Imagine you're getting smoked by a 7 year old dad-mobile with paddle shifters. And I'm not even running a Cobb tune. That isn't a muscle car. That's a synthol car.

- themafia 1y agoA Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat does 0-60 in 3.6s. A Suzuki GSX-1000 can do it in 2.5s.

- themafia 1y agoYou're right next to the point yet you've missed it. The Rivian has a wide range of performance _options_. With only the "2025 Rivian R1T Ascend Quad Max" having the performance you've quoted. How is the "ascend quad max" segment ideologically different from the "srt hellcat" segment? Likewise the _standard_ Tesla 3 has quite a bit different 0 to 60 times than what you've quoted here. Do you really think your soccer mom is buying the "performance" edition of the vehicle and not the "long range?" Which proves the point, performance options are not dead, and EVs only continue the trend, they don't obviate it.
- dumbmrblah 1y agoHow is that any different from the charger base model versus the hellcat?
- jaggs 1y agoOoh this is fun. The $72K Xiaomi SU7 Ultra does 0-62mph in 1.98s. Do I win the teddy bear? :) https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1145870_2025-xiaomi-su7-ultra-price https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1145870_2025-xiaomi-su7-...
- omgwtfbyobbq 1y agoYes, yes you do.
- standeven 1y agoHusband of a hockey mom here. Yes, they do get the performance model. And even the long range dual motor models are silly quick.
- GenerWork 1y agoNow compare your Forester to the V8 Charger with the base Hemi. Who would win?
- MSFT_Edging 1y agoThe Charger GT is essentially the rental-spec charger. Not a great comparison. Besides, Muscle cars are often more about torque and the front-engine rwd layout. In the 70s they were all slow as shit but could still peel tires and do burnouts. Also, for those in-the-know, the mid 2000s Honda Accord v6 was about as fast as the mustang of that time, but obviously drove very different.
- quickthrowman 1y agoI don’t have a dog in this fight, but this comparison is odd. You’re comparing the fastest Forester (XT turbocharged) to the slowest V6 Charger. The slowest V8 Charger does 0-60 in 5.1 seconds. The fastest one does 0-60 in 3.6 seconds.
- georgeecollins 1y ago6.3 is not fast these days. I don't worry about being smoked by any Subaru (loved my WRX in the day) but dual motor Teslas? I ease off.
