Default Hi from a newbie

All the way from Northern Ireland and just bought a SRT 6. Looking forwards to picking it up from dealer on Wednesday.

I've been browsing through the forum and SRT 6 owners seem a very contented bunch. After two test drives I can understand why. What an amazing machine. I'm moving from a Jag X 2.5 Sport which was no slouch but is just not in the same league.

With the kids grown up and gone and my wife's car sitting unused I thought it was time to buy something of a hooligan. The SRT 6 fitted the bill and the price. Ex Dealer demonstrator with 4k miles for equivalent of US$ 45k. New over here the SRT 6 is about US$ 65k

With petrol at the equivalent of almost $8 per US gallon over here and road tax at $800 per year for high CO2 emissions; you can see why dealers are giving discounts. Same Chrysler/Dodge dealer has a Viper SRT 10 convertible sitting on the forecourt, brand new. UK list is equivalent of US$ 140k. Told me he would take $100k!

Maybe next time.

Anyhow, I will keep y'all posted and try and contribute regularly to the forum.

All the best,
Andy G
