Default Are Srt-6's still good in automatics?

Just wondering, since the manuals are uncommon. Also, can the seats in this car be rolled back, or are they locked in the upright position (in case I wanted to take a nap).

Can't comment on the Automatic SRT-6, although i really don't mind my N/A with an auto stick.

I can say though, don't plan on taking a nap in your car.

Also, if I have a choice, are the SRT-6's night and day better in performance then stock?

Orignal equipment SRT-6's from Chrysler were all Autosticks, none came with a manual transmission.

If you find a manual, check under the hood, cause it ain't the AMG 3.2L, and it might be one of those V8 conversions...lol.

The only chance for a nap is if it's a Coupe, your a midget, and you don't mind the fetal position in the hatchback...

Also if you're the type of guy (or girl) who likes to put performance modifications on your car, you'll probably get double the results with anything you do to the SRT-6 over the N/A.

I have one of each - both are awesome! Manuals in the SRT6 aren't uncommon - they do not exist. If you find one then you have something since none were built. If you are napping in a SRT then just aren't driving it fast enough!!!

Don't listen to these guy's. They don't know what they're talking about. Manual transmission SRT6's are no more rare than the hard top convertible SRT6's. Just watch Autotrader for a few months and you'll see one pop up.

You would be surprised. She's dealt with me for over two years! I also have that problem with her in my head. I'll hear her say something I was thinking about 10 seconds, 10 minutes, or 10 hours earlier, but the exact thought. Might be because we're both Geminis.

Back to the op, duh, no manuals on the SRT-6. That was my first major complaint about the car, then I just stomped the gas!!! Take a lot of time and autostick the hell out of it to teach the tranny,or do a paddle shift conversion(so want!!!!). There is a post on here for the cheapest SRT-6 I've heard of yet at $11,750. It has 60K miles and is black, with a full disclosure of blemishes. I love our cars, the SRT on Friday night, the yellow roadster on Sunday afternoons!
