Kudos to the SRT folks for seeking out the views of their product owners and potential owners. It's comforting to know they're serious about improving the product.

I did say that i would like paddle shifts, but despite the fact that it probably isnt the ideal driving situation, generally my hand is at the top of the wheel, while my right hand is on the stick. There are very few times when i have my hands at the positions where paddles would be. However a car with paddles that could also be shifted using the stick would be perfect. Im sure this exists, the cars that have it just slip my mind right now.

displays

Anyone seen the new Skyline aka GTR?

I would like a display like that one. For those wh haven't seen it, it has many different screens and can track almost any aspect mentioned in this survey.

The data is already being generated and used by the vehicle, all we're asking for is a display of it to see!

Re: our transmission's characteristics, I reset my adaptives almost every week for my Sunday AM play time. These cars need to have a 3 or 4 position switch a la Ferrari that changes everything possible with just a click.

This is a dangerous assumption. My computer geek tells me that it will leave a footprint that is traceable, they just aren't likely to look for it. May not even have that capability in their dealership.

Rest assured, if they want to check for it, they can. And then you can get a lawyer and spend years and $$$$$ trying to prove them wrong, let me know how it goes.

Anyone using the Predator should assume the responsibility and not try to "put one over" on the Manufacturer. The costs of these deceptions are passed on to all of us!

Since SRT group wants some feed back, I thought I would throw in another .02.

It would be great if they offered at least one special color that is exclusive to the 300C SRT8. This has been done for Dodge Chargers, so why not also offer at least one special color for the 300C SRT8? So far, the regular 300C is available in all of the colors the SRT8 is available in. And there is a much wider color selection for the regular 300C. Come on Chrysler, make a special cool color for the 300C SRT8. I'm sure it will sell!

I wrote in a PCM reset mode, so I don't have to pull the Fuse. Would be nice to get that reset as someone comes up beside me and wants to play. Hit the reset and GO FOR BROKE.

I checked all display options. Also I said that I'd like to have paddle hold option and have an option in the menu to choose whether to use Paddle hold or auto upshift.

I test drove a number of vehicles with paddle shifting and have to say most often the paddle shifting car companies offer is only a gimmick: they are still sequential, their reaction times are the same, etc. And most instances I found the paddles difficult to operate when turning the wheel.

IMO, more important than moving the shifter from the console to the steering column is to improve the reaction time of the transmission.
