and they claim it as 415hp 6.2 right?

Yessir

Packing 415 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque—as well as a 3.27:1 final drive—Chevy says the car should sprint to 60 mph in the five-second range.

seems about right.

 

[Yaj Yak]

gah. I just don't know. I really want to love this thing, but I really don't. To me, it is still just meh.

what does a hemi powered charger or 300c put down stock?

 

[Yaj Yak]

Yessir

I mean, this quote you had right here, where it says 0-60 in 5 second range, that's what the 5.7 375hp hemi 300c/chargers do it in... and imo in a better package.

I like the styling of the new 300c's and chargers a lot more than this, and aren't the hemi mopars cheaper?

 

[BS ISF]

The SS is in the price range of the SRT8's. they are putting down around 410-420rwhp and 400-410 rwtq.

I mean that right there, I'm getting a fully optioned 300c (non-srt8) for less money than the SS and going away smiling.

I'm coming around on the SS. Spent more time last week around the car at the auto show. It's hard to gauge production version interior quality from an auto show car, but I think the SS' interior has higher quality pieces than the SRT twins and the 2014 Vette. Too bad the Gen V engine didn't make it into the car.

it's like GM can never just make something that is fucking awesome from the get go... drops the ball on the powertrain aspect... finishes strong as fuck on interior packaging.

And then prices it extremely high lol.





I'm with everyone else, for this kind of money I'd get an SRT-8, or save 15K and get a fully optioned charger or 300.

 

[Yaj Yak]

It's like GM is still relying on brand loyalty to somewhat sell their cars, where imo, people nowadays are more unloyal (is this even a word...?!) to car manufacturers than ever before.

 

[EmersonHart13]

This thing needs an ls7 or similar power to be worth damn near 50k.

 

[Yaj Yak]

if i were buying something like this... i'd be buying this long before the SS.

Thats not even a Varvatos(sp?) 300 At least from my understanding of the varvatos features.

Black head and tail lights, stiching in the seats...

Actually after checking I guess you can get the car with the black options or not. Which is stupid as hell. I assumed all the varvatos were like the one like posted above, rather than the first link you posted. I want the head and tail lights but they would set me back 1k+. Not really worth it IMO.

Back on topic..

Like the SS but not for that price.

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

It looks good but other than that its nothing special imo

Yeah, there are two levels of the JV edition. One lower trim, and then the higher one that looks like this:
