I wonder if you can delete the emblem? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

----A friend of mine went thru the Dyno facility about a month ago and they were running more than one Demon engine. He actually was there behind the glass when one exploded. Horsies are projected to be around 800!

They will need 800 to stay with the ZL1... Normal Hellcat was scary enough to drive with 707 on tap.

The emblem looks a little too satanic to me- not exactly what I would want on the fender of a car that I was going to drive to the edge of control that is for sure.

Good thing they don't rate the HP as 666 ...

Re: Demon returns
 

The reason that Dodge dropped the original Demon name plate after only two years was for the same reason that is coming up now: potential concern from the devout religious customers. Though the original decal was a little more humorous in an effort to capture some of the RoadRunner comic book imagery.

Re: Demon returns
 

When I was a kid my family lived between two resort areas on a curve with a row of trees. Every summer there were a number of fatal crashes. Two stand out distinctly.

The first was a Dodge Demon that hit two trees so hard that it broke at the subframe and twisted at the frame rails like a candy wrapper. Driver was hanging out the rear window dead. They were running from the OHP at the time of the crash.

The other was a customized HD with an artistically painted Demon on the gas tank and the words &quot;till death do us part&quot; also painted. The bike also crashed the guys boots hit our front door rider ended up in the ditch and the gas tank landed by our Front patio killing the lawn as it tumbled. I watched that man die that night as my father tried in vain to stop the blood loss.

Not a fan for obvious reasons.

Car will feature Street Legal Nitto Drag Radials with Demon logo on its sidewall. The wheels all featuring a devil inspired pointed tail embossed into each rim.

That's cool as hell. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]

Re: Demon returns
 

Bringing back the Demon nameplate is cool and all but tying it to the challenger is kinda lame..

Re: Demon returns
 

These Challengers are getting pretty dated IMO.
They were by far and away the best example of the old glory days in styling. But now I think the new mustangs are a home run. The new Camaros look a little better as of recent but overall I never give them a second look. Wish Chevy could do something better in the styling department.
New cars are getting FASTER and faster but they are still just an appliance with NO Soul like the old Musclecars.

We need a &quot;Like&quot; button for posts like this.

I could not agree more.
There is not a single new &quot;performance car&quot; that interests me.

I'll jump in too. New cars are great but do little for me. My last new purchase was in 1999. Been shopping, just not interested. There is an impressive variety of late model performance cars out there, new and used, for those who want one.
