The whole overly firm suspension is really more 80's thought than present day. IE if the car beats the **** out of you, then it handles good! It does feel like the steering response is quicker than my Limited, which I like! I just drove the car to breakfast and back and got the same impressions as last night (non-linear throttle response, and crashy suspension). I'm going to take it out on some windy Unwearied Mountains back roads today and see what I think of the car, I'll report back later today with my thoughts, and pics of the two babies.
That stiff suspension is exactly what i like about it - like said above, different strokes for different folks.
The Limited is far from 'cush', but the SRT is definitely a bit more firm.
Lantana - all 04's were limited, so I guess you could indeed call all 04's a limited!
