Jim, there are some OZ Mags which also had roadtests. I still have the Wheels mag and will let you know the month where the SRT8 test appeared. When I get home that is.

Here are some links to Aussie SRT8 articles and discussions:

This is an enjoyable Feb 2005 MPH magazine comparison of the Bentley Arnage and SRT8.

I checked my cupboard for the Wheels magazine which had the comparison roadtest of the SRT8, Ford XR and the Senator. It was May 2006 and has the three cars on the front cover.

Car and Driver had a nice review of the 300C SRT8. I believe it was their June 2005 issue. I would recommend just use google to search for 300C SRT8 comparison and you will find tons of reviews.
