For some reason I am having trouble uploading pics to this site, wether its in my gallery or in a post. I'll keep working on it.
I drove around my new SRT-6 this weekend and man, this car does not even compare to the base Crossfire. You can tell this car was made for a race track. I love the sound of the engine and the feel of all that power. Even with the Conti tires the car takes corners better than my '04 coupe with the pilots. While on my first drive with the car I thought to myself that this car just had a whole different personality than the base Xfire. I imagine if they did have personalities that my base Xfire would be a spunky teenage girl chirping "Come on man, lets go for a drive yah, yah, it will be fun yeehah!" And my SRT-6 would be more like a big husky man with a deep voice saying, " You want to drive me? You think you can handle me? I'm gonna make you wet your panties, now step on that gas pedal until it hits the floor and keep it there you mommas boy!" I took it out today and quickly, REALLY quickly got it up to 150. I don't know if its the blue color or engine noise that makes it stand out more, but I get more looks and people wanting to race than with my silver Xfire, and now I can be more confident against almost any car out there. Just a WONDERFUL car!
Now here are some "new owner issues" I have.
1. Does the SRT-6 have the 7 year powertrain warranty? I want to transfer it over, but it came with a special SRT-6 warranty manual that does not mention the powertrain warranty, but it is mentioned in the owners manual.
2. When I don't have my foot on the gas and coast, especially down a steep hill I hear a real faint whistling noise. Is this the supercharger and is it normal?
3. There is a weird noise from the rear hatch. It is a creak noise that sounds almost like rain drops hitting the car. I had a different noise from the latch on my '04 coupe and had that fixed. Is this the same issue with the SRT-6 model or is this sound a different issue. They are completely different noises.
