How much faster...

[phillips2024]

so ive been readin some of the posts about you srt8 guys racin some other cars and it got me thinkin about how my car would do...the 5.7L C... so here is my question...how much faster is the srt8 than the 5.7C?

from what i read the srt-8 is almost 2sec quicker to 60mph. but i'm not too sure.

About a second to 60, high 5s for the 5.7, high 4s for the SRT.

About 1-1.2 or 1.3 seconds faster in the 1/4 mile (each 10th of a second is about a carlength)

This month is the best time for you to find out how much faster the SRT is than the C. Go up the your local Chrysler dealer (employee pricing) and dump your C and upgrade to the Dark Side, that is the SRT. One mash of the gas pedal and you can send me a thank you note later.

The numbers don't do it justice. Once you feel the difference you will understand. Come... join us. We are the brotherhood of eights. We will watch over you as you will watch over us. You can never go back, you will never want to go back.

Seriously though, if you truly can't afford one don't even test drive one. You will sell your soul to own one once you experience it.

It's not just the speed. The whole feel of the car as you drive it... it conveys a sense of " ". Not even sure their is a word that fits. Can someone else help. Maybe someone with fancy book lernin'.

The word "panache" comes to mind... but my book lernin' is still a work in progress.

My wife had a good descriptor... she said when I punched the SRT, she felt it in her stomach... something she's never felt before in a car.

Well then Mr. Happy did you finally get the SRT then today? Or am I missing something by your profile?

hahha well my plan right now is in two years i will trade in my C and go for the srt8. i will be out of college by then and it will be a lil easier for me to grab some better cars. but who know, by then there will be some new stuff out! so we will see

Oh how I wish... going tomorrow to look at one on the lot, then it's time to make some more rather determined phone calls to get certain people to move and to get me an SRT in my garage!
