If that was not bad enough, they ran the Hellcat with drag radials while the Hemi ran with the old style bias ply tires.

They're trying to sell new ones by knocking-down old ones. Not cool.

Should I think twice about rolling up on a Cobalt SS? That seems wrong on so many levels.

By the time dealers tack on their $15K-$20K on top of the Kitty's window sticker, you can bet those things will cost ya' $70K. I'll bet you can put together a pretty nice real HEMI powered driver for that kind of money ...

There's a couple of cars that shouldn't be on there and a few that should but otherwise that looks pretty accurate to me. Sort of a pointless exercise, though. Just somebody trying to stir up controversy.

The point I was trying to make was these new vehicles w/traction/launch or whatever name you wish to call the system takes less talent to drive then the old muscle cars -- even a 16 year old can drive like the old SS or MP drivers.
