I can get a 2008 variant of the Pontiac convertible for the same price as an 05 SRT6 roadster. The Pontiac/Saturn being 3 years newer with a warranty.
I have never driven one of Pontiac/Saturn cars and absolutely loved my SRT. The AMG motor was amazing. Any ideas as to the pros and cons of each? Surely opinions will be biased but I'd like to hear them.
Thanks,

WHY? If you really owned an SRT6 before why would you even ask. A supercharged engine modified by AMG. A first class sports car.Powerful,beautiful,safe and reliable. And your asking the opinions of CF owners in one of the best CF forums in the country. What do you want to here.
I drive a 268+HP modified Limited. I would take my Limited over those any day. Have driven both. They are what people refer to "as cute". They are also small.
Three years ago I sold my 12.4 sec 1/4 mile Miata. It had quite a lot of mods that were done by a company called Flying Miata, including their stage 3 turbo. This car was a monster in terms of raw power. But it was small in terms of size, even with the custom body components. It was beautiful to look at inside and out. My point..dangerous in todays traffic and crappy drivers.I could drive one of those underneath a Semi. I feel relatively safe in a Crossfire, much, much safer. The SRT6 is an exceptional solid, seat of your pants fast car and it's classy, not cute. Doesn't get much better then that.
