blogentry-133713-0-74204500-1426559206_thumb.jpgDodge has paused the order taking for the Challenger and Charger SRT Hellcat so that it can honor existing orders for the muscle cars in its own home country. According to Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) which issued the statement, it is not sure when it will resume taking orders but rumors online suggest it will resume only in August.

 

blogentry-133713-0-77133000-1426560157_thumb.jpgThis is because demand for its 707bhp high performance models haven been too overwhelmingly good and the limited supply has frustrated both dealers and buyers. FCA has even gone to accused some of the dealers for marking up the retail price by a big margin and taking orders that they will may not be able to fulfill.

 

blogentry-133713-0-05508300-1426560125_thumb.jpgTill now, more than 2,200 Hellcats have been delivered. Since September, Dodge has received more than 9,000 orders which is double the annual sales planned by FCA.

Time to buy shares in Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. How many car companies can say we need to stop taking orders as there are too many customers that want to buy. :)

Sigh, if only Chrysler makes a RHD Challenger and Charger Hellcat.

 

Seriously to sinkies whose mindset is stuck with exotic Europeans machinery, you need to test out the Challenger Hellcat and tell me if your Porsche and Lambo still makes sense or not.

 

Rem, both the Hellcats can be as mild mannered as your B&B sedan. And yes both are designed to handle hot weather and bad traffic jams, and they will do your weekly supermarket shopping and dropping kids off to sch just fine.

 

And both can handle ultra long distance driving without breaking a sweat..

 

But when you put the foot down, all the Euro exotic machines just stand one side la... LOL.

 

At a fraction of the cost only

  • Godzilla Minus One: Surprisingly emotional and poignant

    When one thinks of Godzilla movies, one imagines an oversized amphibious dinosaur generating a terrifying heat ray from its mouth and fighting with other oversized monsters. Meh, nothing special, right? Wrong. Here’s why Godzilla Minus One should be an action movie you should definitely catch. In this version, the timeless clash between monster and man is once again set against the tumultuous backdrop of post-war Japan. But, unlike typical action films that dive headfirst into destruction a

    Forget the Future - Embrace the Past

    Ah, the future. That shiny, chrome-plated paradise we're all supposed to be chasing. Well, I say bollocks to that. Let's take a cheeky detour down memory lane instead, shall we? Imagine you're lounging in a velvet smoking jacket, sipping brandy from a crystal snifter, surrounded by dusty tomes and antique globes. Sounds rather spiffing, no? That's because old is gold, methinks. While everyone else is frantically scrolling through their social media feeds, we'll be gleefully embracing t

    The enduring charm of Singapore wet markets

    I know I’m idealising it all - as a not-so-young millennial that can’t remember the last time he cooked a full meal for himself. (That was probably a good two years ago.) But moving on slightly from morning walks now, the space I’ve found myself frequenting when I feel like I need a break from the routines of everyday life (or to simply clear my head) isn’t the park. It’s the basement level of Punggol Plaza. That a wet market even exists here should be surprising. Punggol, after all, is qui

    Cordless vacuum cleaners: A young adult's best friend?

    Every young adult probably arrives at the same point when they’ve started working for a few years: Household chores start to become more enjoyable. Don’t get me wrong – they don’t have to be one’s favourite activity on earth. But chores start to make sense: An environment that’s put-together is always a welcome haven, whether it’s returning home after a long day out, or simply staying in over the weekend (or when you’re working from home.) As a young adult myself, I've come to appreciate an
