REAR-WHEEL drive, two doors and a powerful, force-fed V8 is a recipe for guaranteed success in our books.

If you’re after something along these lines, the most obvious option available locally is the awesome Mercedes-AMG C63 S Coupe. Powered by a monstrous 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, it’s essentially a high-end muscle car in a fancy suit. We’re big fans of its looks, noise, speed and dynamics on road and track and Aussie sales figures suggest that we’re far from the only ones.

But what if you want real power? Not just the sort of power that can overthrow governments and rule countries, but enough power to conquer the universe. Thanks to Melbourne’s Crossover Car Conversions you can have a fully registered, right-hand drive version of Dodge’s berserk Challenger Hellcat.

Not only is that a whopping 152kW/181Nm more than the similarly priced C63, but it’s more power than any production car on-sale in Australia bar the Ferrari 812 Superfast (588kW; $610,000), Tesla Model S P100D (568kW; $250,582) and Lamborghini Aventador S (545kW; $788,914).

2016 Dodge Hellcat – 10km, manual, $189,000

Hellcats are few and far between in Australia, but Mustang Motorsport has this recently converted model available with a mere 10km on the clock, making it effectively brand new. Big money, but you’ll stand out!
