Careful. That man knows more about cars than anyone I know.



Well, that and it won't be too long (I hope) before this has a new, specific, different meaning for us.

To walk among cars on display with @EricG is like walking with a fact filled IPad on demand. Knowing how much he loves cars and his ability to drive on the strip, made my eyes hurt to read that.

Modifying your car...

Personalize it to "make it your own"

Or make it go faster, well because faster is better... even if you're not racing somebody else.

I do have this internal struggle with "keeping it original" though
Personalize hmmm... 🤔 what’s that bull? 😉 59EC6DC1-B199-4E8B-B1A0-748286F87AE5.jpeg 0F147FD4-AA14-49B1-850F-4C512B76870A.jpeg 212BE550-C735-4B16-A06F-E0D2E186D6F5.jpeg

There is no way I'm going to do any kind of delete or add any kind of performance gimmick to my car, we paid enough money for our vehicle that some people pay for their house and most people only pay half of that for their house. I learned early with my terminator that the money & time in my modifications is not worth how the car ends up. I would've got more money when I sold it if I just left the car stock. I see a lot of threads, guys are modifying their (new) Hellcats and it just blows my mind but hey, it's your car, I already learned from history. The only mods that I have done are ceramic brakes and a oilcan. My car runs fine with 717 hp.
You are joking right?

one thing I will add to this thread.. if you don’t have your car paid off and your doing an expensive build that to me is stupid. Definitely my own priority is getting my cars paid off first.
My '13 Mustang I bought new had a blower on it less then a year later. Had lots of stuff done to it and when I paid it off I sold it go figure. I'm not waiting for a car to be paid off or the warranty up before I modifying it. Hell my leased Daytona was modified:p

No seriously I'm not joking. Like I said I learned with my terminator but I understand the human behavior of wanting to better what you have, not everybody that buys a high-performance car will go and mod it and I know there's a lot of people that feel the same way but doesn't want to admit it because they don't want to seem lame to their peers but I just don't give a damn what people think about me. There's nothing like wisdom.

A house that costs half of a Hellcat? Haha. Jeez 😂
yeah it's a shame some people never see what's really going on, yes people live in houses that cost a .10th of what a hellcat cost.

It’s funny.. I have like spidey senses when it comes to cat piss 😂! And cats in general.. I’m a bit allergic to them.. mostly skin.. but like if I walk into a home I can sense if you have a cat in like 60 seconds without seeing it. I love cats though.. my allergy I wasn’t even aware of until I was in my 20s coming home from my buddies house itching the shit out of my skin needing to take a cold shower.. I was like wtf is going on.. 😺
if you walk into anyone's house that has cats, there's cat piss everywhere, believe it. Cats spray constantly, they may use the litter box to piss or shit but when it comes to spraying it's on your curtains, walls everything.

I've been watching videos on YouTube, I totally get it now. Mod your ass off (y)(y)

BTW, what does it cost to install a Kenne Bell 4.7 supercharger on a Hellcat? Has anyone done this?

2017 Charger HC (once upon a time)
#57
I've only ever bought two cars brand new. The SC GTO and this HC. It's all about the value proposition for me on each respective deal and the "drop 10K when you leave the lot" is something I don't think about well. Like some of the other guys on here, within a few months of being bought that GTO had a SC and a whole host of other things added. And very little was to personalize; nearly every single thing was go fast related. But then, conversely, the HC has had virtually nothing done to it predominantly because I don't have the time and their are NO shops out here with the tuning experience I would want.
