2016 Dodge Charger Hellcat...MEOW!

It's big, it's burly and it's gonna make you feel like a badass.

I love two-seater, RWD convertibles and own a 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata for pavement fun and a lifted 2001 Miata for pre-running. I race air-cooled Volkswagens in desert races like the Mint 400 and the Baja 1000. I have won the Rebelle Rally, seven-day navigational challenge, twice and I am the only driver to compete in an EV, the Rivian R1T.

Unless you've been hiding under a rock, you've probably heard about the 707 horsepower Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat.

The 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine bellows out a glorious roar as well as 650 pound-feet of torque.

Not surprisingly, the gas mileage isn't the best. The Hellcat returns 13 mpg in the city, 22 mpg on the highway and 16 mpg combined.

The Hellcat has a top speed of 204 mph. That is not a typo, people.

The Charger Hellcat weighs 4,570 pounds, with a wheelbase of just over 120 inches. It is quite the burly beast.

The 2016 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat starts at $62,945, but my test model with a few options like an upgraded stereo system, Pirelli P Zero summer tires and the mandatory gas guzzler tax, you're looking at $72,225.

Power goes to the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission.

Can you imagine this bad boy pulling up behind you on the highway? It's enough to make a Prius actually get out of the fast lane!

The interior is pretty sleek, but there are a few retro touches that harken back to the original Charger.
