Cool Re: Chrysler Firepower

[QUOTE=MI Roadster] He says it's a lot bigger than the XF, it's bigger than a Vette. I guess it would have to be if it has a 6.1 L V-8 Hemi in it. /QUOTE]


I just picked up latest issue of Car and Driver and they have feature articles on both the FirePower and the new Z06 Corvette.

The Vette has the new 7.0 litre motor (500h.p.) 1/4 mile approx. 11.7 secs. 127mph
Top Speed likely above 190mph.

The FirePower 6.1 litre Hemi is 425h.p. 1/4 mile approx. 12.8 secs. 112mph
Top Speed not rated The FirePower is about 250lbs heavier at 3400lbs.
