Apparently it has 1350hp.
It looks like a drag car but still has all the luxury fine leather interior and more.

I think this car was on display a few years ago at SEMA.

Not a fan. I would prefer the rolls standard and put the hemi into something else.

Very fine craftsmanship. Well done.
Though not to my liking, would rather they had done some work with the RR engine and freshened up the interior. The "new" interior just doesn't have the charm of the RR.

What's with the LCD monitor in the boot?

Agreed.

I'm with all you who don't like it, just seems pointless and ruined - probably the reason it was done.

Must be the Queen's drag car - workmanmanship, though can't be faulted - superb show car, but I'm also of the opinion that the hemi may have been happier in another body.
