2014 Mid Year "Supercharged" Hemi Challenger release from MOPAR?

[super-bee_ski]

I just read in my newest "Muscle Machines" magazine that Chrysler is introducing the "Supercharged" Hemi in the Challenger.

Release date: Mid 2014

Anybody else see or read this monumnntal news?

Rumored to be around 665HP

A direct attack on the GT500.

Yep, read that this weekend. I've no more garage space. :angryfire:

We could always build a bigger garage? :icon_sunny:

Don't tell RC

Don't tell RC

Yeah, RC just might want to "supercharge" that 5.0 Coyote!

But hey, my 2007 GT500 w/ 196 miles on her just sits in the garage...

I sold the GT500 on the left, kept the one on the right.

Me at the dealer looking at the BOSS 302 when it came out.

BUT HEY! THIS IS A MOPAR FORUM DAG-NABBIT!

Looks like we might catch up with the competition... Finally.

Funny thing;
Last November at Pomona I spoke with a Chrysler CEO and we were discussing the FORD Cobra Jet and its competition.
He told me that because the Challenger was NOT supercharged, it could NOT run against the Cobra Jets.
He made NO mention of the MID 2014 Supercharged Challenger, none at all.

In an article I saw the other day, it mentioned the Chally was probably going to cost more than the GT500 or ZL1. And of course, it will still weigh significantly more. So, we're not there quite yet.

that 665 hp number is going to be a very conservative number :toothy12:

it's going to be like a 2g hemi putting out 425
