Red calipers on SRT8?

I got my brochure for the 2008's and the SRT8 has red calipers. All the SRT's i've seen in the dealership showrooms are sliver. How do I go about getting red? Is it something that I need to request upon my special order from the dealership?

I would much rather have them red from the factory instead of painting them fyi..

Sure you aren't looking at a SRT design instead of SRT8?

Anyone else.. I haven't been to the dealership in a while to check on 08 brake systems.

I meant, when you look at the car at the dealership it might be a SRT Design, not an SRT8.... as far as I know, they 08 SRT8 Brembo's still come painted red...

I just took delivery of my Black 08' CSRT8 on Friday last week. It's got silver calipers.

300C SRT8's all have silver calipers. Red is for Chargers and Magnums only. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me...

Anyone with a silver Charger or Mag want to trade your red calipers for some nice silver ones????

The SRT engineers just answered the question it was only in the brocheur and the 300C SRT8 still gets silver.

Yeah, I asked the guy on there and He said that 300c SRT8 got the Charger SRT8 calipers... IDK why the hell, but I wonder if this is something I could request upon my special order?
