My Charger had 92,000 miles and needed some work but ran great, but this Crossfire was like a brand new car with 5,600 miles. I do miss the room, and the torque, ah the torque... I still have a 1967 El Camino with a 350 that runs effectively identical to the Charger, so I am not totally without the experience. If I got a Challenger, I would look hard for a Shaker, and 6 speed.
I'm glad to hear you really enjoyed your Challenger, I know you will enjoy the Crossfire. Its like a refined go-cart on steroids.
I loved the supercharger whine, but I missed the big V-8 sound. The 392 in this new one is awesome, gas consumption not so much!!!
I went for the 393 Scat Pack, the Shaker and the SRT were another $5,000 - 10,000, too rich for my blood.
