I wanna wait and see what the final price is, before theorizing how the 2015 sales will fare. In the US there's an ongoing horsepower war going on, with efforts to make 600+ more "affordable" than ever. The insane Dodge Hellcat is going for $60000 IIRC, which seems to be a "throwing down the gauntlet" kind of marketing scheme against the Stingray.

Sure... the NISMO will certainly be cheaper than $60K... but how much? Some people in the US might just save and/or loan for the extra money to upgrade for an American muscle on steroids.

I don't think I saw it mentioned here, but if it was, my bad.

The car is now listed on Nissan's FUTURE & CONCEPT VEHICLES section.

Nothing we haven't seen or already knew is on it though...

I don't care how much HP they throw at a Challenger, it will never be a C7. Hell, if I had Corvette money, I wouldn't cross shop a Challenger. Apples and oranges.

From what I have heard the new challenger is having a hard time hooking the tires and is so heavy it has a hard time pulling up top too. I have not looked into it myself, but this is what is going around the drag strip. I actually like the looks of the car. Looks closer to the original resto's they are doing lately
