That thing is outrageous.

And if I had the disposable income and garage space, I’d find a way to have one.

I friggin hate it. But I love it more.

Yeah, you'all.... It is a monster demon! Just one seat, LOL. I guess we'll have to stay 'tuned' for its 'smokin' updates ...

When I bought my /// M6 I thought that 575 horsepower with the Competition Package, that goes 0-60 in just under 4.0 Seconds with a governed top speed of 155 Mph was Fast!

This Demon is Serious! No way that this is a daily driver like the /// M6 is...

For that price I'd get a GT-R and crush the Demon around the track.

Apples to oranges comparison. The Demon is meant for the drag strip, nothing more.

Exactly that.

Love the R. But it’s a different kind of animal.

Wonder what the dealer markup will be on those. $50k? I'm guessing nobody will get them for anywhere near MSRP.

This might be one that you drive off the lot and gain 20% profit if you were to sell it right away!

Been reading about this car for awhile. The Auto News guys are wanting to ban it? Hilarious!

How did they come up with the claim that it "is so inherently dangerous."

I'm pretty sure teens with a smartphone in a Civic are a lot more, "inherently dangerous," than the Demon is. And do they have no clue how many modified cars are on the road pushing that much power or more? Yet, do we have an epidemic of high performance cars wrecking and/or causing wrecks?

Somewhere, a lawyer is salivating at the thought of being able to sue Dodge for selling a car that they should have known was a death trap.
