Cold weather too.
Anyone put good tires on one and seen what its like?
The P Zeros arenāt the pinnacle of gripā¦even my 5 series can make them slip.
The slipping is the fun!
Summers donāt help much, need drag radials of better. In the rain and such, I used to run it in the ~500 hp reduced power mode. Helped some. Awesome car though, awesome at hauling ass as well as hauling the family.
Agreed. When you discussing traction at that level of potencyā¦drag radials are the best (in terms of grip).
Winter/wet conditionsā¦obviously a dedicated winter tire would do wonders as well, even on a Hellcat.
I donāt know how you floored this sh*t from stop light to stop light ⦠were you on the black key?
This thing tap dances more than Gregory Hines on the red key
How is wireless CarPlay not a thing on an 80k car. My one knock against the car.
Just look on the bright side, the ancient car has CarPlay.
It is amazing how far our āneedsā have evolved. I remember years ago, having an iPod with an FM transmitter (or if you were lucky enough to actually have an aux input). It was mind blowing to be able to choose from hundreds of songs, and within seconds. No searching through a case, ejecting, inserting, etc.
Oh yea I remember those. I also had the 3.5mm input to cassette adapterā¦ā¦ back in the 90s to play music off my portable CD player
On the bright side, the Bose system in Charger is pretty good
Ha, so did I!! I completely forgot until you mentioned it. I actually had one of those well before the transmitter (or eventually get a car with a dedicated aux input).
The cassette adapter was less than $10 iirc lol and worked decently well.
If would be HK Iād you selected the āupgradeā system, otherwise it is Alpine.
I donāt have a Hellcat (yet) but the Alpine system was more than adequate in my ā21 ScatPack WB (basically the same car). I didnāt go with the HK on that build either. In these cars itās not worth spending the extra $2k imo.
Oh youāre right alpine! The bass is pretty good. Bose just pops to mind
So you didnāt upgrade the sound system, with the $2k option?
No. I picked zero options. Just paint lol
And of course, the forced gas guzzler tax
Got it . Yeah, I think the ābaseā alpine system sounds very good. The HK system is simply a money grab. Sure, it likely does sound a bit better but many of those options also used to come standard on the Hellcats. Itās just not worth the $2k. Hell, the sunroof is quite the ripoff too, but I always have to opt for that.
At least weāre not paying $25k or $30k just for a paint option, which is becoming quite common with the higher end cars. Iāll stick with my indigo blue pricing.lol
I realized I never posted some pics that my friend took of the Hellcat, along with his 911, a few months ago
@zaimer teaser pics while you wait
Halogen headlights on 80k car are ok?
Theyāre HIDās arenāt they?
