To begin with, atleast you know you need a SRT8. But it's all about your personal needs. Here's my opinion:
If you're
1- Single(SRT8 Charger)
2- 2 Children (SRT8 300)
3- 3+Children (SRT8 Cherokee)
4- ***/Female (VW Bug or Mazda Miata)
Good luck in your search.

I'm actually married with 4 children and purchased the 300 SRT8, and it is sometimes a pain in the butt not being able to fit everyone in it. I really only drive it when it's my wife and I, but nothing is cooler than being out on a night on the town and rollin up in it.

The Cherokee SRT8 is too small, it is AWD but it's considerably shorter than the 300c, a bit narrower too methinks so you actually have more passenger room in a 300c srt8

Charger SRT8s are nice, not as fancy as the 300Cs but meh, I'd love a super bee anyway.

300C SRT8s are the bomb :] That's what I'd go for o_O

Actually the exterior length and width differences between the vehicles is extremely close. As far as interior room the Jeep has more head room. The only advantage for the C is that it has quite a bit more leg room in the rear.


300C / Grand Cherokee

Overall length: 196.8 / 195.1

Overall width: 74.1 / 73.3

Overall height: 58.4 / 67.4

Head room, front: 38.7 / 39.7
Head room, rear: 38.0 / 39.3

Legroom, front: 41.8 / 41.7
Legroom, rear: 40.2 / 35.5

Shoulder room, front: 59.4 / 59.3
Shoulder room, rear: 57.7 / 58.5

I don't understand this high-performance, on-road-only SUV thing.

300c SRT8 all the way. Lighter and shorter and way better looking than the Charger by far.

Cherokee may be okay if you live in the snow belt and you get a set of winter tires. But insides way too tiny and plasticky.
