I've drove them all including the SRT8 300c and the Magnum SRT8. They are extremely quick.They handle great,stop great and for the price you can't beat it.Alot of people on here can't think outside the Honda or Import box. I love all cars pretty much so I don't diss on them.They all have their good and bad points.
I'm in the process of trying to get a Charger SRT8 I want to trade my GXP and Dakota R/T.

Jeep/Chrysler is digging themselves in a hole with all this SRT6/8/10/Hemi bullsh*t... Hello tank-gasguzzlers!! Do they not wonder why they're sales are low and the Imports are becoming topsellers?

well seeing as how companies always test their high performance cars in the worst conditions possible to get their acceleration #'s I would bet its wet. I don't know why they put all this money in to developing a new car then test it in the rain. It just doesn't make sense. Just like your question. Of course its on a dry track. wow. I hope you were being sarcastic.

I would say that I am not stuck in the import box. Its just that dodge as a company is horrible from the way they have always made there cars to how they treat there mechanics. In my exp they have either had really good drive train and the car fell apart or the car held together but the drivetrain sucked. For instance the old skool charger they ran greeaat but every time you shut the door some thing fell off(i am not kidding my dad had one). Or my coworker who has a durango 2001 and has had the auto tranny replaced three times with less than 130k on it, not to mention that it has a horrible iihs frontal impact rating.. I would say that dodge has alot to prove in my mind to get them selves out of there past. Now the whole jeep thing is a sore subject. They took a really good 4x4 name and fliped it into junk. My grandpa does the rubicon every year in a cj7 and just shakes his head at the new jeep name. It a far cry from what it used to be and now I would not even call it a 4x4, kinda like the new hummers just glorified chevy trucks/ double the price tag. I think that the chance should be givin but watching the long term would be first and fore most. You just wont see me jumping in line to sacrafice my hard earned money to iron out the kinks of yet another failing american auto company.

I have/had 2 Dodges and they haven't been in the shop once.Mind you I don't keep my cars past 80,000 kms so I don't really know with what parts are breaking down.Dodge has come along way in the last few years.More then what Ford or GM has done. One of my friends has the new Rubicon Jeep and it goes through pretty much anything.As for the new Hummer it's a tank I don't think anything will stop it offroad. But is a glorified Chevy truck but works much better.

People that buy the SRT's don't give a **** about gas mileage.There sales are not low either. The HEMI has been the best thing that has happened for Dodge in awhile.

YES, the sale is low.

It is only targetting a really little SRT fans, even Chrysler said it. A little bit like the Type-R of Honda, except Type-R is lovedd in Japan, Euro and now start to be known in america. While no place else than america appreciates SRTs.

Low as in they are Limited production..You can't get one on a dealers lot and if there is there is a Mark Up on it.

 
Rep Power: 360

yeah, and 99% of people sporting a type-R badge are ignorant a$sholes. just like 99% of people with an srt badge are the same

you all our counting the US brands as being dead all ready but I think its far to early to tell. my reasons are that the japanese don't know how to build good work trucks, which is the number one selling vehicle in the US. the other reason is that GM right now is the leading manufacturer in china, which is the speculated to become the largest auto market in the world withing the next 10-20 years. from what I have read on edmunds.com and autoweek.com it seems that the japanese brands are not having much if any success yet in china do to the chinese still being upset at japan for what they did during WWII.

you are 100% correct. i know several fleet managers and sales man for dodge and also a previous dealership owner. and they are in limited production and i have seen the mark up on just the magnum srt8 to $70k

Car manufacturers have been marketing their cars based on horsepower alone for years, and more horsepower means higher gas consumption, be it by higher displacement engines or forced induction.

A new wave of electric engines is taking over the market. Power will become cheap for both manufacturers and users. We WILL see 500lb/ft electric civics, and that power will be available linearly, alongside 500lb/ft ferraris.

I have no idea how they're going to market their cars then anymore, since power will be common. THen the quality of our assembly lines should exceed that of manual labor significantly. Will the auto industry overcome itself?
