again like i said before,the younger crowd thats coming up,all they see is numbers.whoever has the most they jump on.i understand power to weight ratio,most of them dont.all you hear about is hellcat,red eye,and demon.they dont even really bring up zl1 and all of that Garbage Motors crap.it does seem like the hellcat charger sells pretty good here in chicago.i stand by FORD needs at least 850HP.Point being is that what bothers me about said statement is that unless the car has more power than any of the other big 2 out of 3, it's not worthy of any attention. Which is complete and utter nonsense. Maybe forget some of the details for a minute and lets think power to weight which is always a universal comparison despite it not being as important as it used to be. If the 500 ends up at 4000lbs curb (which I think is realistic) and at the low end estimate of 770 horsepower, that HANDILY trumps both the ZL1 and the Hellcat Redeye and matches the Demon without having to switch over to race gas. And even so, such figures won't always get people's hearts going. The ZL1 may be the better car out of the Hellcat and itself but I'll take a Hellcat over the ZL1 because I think the ZL1 is a compromise a touch too far and the Hellcat knows exactly what it is. Put a ZL1 1LE in front of my nose though......
