I drove an SRT-8 and loved it. Sure, it isn't going to win in a slalom, but it will handle even aggressive street driving just fine. The power is there when you want it, it rides really nicely, it is comfortable. The interior is fine and nothing a couple grand to an upholstery shop can't fix (leather wrap the dash and console and door trim). Save for that, honestly, I liked it more than my 650.

Yah the challenger is amazing im honestly considering trading in my Impala SS which is my baby but a brand new car with lifetime power train warranty is great but im having a hard time deciding whether to get the R/T or srt-8 because i saw on the dodge website that the srt-8 only takes premium and when the gas shoots up again ima be boned lol

Just a side note- the lifetime drivetrain does not apply to any Srt motor. I bought my MSrt-8 when premium was $3.50- and as I was signing the papers the salesman goes "You know this takes premium only." I just laughed as I signed the papers.

Wow well that kinda makes the decision a little easier i just might as well go with the R/T.
but the power in the srt-8 makes hard still lol

I think it looks too big and goofy in person... and the interior is so bland. Camaro is so much nicer. Just my opinion though.

right now, the difference between regular and premium is like 10 cents per gallon... here anyways.
