to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

Hey guys,
I'm thinking about selling my SRT-6 roadster because I'm running out of garage space and I'll be taking delivery of my next toy in December.

I'm really enjoying this car but having two 2-seeters seems excessive. I'm trying to decide if I should sell her as it sits with all the aftermarket goodies included or put everything back to stock and sell the parts or just be stupid and have five cars between my wife and I.

Is it worth keeping if it means sitting outside covered? I guess I'm just being stupid but I'm having a hard time thinking about getting rid of such a fun car.
I edited because I accidently said two roadsters by mistake.

You finally got her all setup didn't you? I'm still waiting to see some timeslips with nitrous =)

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

be stupid and have 5 cars...

i say pay for a storage space for your new car... as a project place to work on it... since you showed me what you are getting you should keep it secretive until its done...

then come up to eurocharged and let them tune it haha.

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

As soon as I saw the title, "NOT TO SELL" came to mind.
Stupid and five cars. What's that make me with 17 cars?!
Guess I'm just a bloomin' idiot!

I am trying to get rid of a few cars though cuz the Crossfires have all of my attention now. Anybody wanta trade an SRT or red roadster for a sweeeet 65 Chevelle SS?

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

I would do that, but I don't have a '65 Chevelle SS to give you...:rolleyes:

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

Yea Me too,
Unfortunately the local track down here would not let me run without a roll bar (twice I’ve tried) NHRA Regs Roll bar required in convertibles faster than 13 sec. I’ve been waiting for a dry day when I could try my luck in Hattiesburg MS. or State Capital in Baton Rouge.

Hey Matt,
At 695 horsepower and 890 lb-ft of torque, tune not necessary unless I plan on being buried in it;)
Perhaps a dyno shoot out would be fun.

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

When is your plan date on completing it??? Because I know the guys would love to have you bring it up for Hot Import Nights next year in April if its done. I'll be driving back over there for it.

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

Wow i know what car your getting.. but i think you should keep it.

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

Ok, now I am curious enough to bite..... What kind of car is tri_zombie getting. Enquiring minds want to know. :eek: Sounds like a monster of a ride.

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

2008 RENNtech CL 65 AMG Stage 3?

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

Zombie: honestly, you won't get much for the SRT-6, so why sell it? Why risk it "falling into the wrong hands" LOL

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

No he is NOT getting that...besides, forget Renntech, overpriced.

This is a fun game...guess the car. I'll give you a hint it is definitely a PROJECT car.

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

well i thought it was the cl haha i just took his specs and googled.. but if thats not it i have no idea.

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

Ok I'll give you a hint, Matt is correct it is a project. Weighing in at 2350 lbs, mid engine 438ci v8 w/twin Garrett Gt35R turbos is rated @ 695HP and 890ftlbs torque @ 11psi, the engine is being built to handle 20+psi safely and I'll be able to control the boost remotely.
Looking at the power to weight ratio I should be running in the very low 10's mid 9's and 0-100 under 5 seconds and easily be a 200mph+ car.

Now I would love to have the sl-65 renntech but for the money and after test driving a 2009 sl-65 I decided to go with something that would really give me the performance level I'm wanting for both track www.nolamotor.com and for the strip. That's why I'm trying to decide if I should keep the SRT-6 and have two 2-seaters. The money from the crossfive would probably cover the trans, brakes and wheels.
But I know I would end up missing it!

Can I just tell them Colin?

He is looking at buying a FactoryFive GTM.

GTM Supercar



mmmm corvette engine with a porsche trans...nice.

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

The engine and G50 transaxle are ordered and the car should be delivered in time for Christmas.

Re: to sell or not to sell... that's the question
 

I have always like the FactoryFive Products. I used to dream about having a Cobra Kit car. Factory Five was at the top of my list. Sounds like a dream project.
