Default What's next after the SRT?

Ok, now that I have my extended war. in place I figure to own my SRT-6 for about three more years. Now my brain starts to wonder hmmmmmm what next.

I won't own my SRT after the war. runs out for very long since I am a whimp and hate the idea of paying for repairs.

So what is out now or coming out soon that will be a good replacement in two.five to three years? Any ideas???

Cheaper to repair than replace.

Think I am hooked on the AMG method.
There are a lot of nice models to choose from.

I apologize in advance, I love my SRT 6 but I've had lustful eyes on a late model BMW M Coupe for a while now. Gorgeous, beastly, and German; hmmm... Similar to my current car haha. Guess I have a weak spot for crazy fast hatches.

I hope to keep it and add more to the stable.
Still waiting on my father-in-law to sell me his '94 Corvette. May look into a previous gen MB SL. I'd still like to have a 2004-2006 GTO at some point.
Eh, too many cars, too little $.

I'm probably going to get a daily driver in another year and keep the SRT for fun days, but if I were to replace it I would look into:

370 Z
Genesis Coupe
Camaro SS
G8 GXP
and if I get a nice raise... A brand new Corvette

This is a no-brainer.....!

You need a Dodge challenger srt-8 !

Or get the Dodge Challenger Rt with the V8 and that one come with a lifetime warranty....so u can keep it forever.

Buy American and save our automotive industry.

This is a big SORRY... Keep my SRT6. I own two other Subi's. I'll have to go with the STI. I love the new body style, all wheel drive. Fast, handles great, six speed, and has a big trunk. Fun but practical. Easy to mod. I will not buy until it becomes the king over EVO again... I have a place in mountains. SRT6 and snow don't mix in my book.

Lets see what left of the big3 in a few years - we may be up to our a$$e$ in econo-boring-gas-sipping-wiennie-mobiles.

BWT unless Mopar gets in gear the 5.7 and the 6.1 are beginning to be a bit shy on hp. With the Mustang and Camaro possibly offering 550ish hp.

I know I still want a 2002 up 911 TT aero package. Original sticker of $160k and now around $50k. That has comparable speed to my modded srt, and then some.

I like the 370's. I think that is mostly because my family is a big Nissan family.

I am trying to get my dad to purchase an SRT8 Challenger. He wants a Challenger, but I told him the only way he could purchase one is if it was an SRT8.

Sad to say, but the 370's ECU will be on the top of the list for tuners to crack. the 350 is one of the most sought after tuners and so will the 370...

However, I am not getting rid of the crossfire, just adding something else to the collection.

Well I was kinda wondering the same thing, if it was wrecked, stolen or just traded mine in. What would I get..... I have personlly owned 78 cars now and 7 bikes. I have owned my SRT6 for longer than any other car so far, 1 year and 5 months. I love the car still, but here would be my list for about $55k and under.

370z
SLK55 03'
SL55
SL65
03-06 Viper (I have had 2 of these)
Noble (depending on year and $)
911 tt

Yeah, those would be the ones I would be looking at, like I do everyday! lol

I just got mine and I am still in love with it. However if and when you decide to sell, let us know I want to own a SRT coupe and mod the hell out of it, and let my wife drive the convertible.
