I was wondering the same thing, but I'd imagine the part will still fit for aftermarket purposes.

I'm not that familiar with the SRT Design package, but the articles I've read said it's an appearance package. How does that help your handing?

It is more than interior looks. Performance suspension, lower profile 20' wheels, and extra 10HP due to exhaust. I feel they are killing it as with more powerful 5.7 the features will put it too close to the real SRT8. (Only 40 HP less on power)

The 30hp (9%) increase is nice, but the 8tq (2%) increase is a disappointment.

Any body changes on the 300C besides losing the antenna. Do all the models still have the built in sort of spoiler?

Hi, newbee poster here, so please forgive me... It appears from the previous posts, SRT Design is gone in '09. Like Ricardo, I believe it is a shame, since the package was tailored to those wanting SRT8 elements without the premium gas requirement, ability to get the lifetime warranty, and MDS. So, is it really and truly confirmed no SRT Design (aka SD in other posts) is out or was that speculation?

The SRTD would be a bit redundant if they made the heritage more like the SRTD is now.

I always thought the heritage was a bit silly, if you read any articles about the original 300s, they were sporty cars, the vast amount of wood never really fit with the theme. Rather, the original 300s had tons of chrome, and quirky plastic accents (hey that's what the tortoise shell is!)

If you ask me the 'heritage' edition should be the SRT8
