Default first longish drive srt-6

I drove my 05 srt roadster to the coast and back yesterday with my mate and his 04 na coupe, 600kms round trip ,both cars ran Great , a lotta fun .
the roads varied between smooth highway to mountain roads with hairpins , some pretty rough surfaces too which is typical here in oz.
i found the suspension to be a bit harsh on the rougher stuff so im am glad i have new shocks and springs going in soon.
i have also ordered a new steering damper as the car now has 81k kms on it so it cant hurt.
we were both surprised at the good fuel economy , didnt buy or drive for that ,mine used 9.3 liters per hundred ks

mateys na coupe did 8.1 !!

very happy !
merry xmas to y'all

Great to see you are enjoying your SRT-6 - and that your friend got himself a Coupe.
Nothing like a nice long cruise in a Crossfire (either variety)
The nice thing about our weather is that you'll get plenty of opportunities to cruise with the top down
Enjoy the Aussie summer and take good care of your new baby

Yes, Some cruising and some just concentrate and Hang On .

I will take care very good of it,its for sure a very special car .

It gets so much positive comment too, people ask me if its a new model !
ha they would probably sell well now if it was.
Alas, its one of only 79 srt-6 roadsters ever built in right hand drive.
its sad really
oh well . ;-)
