Roadster has had zero problems, other than a window rattle fixed under warranty (and the TPM light is on all the time). The SRT6 had the i/c replaced under warranty and blew out an air temperature sensor under hard acceleration, but otherwise has been fault free. Roadster has 34k miles and SRT6 at 14k. Since I rarely hit the "go" button on the SRT6, even it does not see hard service, although I find myself accelerating harder than I ever would in the roadster. Maybe it's the growl or being pushed back in the seat. And one goes 150 mph (been to 140) and the other 158 (been to 150), so both are fast enough to kill me or have me locked up for a long time. But both are fun to drive, draw gawkers, and are a dream to detail on a warm summer afternoon while enjoying a microbrew and a stogie.

never saw a 3200cc, and as you had quoted 3.2 liter I had to ask. Thanks
for the clarification.
Sincerely,
