Are they even affordable? Or did they pull a Gtr on us. I recall they were supposed to start at $75k. Maybe it's the market right now but I remember all SRT, demon cars, hell cat are all over $100k |

What do you mean affordable?
You get a lot of car for the same amount of a base model performance European equivalent like a 911. When you start adding up all the goodies on a 911 or an M car, it gets pretty expensive.

I'm creaming my pants from all the sound clips that I've heard from this thing. Then again, I'm sure that soundtrack is only good when the revs are kept high.
