So they can put an ICE engine in a new POS Maserati but they can’t come up with one for the Dodge cars🤔🤔

I fear that Dodge is going Bye-Bye sooner than later.

They hate Americans. Probably because of WW2 and will never get over how their sorry asses were saved by a bunch of classless colonist malcontent revolutionists who have too much fuel (and everything else) and consume too much fuel (and everything else). Now that the U.S. had gone green, they can enact their revenge!

You all are going to ban me. But that car is pretty good looking, and the one ICE unit, could be fun if we could mod it for more power.

I'll go hide now.[popcorn]

I don’t disagree in the looks and ICE department. I’m fine with it; as long as they don’t call it muscle :). Honestly, I’d take that over a C8 (personally just from the looks dept. alone).
I certainly wouldn’t kick it to the curb if offered.

What is the cost? 4 seater w the performance of the corvette zo6, if they're comparable in cost is pretty good engineering, I don't care who you are. And ww2 I don't think plays any role in this. Having been in major corporation you see them others, not their nations, as the enemy. If you can spike them.it is a visceral, secret pleasure. But this was a long time coming, they didn't just.do those things over night.

I still think dodge should have been allowed to do a hybrid on the current charger platform and offer the full EV version as well. I'd have scraped and saved for it. The current non finalized oferring... really not a grabber for me. Price vs performance for me will be the key.

I agree, the car in the pic above is very good looking.

I’ve almost convinced myself in the past it was worth buying a Maserati, that the looks and sound were worth the headache of the reliability, but I chickened out haha.

Wait, who said the performance is comparable to a Z06? Especially the C8.

Maserati have always been beautiful and unreliable..


You need to be a doctor or mechanic to own one..

The Maserati quottroporte is the highest depreciating car in Australia in the last 20 years, 72.5% over 5 years....

But no doubt stellantis european management had posters of them on their bedroom wall when they were teenagers, not American cars.......

Thinking when the Maserati works then dodge will just use their parts to build the banshit

Would you buy a Dodge version of this car with the I6TT and hybrid trans if it made over 700hp?
