such an awesome car to drive
The SRT-8s are great cars, don't get me wrong, but once you get past the hype and the initial impressions, you start to notice the short comings. The pre-programmed slow shifts, the open dif, the ridiculous ESP settings (early '06 and 05s) interior quality is lacking, and these are NOT cheap vehicles. There is more that I'd like to see change, but I wouldn't turn one down, but after all the experience I have driving them, I don't think that I'd buy one.
Why will the Challenger be better? Because if they F-it up, they're really left with only the Viper IMO. The Caliber SRT-4 is such a ridiculous looking hunk of crap that I've lost a bit of faith.
I should mention that I'm a huge fan of the new Viper, the Challenger, and even the 300C SRT-8 still, but I have my issues with the SRT-8 Lineup. There's just too much that they've left out IMO.
The few upgrades to the interior for 08 made a big difference IMHO. Now that the code is available, the shifts are only a tune away, and the ESP is easy My buddie ran wire taps to the fuse panel, put an inlie fuse and switch in the dash, so you flip the switch, and allESP functions are gone. These are all good things, because the Challenger is on the same platform, and most of the leg work has been completed by this point.
