New Dodge Demon

[CudaMoparRay]

Wonder how much more money to make it run in the 9's?

Cam, heads, pistons, rods, intake mod, suspension, a good tune on the PCM, headers, tires = $20k?

Too much I see! Probably relatively cheaper to just buy the Demon LOL LOL

Don't forget: SFI balancer and plate, axels ( if don't already have).  And other required safety equip: certified cage, drive shaft loops, engine diaper, etc.

That's if the track inspects. I've see unsafe shit pass through.

Yeah it would be a small pain to get it track certified and then it's also heavier so that is a little bummer.

Just saw a brand new Dodge Demon commercial on T.V. tonite.

Fresh material wasn't even on Youtube.

As if they need to advertise!!

They know it will be only afforded to a few and they are Mopar addicts who will pay the price. The need to advertise is moot.

Since the Viper is gone, the Demon is now Dodge's "Halo" car.  By advertising the Demon, they are advertising the entire brand.

You are correct and I am one of those addicts. I have been following the Demon for 6 months before anyone knew it existed. They don't need advertising because if you know you know.

I'm confused about the demon's claim for fastest production car ever, picked up a car mag today with the demon on the cover, talked about the 9.65 1/4 and being the fastest ever, in the same magazine, the he a article about the Bugatti Chiron, 1500hp AWD 9.4 in the 1/4.  Same magazine as the demon, sand the Bugatti is a 2017 model currently on sale

That's a good question.     I don't know what make a car officially a "Production" car.  We know the Buggatti Chiron is close to $3,000,000 MSPR and they make them custom for every owner.  They'll do pretty much anything you ask them.  How many will they make?  Maybe 2 or 3 hundred?     I would guess the definition of a "Production" car would be something along the lines of a mass produced identical model that is for sale to the general public.     Not sure though.

Production car meaning it was produced on the same assembly line as the rest of the Challengers. Bugatti's are a hand made car and very few are made. Most high end exotics and super cars are not true production cars.

they only made 450 Veyrons. the Chiron sold the first 200 units pre-production.

[HP_Cuda]

Yep off a production line and at a much lower cost to boot!

My (chevy) buddy just tried to hang the Hennessy Exorcist Camaro over me    hennessy CLAIMS sub 10 second 1/4 from the 1,000 HP Camaro, but more importantly, the Hennessy upgrades include engine upgrades, exorcist crate (like the demon crate), lightweight wheels etc, BEFORE the price of the ZL1 you have to buy, adds up to 80k!! Hennessy's version of the Demon Crate, but it costs like 8-9k! Haha sorry chevy boy, back of the line with ur $145k tuner car

I had a friend tried that on me too 'there is a new Camaro with much higher HP coming out' ..... not by the factory there isn't. a 3rd party race car does not make it a Factory built race car and even with more power, it still is just a shadow of what the Demon is. anyone can slap together a strong engine these days and easily make 1000+HP, but it still would only be a wanna-be of what the Demon is.
