I've heard good things about this car. Like the power and handling really hits a sweet spot, and they tune up really good. Check out thesmokingtire on youtube they have a playlist of their Fiest ST.

SWEET! Those little rockets look like a lot of fun. Congratulations.
We went the other way recently and bought a 2016 Dodge Charger R/T ScatPack. 6.4L V8 with 485Hp. Scarily fun to drive...

Nice!
Having sold Dodge cars and trucks for 14 years I remember when the Chargers first came out in the redesigned style and they came with a BIG engine. Expecially the SRT models. I alos remember the Rams when they came out with the V-10 8.0L engine. That was scary to drive! I looks like the new Chargers are really sweet. (Nothing against the Ford. My granddaughter has a Fiesta and as misguided as she is she likes it.)

Nice! I still have the '05 Magnum with the 5.7 hemi as the family car. I can imagine what an extra 140hp would be like...
My other car is electric. lol

We had the '07 HEMI Charger before this. Same engine as your Magnum. The AWD version and honestly it's night and day, feels like a lot more power. 0-60 is around 4secs, helps that it has an 8speed transmission. Very easy to fishtail in the wet though, the AWD was much easier to drive. This is not my daily driver - I have the sensible SUV for that to put the kids and dog in. My wife drives this one more than me :)
You must really love your wife. :))
I had a 65 Big Block corvette with factory side pipes and knock offs but I didn't take care of it ... I burnt it up =))

The funny thing is, when that car came out I suggested it to her as a joke figuring she would never go for it. Guess it worked out!!
@bok. I remember and regret to this day that I did not get the all-wheel-drive option. I walked right by one on the lot. It's the one that got away. Granted I live in California so I only see snow once or twice a year when I drive a few hundred miles. But still it helps.

Its funny how my desired cars has changed so much toward practicality first then fun factor. I either owned 2wd pickup or a motorcycle for the 6 years in Portland before I bought a wrx. And I friggin love it.
My new dream car is a Nissan gtr. Gotta have me that AWD. Or maybe a Tesla, that ludicrous speed option.

My neighbor across the street bought a purple Challenger Hellcat (700+ hp) a couple weeks ago, it was delivered to his house and it snowed later the same day so he hasn't even driven it yet. Going to be a long winter for him. :D
