700+ HP. 20 mpg in econo mode? Maybe LOL, still for a straight line muscle car, with all the options on the computer, I'd take one LOL.

Very impressive for sure. If I could afford a $60K car plus its insurance (which won't be cheap), I'd snag one for sure. I wonder how high the HP #s will go with production cars until it goes the other way again?

As high as the EPA will let it.

Right now there is a loop hole that allows them to build such things. The fleet of cars they build have to meet a certain.... combined limit. I don't know if its MPG or carbon output, but as long as the entire line of cars they sell average up to whatever that value is they can make monsters like this.

It's MPG and perhaps models like this will be too limited to really effect those #s.

That's the beauty of it, it's not just about straight lines. I'll probably never have one, but these cars are beautiful.. Now, back to tinkering with my Magnum..
