    "WOW, A True Tribute to the Muscle Car Era"

    by climberccm on July 8, 2009

    Pros: Well balanced, comfortable, looks and sounds great.

    Cons: If you are worried about gas mileage this is not the car for you.

    Summary: Owned it for a month. It is a joy to drive and begs to be driven fast. The car maneuvers very well for a vehicle weighing in at 4125 lbs. Acceleration is quick at any speed. Brembro brakes stops this monster quickly, smoothly and effectively. Despite CNET review of the interior, I find it athestically pleasing and have heard none of the rattling when playing the stereo or DVD (Kids tested it with Hip Hop). Sound quality of the system is excellent. Agree that not having voice control on the steering wheel is a bit of pain, but you really should be paying attention to your driving.
    Speaking of driving, the car at highway speed is fairly quiet until you punch the gas pedal then you can hear the throaty roar of 425 horses being unleashed. In terms of looks the car definitely pays tribute to the 1970 era Challengers. It gets stares, thumbs ups, and drooling glances from men and women alike.
    Yes the GT500 and Camaro are faster and perhaps more nimble but the SRT8 provides the driver with a more refined driving experience.
