What's the better buy?
Opinions appreciated. What is the better buy. A 2005 SRT-6 roadster or a 2008 limited roadster. Both; black, 40kish mi., $17-18k, vg.-ex. condition. Thanks in advance for any help.

Re: What's the better buy?
you're kidding......... if you gotta ask, then the SRT6 is not for you
|
Re: What's the better buy?
No question, the SRT-6 is.

Re: What's the better buy?
SRT-6 roadster Only 928 of them were made!

Re: What's the better buy?
That's an easy one, SRT6

Re: What's the better buy?
Wait let me think............................................. ...Limited...................no, no wait.........yep Limited. Do you have the phone number for the guy selling that not so good a deal SRT6???? Would hate to see anybody get burnt by buying an old 05 SRT. I'll just pick it up and get it off the market. :rolleyes:

Re: What's the better buy?
Wait, is the Limited a manual???
|
Re: What's the better buy?
If the Limited is the last car by VIN number.....that would be a fiind.

Re: What's the better buy?
I have owned four Crossfires, 3 N/A and my current SRT-6. My Limiteds were great, but the SRT-6 is by far the most fun car I have ever owned.

Re: What's the better buy?
If they are both automatics, then the SRT6 is a no-brainer. If the roadster is a stick, you have to decide whether you want to paddle a car that gets to 60 in 6.5 seconds and can do 150mph, or just push the go-button on a car that does it in 4.6 seconds and has an 8 mph higher top end. I like both of mine, but they are different performance cars. Also, the SRT6 averages 23 mpg while the n/a is closer to 30.

Re: What's the better buy?
Forgive me onehundred80. I wasn't aware I was "on your clock!!!" BTW, already have a white 06 roadster & looking at options, including "tire kicking" an 06 SL500 or an 07 SL550.
For the other non-a**hole responses, thanks for your input! If I decide to go the Crossfire route again, it will definitely be a black SRT-6 roadster. Regards, DA |

Regards, DA You never said you had one already which might have altered some of the responses you got, including mine. Apart from asking about an SRT in your first post we did not have much to go on at all. If you want a black SRT roadster then Iblubyu (?) has an immaculate one for sale. |
