I always knew I liked mopar, but I never knew how much until I saw this page.
(edit: and when I say purchase, I mean what is currently on dealer lots)

They also offer alot of those vehicle with different paint scheme editions.
srt-4 ACR addition
srt-4 commemorative addition
srt-10 viper commemorative addiction
srt-10 truck commemorative addiction
srt-10 viper first edition (blue/white stripes paint scheme)
and probably more that I don't know of.

 

Choice overkill?

I like SRT-8 300C, Viper, heck, even the RAM SRT-10 is a nice piece of equipment.

Don't like Charger styling, or Magnum.

 

Its essentially two polls in one. The topics are too closely related to start a second thread and poll.

 

The SRT-8 Charger & the SRT-10 Quad Cab.

Some of the others I did not even know existed - and some of the dollars ( SRT-6 @ 46,095 ) leave me wondering why you would pay that when for another few K you are in C6 , 400HP pricing.



I guess if you are a die hard DC - whoops - Mopar fan ...

Intresting poll number_77. Very different.

I had a chance to talk to John Colletti when I did my 1st PHR article, and he was pretty bolsterous and funny when he indicated SVT would roll over SRT & gave me a pretty funny message to give to SRT's chief when I spoke to him (I'm not going to repeat it, so don't ask).

Now here it is nearly 3 years later, and SRT seems to have blown SVT out of the water (the quiet guy won over the noisy one ).

All of Chrysler's SRT models are awesome. And unlike GM (and now Ford), Chrysler doesn't wait a few years to bring out SRT versions of their new cars. It took less than a year for an SRT Jeep, Magnum, or 300. The SRT Charger came out mere months after the regular Charger did. Caliber isn't even on trailers yet, but there's already an SRT version ready to go!

There's even word of Sebring's replacement also having a version in the works!

 

Sebring SRT?!? That's certainly not the Sebring I've come to know. Are you talking convertible or coupe? I wonder if they're even going to share the same chassis. As it stands now they're basically 2 different cars.

 

I didn't know about the SRT Jeep. I glanced at it, and that thing is really nice. I wonder if Jeep will extend the wrangler line to an off road Rubicon styled SRT.

Seeing all of those cars lined up really dropped my jaw. The gauges on some of those cars are just beautiful.

I was asking about GM starting there own perfomance line a few years back. I thought that if they could do something like SVT, but extend it, and make is way better, that it could have some appeal. Like Guionm said, DCX has really shown what they're made of! GM is just now catching up with the SS series cars, but they aren't as quick as the SRTs.

Man, I really can't get over that Jeep! They're saying 0-60 in under 5 seconds! edit: And .92G on the skippad!

Thanks for the compliment.
Just so you guys know, I did not start this thread to ridicule GM, its just that Dodge/Chrysler are doing a heck of a job from an enthusiast's view. A few years ago I was also saying (along with a few others)that we may have a muscle car war to rival the 60's. This is really beyond anything I was expecting. I hoping for a stang. vs. camaro vs. challenger. We're getting the whole-shebang. This SRT lineup reminds me of DCX's involvement with AMG for the mercedes line.
I just want to repeat though that I'm not blasting GM, they have their own problems right now and obviously can't afford a full line of hi-performance cars.

Its kind of wierd actually. DCX released the 300C, which was sort of against the tide (at that time only old people were known for buying big bodied cars). They got a foot hold and sort of risked it again, the momentum kept building and who would've though, 11 models of Hi-performance vehicles. And like Guionm and other folks have been saying (about the up coming Challenger, and possibly a challenger and sebring SRT model ), this show isn't over.

 

im a huge fan of the SRT8's . . . just waiting for a 2 door version. Ive seen the 425hp hemi in action at the dealer i worked at. lets just say one second at half throttle was about enough for it to be ready to shift into second

 

I voted i liked all.

i'd take...
*SRT4 over the cobalt SS even though SS is better car. SRT4 just has more attitude. Turbo > S/c too.
*Charger SRT over GTO (i know it costs a bit more, but closest thing). SRT8 has more attidude.
*SRT8 Jeep over TB (close one though). Again, the SRT8 Cherokee has more attidude.
* Viper over z06 even though i think z06 is better car. Weekend/Toy only car so i'd probably go for exclusivty/style. I really don't care for that extra couple of tenths or the comfort advantages z06 would have. If it were a DD or a weekend racer, i'd go for the z06 though.
* SRT10 Ram has no equals.

That's one thing i've noticed. Dodges SRT line has alot more attitude than GM/Ford perfomance line even when and if GM/Ford performance line comes in faster.

 

Im a dodge guy, owning 6 mopars. I like the srt10 ram. I would buy a corvette before I bought one though.

 

I am a Mopar guy. I like the SRT-4, Magnum SRT-8 and SRT-10 truck. Compared to any GM car, the SRT-4 is the best bang for buck performance car you can get.

I am not a fan of the new Charger style so that SRT-8 is not my favorite.

Wow, I didn't realize the awesome lineup Dodge/Chrysler had until right now. I'm serious. What's most impressive is that 10 of the 11 cars on that page are RWD. Incredible. A GTO will still beat most of those cars while looking half as cool.

EDIT: Am I alone in thinking the SRT4 looks more dated every single day? It doesn't even look like it belongs up there with the rest of those cars. I don't care how much bang for the buck that thing gives, I'd feel like a joke driving one.

 

I like the Viper Roadster, SRT10 P/U, and the 'lil neon...I agree with it being the best bang for the buck...just needs a face lift, as someone else pointed out.
Seems to be an over-use of the "SRT" badging similar to the current SS line up...(to me).
Give me the 'Ol R/T days...

 

SRT is strictly hardcore performance though. Almost all their vehicles (except for the SRT4 neon) are Rwd and have 425+ horses. By comparison, Chevy currently has only ONE SS that's not Fwd and that's the TB SS which is available in AWD/Rwd....rest are Fwd and not as powerful as SRT line. Quite a difference actually. SRT's overuse isn't much of an issue in my opinion. I actually like it.

I don't mind GM"s use of SS either (except on upcoming N/A Cobalt SS) but they appear to have a completely different strategy than SRT which seems to be more hardcore.

 

The Cherokee srt8 is 4wd
