Looks like the rumors were true about some of the Demon parts and design features making to the new Hellcat.  They are calling it the "Redeye" because it's the Hellcat possessed by the Demon.

They must have heard about the run against the 67 Coronet & decided to up the power LOL  :burnout:

I like everything but the hood. Looks too close to the 2000's Pontiac Trans Am. The late model T/A hood was/is my favourite hood with the AAR style second. Cool car though!

Ah just pretend it's a modern interpretation of a Cuda hood. I agree though t does look like a formula Firebird hood, I always liked them too though.

Nice, the more engines they keep cranking out like this the possibility of me owning one some day increases!

Funny how they couldn't eek out 3more horsepower to round it up to 800. I bet someone in marketing, or even engineering, was cracking to whip to get that done. :burnout:

makes sense to have the functional hood scoop but it would look really bad on only 1 side

The 707 and 797 hp numbers may be on purpose as a marketing ploy to stand out vs just a rounded number.   :thinking:

I read that there is extra body moulding options you can buy too. it took 2 sec off the lap time.  it was 3 inches wider I think
