45k and all you guys are comparing is speed? There are a lot of other factors to consider other than how fast an SRT6 can go around a track. Especially when your comparing it against Porsches, which obviously are a whole another class.. 45k gets you the cheapest Porsche, or the most expensive Chrysler. They are totally different but the SRT6 will probably beat any Boxster, any day of the week. Plus most people aren't going to be racing on the track to begin with.

What about looks? For 45k I think you can get a car that looks as good as something that costs 200k. Plus it looks different than anything else on the road, even regular xfires, which are rare and different enough to begin with.

Granted this is just one example of a ton of factors that any prospective buyer must consider. I just don't think its right to say "Dont buy this car, because our Porsches outran it at the track". If you want a Porsche, your gonna get a Porsche. If you want a Crossfire, get a Crossfire or SRT6. Not everyone wants a used Porsche. Some people may want a new car thats pretty damn sweet IMO.
