    Hellcat or GT350

    Without factoring in the slight difference of price, which one would you buy and why? I know there are more Ford loyalists on here, but try not to answer with a biased brand opinion.

    Before we dig deeper, Hellcat Challenger or Charger?

    I think for me it would depend on the amount of aftermarket product support, and the "tax" added on for those parts. *cough* GT-R tax *cough*
    That assumes of course I've driven both and like them equally, and I haven't driven either one. If I had to guess, the GT350 is more fun to drive.
    The GT350 certainly looks better. I readily admit the Hellcat sounds fantastic.

    I have seen both cars in person and was more wow'd by the looks of the gt350. They are head turners.

    I don't know much about the GT350. If it can be in a body in white, no stripes, then I would go for it over the Hellcat Challenger.

    If your interests are drag racing, Hellcat all day. Like high rpm panty dropping music and turning the steering wheel? GT350

    I love both cars and would be happy with either, but I think Ford stole my brain and designed the exact car I want and made the GT350 so I do prefer it over the Hellcat.

    If you are drag racing then the Hellcat with the auto tranny is what you want. The auto would get REALLY boring to me real quick. Like Mark said - if you like to go left and right then the GT350 is your choice. I agree the Hellcat sounds great....but the high RPM song of the GT350 makes me stiff in the pants.

    I think I'm with the general consensus that the 350 looks way better, but without driving either one my gut tells me I'd like the hellcat better. For me more torque always equals more fun on the street. Every review of the 350 I've seen says it's pretty gutless below 3500 RPM even compared to a regular mustang GT.

    I'd take a Charger over the Challenger. Hate the look of it.

    So obviously the GT350 over the Challenger.

    But if they would make a Magnum Hellcat (the wagon version)..............

    Neither car would see a track of any kind. My dad is looking at downsizing his collection and trading 2 of his cars for one and these are 2 of his choices he is considering. A magnum Hellcat would be a no brainer for me!

    Just rode in my first GT350 last night. That car rips and was said before is more than a 1 trick pony. Not even a question.

    Interesting. GT-R, GT350, or Hellcat, I'd have to take the GT-R.
