know that if they save it all up for a big reveal, they will be bumped off the "front page" by a smaller story within 24hrs.

So to make sure a decent number of people know about the launch, they have to string it out over several weeks with teasers.

So its actually PHs fault we have teasers hehe

If you know that, why bother mentioning it? Besides, there is no such thing as the "correct side" It's all down to the driver's ability
