I wish they'd reabsorb the "Ram Trucks" and do away with the "separate Fiat dealerships", while they're reorganizing.ckrock946 wrote:So pumped or what FCA has planned for the next five years, looks really exciting, mostly because theres gonna be an AWD SRT Dart, and they are reabsorbing SRT as part of the brand now but Ralph Gilles still has his job.

yeah the seperate ram thing surprised me, seemed more logical to reabsorb that than SRT, are they gonna grandfather out seperate fiat dealers, seems like a logical thing. But a Journey SRT sounds pretty awesome, and the new challenger hellcat is gonna be superchargedtheColonel wrote:I wish they'd reabsorb the "Ram Trucks" and do away with the "separate Fiat dealerships", while they're reorganizing.

"The newly minted Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will establish its headquarters in London, England, the company's chief executive has confirmed.
Fiat is currently based in Turin, Italy, and Chrysler calls the Detroit suburb of Auburn Hills home, but the merged automaker will form a new HQ in London.
"Headquarters will be in London," FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne told Reuters. "It's clear that group executive functions, the board, my office, some of my functions, need to operate out of London, but that doesn't mean that I'm giving up my operational responsibilities of the U.S. We will be multi-faceted ... we will do stuff everywhere."
Workers in Italy and the United States have voiced concerned over potential job losses that could result from the move, but Marchionne insists that no cuts are planned.
The news of the new London HQ comes just days after FCA announced an aggressive new five-year business plan."

More of a forum friendly post on the Hellcat:
Dodge Challenger SRT With Hellcat Hemi Will Make 600+ Horsepower
The upcoming Challenger SRT with the Hellcat Hemi will make nineteen hundred horsepower, official reports confirm. No wait, that's not right. Fourteen thousand horsepower. No, wait. 600+ horsepower. Close enough.
The supercharged 6.2 liter V8 has been hotly anticipated for a number of months now. It's the most powerful V8 Chrysler has ever made, they claim. I'm sure there are some muscle car nuts out there who can debunk what that means versus the classic drag-spec Hemis of the 1960s.
I will say, the new Hellcat logo looks righteous.
Expand
Running this thing to redline must feel insane.
Expand
Amazingly, Chrysler will be offering this engine not just with their newly-supplied eight speed, but with a six speed manual. God bless them. Honestly, driving that much horsepower with a third pedal is something everyone should do.
Expand
If you're wondering what that much horsepower feels like in a two-door pony car package, just ask Ford.
Expand
Take a look at that motor. Man, that's a lot of motor.
Expand
It does fill me with warm fuzzies to see a company selling such a massive supercharged motor.
Expand
The Chally face looks wonderful, too.

Awesome car! although they are so damn big they are kinda nimble. I rented a base model challenger and its stupid big. I couldn't get over the heft of the car for two days but taking the car on corners and all around tooling around was a pleasent experience. The parking was the only difficult thing. The sound of the helcat engine would have me sold. Although the new Chevy SS does all the same for me with the fact that its more useful.

Cool video of the SRT Hellcat.
Ran a 10.8 @ 126 mph in the 1/4 mile. That is moving for a 4k lb boat! Sure looks sexy though!

They are trying to pay homage to the '71 challenger both with the grille and tails on the new models, picking up where the previous model looked like a '70. It worked out well.NickKo wrote: Those tailights..... Are *VERY* '60's-70's MoPAR to me.

Dont forget, when they'll be released, they'll be in small quantities, so the dealers that do get one will tack on another $5000 stating "Adjusted market value" just like the crap they pulled with the Charger Daytona, Rumble Bee Ram, Charger Super Bee. IMO: no deal...theColonel wrote:2015 Dodge Challenger Hellcat to start at $60,990
