Sat in and rode in the new Charger EV at Barrett Jackson

Had a chance to get up and personal with the new Charger EV at Barrett Jackson. I even had a chance for a “Thrill Ride.” The car is much better in person. The interior is an upgrade. The exhaust is not as bad as I feared. They were in drift mode and it handled the weight shockingly well. I don’t want one, but I didn’t hate it like I thought I would. Throw a Redeye with 800hp in it and drop some weight, and it could be a cool car.

I don’t hate the look.

A little off topic, cars are selling for stupid money there. While I missed the details, a ‘67 Chevy Nova pro-mod/custom went for $700,000! Hard to imagine what was under that body to make it worth that much.

I saw a 'Cuda AAR go for just over $100K??? Was it a tribute car or something???
