Default Some Good SRT-6 Publicity

MUSCLE CAR ENTHUSIAST magazine reports in its March 07 issue, that the SRT-6 is the second fastest car they've tested. The 2007 Shelby GT500 is the fastest.
They said, "With its German pedigree and supercharged V-6, the Crossfire SRT6 wasn't a muscle car in the traditional sense. It just ran like one. This pint-sized rocket was a blast at the track, launching hard and running steady mid-13-second times."
Coming from a magazine that usually focuses on "classic" muscle car iron, having them actually notice the SRT6 was pretty astonishing all by itself.
This should open some eyes for those "enthusiast" who probably never gave a Crossfire a second thought.

Mike I assume that magazine is not online too, or is it? If it's not is there any way you can scan the pages and post them here for us?

Glad to see the SRT6 is getting some respect. Good post.

A "Good" article two years too late . . . DC not making the SRT6 anymore! Those of us that have the pleasure of driving this beauty each day can feel reassured of our feelings from the first impressions we felt on our first drive when an article like this presents itself.

Too bad they couldn't get low 13's like other mags have. Heck my T/A will do mid 13's all day and the SRT-6 is quicker to me.

Cool post if anyone has the magazine could they post the article. If it doesn't break any copywrite laws.

My modified 500 hp '03 Cobra could do high 11's, but it could never corner like my SRT-6. The SRT-6 is not a muscle car or a drag strip car but it rules on road courses. Not only that, have you priced a Shelby GT500 lately? $45k MSRP including gas guzzler tax and the dealers want $20k over that.
