    I currently own an SRT8, Charger, however (family, need the 4 doors). The Challenger remains closest to the original concept of a muscle car... its a muscle car, not a pony car. Not taking anything away from the others, but the Challenger is big and comfortable, in addition to being pretty fast and handling well for its size. It'll seat 5 comfortably too... and the trunk is BIG.

    Its a boat, no doubt, but so were the original musclecars (GTO, Charger, Roadrunner, etc.).

    The 2012/2013 SRT8 will feature a blower and 570HP... just so you can likely run mid-high 11's in the quarter mile, then take your family to dinner and stretch out for the long ride home. Plus, it simply looks killer.

    Yeah a cage 12 point, last time I ran it it went over 130mph (on street tires) and got kiked from the track, no parachute..It will run 10s on slicks all day.

    I painted it in my garage, built the motor, did everything on it, it has more stuff done to it than I can say...
