Charger vs Darkhorse vs Redeye

[EricG]

I love it when people think my redeye is as slow as these videos show

I'm waiting for the 2027/28 Charger Hellcat, preferably widebody and I'll make a decision to get one then. I do miss my yellow Hellcat I must say.

I really was not a fan of the new LB body style, but when I seen the attached picture, I must say I was feeling it, can't believe I just said that.

If it looks anything like this I may be back into one soon, that 2 door option is sweet AF and AWD.

Let's see what SRT does with this, anxiously awaiting.

I, too, await the 2027 Hellcat Charger. I think it's awesome looking with the looks in my opinion of the Challenger front end and the Charger rear end! I ran across this and could not find any information on the HP for the rumored 2027 Charger.

It might be a bigger disaster than the EV Charger. Honda used to be known as an engine company and they have played it too safe for decades now.

The Prelude had a lot of potential for the younger enthusiasts. Instead they gave it a weak engine, terrible transmission and a heavy hybrid system.

They should have kept it simple and focused on light weight. No CVT, no heavy, expensive hybrid system. Dodge has a 324 hp turbo 4 so there’s no reason Honda can only come up with a combined powertrain of 200 hp.

During initial testing in Japan, it was so slow in 0-60 testing that the company introduced a new launch control system to help it get out of the 9-second range. Absolutely pathetic in 2026, especially for a sporty coupe aimed at attracting the younger performance enthusiast.

Honda knows how to make a performance car. The Civic Type R is a heck of a car. Too expensive, though.
