Impressive engine, I hope the Charger gets it too.

This HP race is going crazy, it wasn't long ago that the Viper had only 400HP and 450HP

05 300C SRT-8 vs. 05 Mustang GT
1. both coming to a dealer near you soon
2. both competitors in the muscle car showdown for '05
3. both have decent HP ratings.

Both American V8 RWD.
Both making German and Japanese cars look underpowered and overpriced.
Both making GM go back to the drawing board.

They both have retro styling, but the Mustang looks awesome while the 300C could use some work.

The 300C SRT-8 probably costs half again or more than the 05 Mustang GT.

But it's based on the same platform used to build the T-Bird, Lincoln LS, and Jag S-Type

I just can't wait for the EPA and the gov't. to jump back on all the auto-makers asses about all the high-HP cars and trucks, we're gonna drop back to like 200 HP GT's just like the early 80's.

EPA... That's probably why? They don't talk to much about the new Cobra or Shelby... I hope not!
