Re: '09 Challenger SRT8 Pistol Grip 6 Speed Review
I've seen the silver prototype camaro in person, and I stopped by the local dodge dealer this weekend to check out a few R/T's they had on the lot. The challenger does look better to me. I asked about the price on the challenger, and he said a little over 40!!! I was like do you think I'm an idiot? Thats SRT8 money for a regular R/T. I told them I was interested in a white R/T 6 speed, but not for what they wanted for it.

Re: '09 Challenger SRT8 Pistol Grip 6 Speed Review
Those are 2 nice rides.
 Have you taken the T/A to the track? Kurt

Here is my Son's 09 R/T Challenger Very Happy with the performance 13.50 -- 1/4 mile  [/ QUOTE ] I was just going to respond that I have been to the track on a grudge night and was paired up with a SRT8 Magnum 2 years ago. When the tree dropped, the BS stopped and I was the first at the finish line. Of course that was also the personal best that the car has run...13.26. The Hemi was coming on strong and had a trap of 109 mph!!! Yes, I would like to have one of those sitting in my garage with keys in my hand. No, I would not pay $40K plus. I will go out and find 2 Oldsmobiles and really tick my wife off for that kind of money!!!!

NO grudge match yet  but the T/A does walk away from that HEMI [/ QUOTE ]  the LS1. Its unreal how they respond to a good set of heads and a bigger cam. My friends 02 T/A just got some more work done to it at Vengeance Racing in ATL. 451 rwhp with a 228/230 cam, fast intake, full exhaust, and a set of TEA heads. This was done though a 3800 converter, built trans and a 12 bolt with 4.11 gears. Car ran a 11.29 @ 119 while toting the left front.

Re: '09 Challenger SRT8 Pistol Grip 6 Speed Review
Wow, I saw a 2009 white R/T Challenger with a black leather roof and 5 spoke wheels (20"), and it looked better than any one I have seen yet.
The black leather roof just set it off like it was 1970 again. Got a pic with my phone, will try to post.

Re: '09 Challenger SRT8 Pistol Grip 6 Speed Review
the roof is not leather. Its vinyl.
