By all accounts, the SRT is a very reliable car and for the most part is issue free. As with any car forum, you will hear when something goes wrong with a car, but that does not mean it is a systemic problem with the model. Please enlighten me on these failures and maintenance problems. Thanks
While I feel the same as you do, and these are very stout cars, the one thing that worries me about an SRT is the supercharger. I know how ungodly expensive a new one is and its not exactly cheap to correctly refurb one. We have had a handful of members here who have had to do these, I believe most under warranty, but if you were without warranty and had a failure and wanted to put the car to OEM specs, it could cost you several thousand, if not more. Until I find a 6 speed SRT, don't think I much want one anyway
