I got the SRT6 because i am a HUGE fan of the SRT brand, I had my SRT4 well modded, people on the streets always complimented the car on its looks. Now i'm in a SRT^, and i'm noticing people looking at the car like they have never seen one before. Today i had a guy in a Caddy XRL give me props for the car, not too shabby to have someone in a $80k car give you a compliment. I notice a lot of older people (older then me, i'm 26) like the car a LOT.

Can't wait til the weather gets nicer and i can wax it and detail it and hit the streets and just cruise while enjoying the car.

 

I've owned a lot of cool/fast/unusual cars and never had a set of wheels whose styling is such a topic of conversation. It was weird at first, bunch of strangers standing around your car discussing the styling! Then you get the questions...it's still amazing how many people know nothing about these cars. But they DO get attention and provoke opinions unlike anything I've ever driven.

I've always liked the styling of the Chrysler cars, but only from 1968-1971, and then a renewed resurgence of interest in 2004-2006... and now the 2008 Dodge Demon and Challenger are coming out. Forget about the 1980's, too many drugs for people to get anything right back then.

Rides I've owned:

1970 Dodge Challenger R/T
1971 Cuda 340
(was an idiot and sold them in 1997 at 1/6 of $ what they would get now).
2005 Dodge SRT-4 with Stage 3/toys, frame-brace, trac bars, coilovers (faster than my old Cuda and handles much better).
2005 Crossfire SRT-6 stylish, great brakes, but believe it or not, it's ride is harsher than an SRT4 with adjustable coilovers, and some serious frame/traction work... Maybe it's those skinny sidewalls on 19" rims.

Either way, they are or were fun at the time... classics in the making... until we all start driving magneto hybrid electric quiet rail-gun like cars with renewable energy sources made from human and animal waste, combined with wind power from the mouths of Republican politicians talking about Iraq.

Haha, let's not go there. Nah, she was actually seeing another guy before me and she had thought it was over, but in fact it wasn't. They "worked some things out" as she told me...Oh well. Her loss!

Better than listening to the anti-American, traitorous spewing from the Dims.

 

Civility please...

Name-calling and personal attacks are the first resort of those who cannot support their positions with reason or facts. Open dissent and a free exchange of ideas and opinion is neither un-American or treason. It is the life-blood of a true democracy. If we give that away that then we have betrayed the sacrifice of all who have gone before us.

Lets not start a political row in a automotive board.

There are other forums for that.
