I just had a black car, it shows imperfections too much. So, I went with Red. It's an RT, so it's the same engine as the SRT and the Daytona. Just not as fancy. And i'm hanging on to it untill it's paid off.

The R/T has a 340 horse, 390 ft/lbs of torque 5.7L Hemi.
The SRT-8 has a 425 horse, 420 ft/lbs of torque 6.1L hemi.

different engines unfortunately :(

But still, 340 hp isnt anything to scoff at. Especially in a 4 door car. power + everyday usablity for teh win!

My co-worker has the silver SRT Charger. They special ordered it prior to release and paid full MSRP for it. Ran it at Moroso a couple weeks back at got into the mid 13's. Now they want a piece of the Vette. To bad they never detail the thing and she already scuffed one of the 20's backing into a parking spot. She drives it daily, and he gets to beat on it thru the weekend. Really a nice ride given it size (they are huge when getting up close) but I still think a Charger should only have 2 doors.

I agree that they should only have two doors otherwise they are a real grocery getter. :D

Baby oil, if you are as pale as you say you will burn within 5 mins. in the sun! :( Can't wait to see the car with some Pinnacle on it! :eek:

UPDATE:

I got pulled over. :). The R/T is a little faster than the 2.5 Altima.

No ticket however... and I'll be detailing this officers Cobra sometime within the next few weeks, for a small fee of 200.

Good times good times.


(Pictures coming soon... It's been crappy out.)

whoa hang on a minute... did you get out of the ticket because you offered him detailing services or is he a previous customer? and yes, torque is addictive
