Good race man. I was wondering how long it would take to hear about a race with one of those. I would love to have one too. Does anyone know how fast they are in the 1/4

they run in the 14's

KCamaro

Mid low 14s with emphasis on the mid. They would be a great run for a stock pre 05 gt.

Lol, sure that was a thumbs up coming out the sunroof

I raced on also, they run strong up top.

ABout the same outcome, walked him in 3rd and put several on him before I shut down, ran like the 300Cs I have ran on the freeway. Chrysler did a good job.

a kid around here ran a freaking 13.8 in one with 500 miles on the motor last year when they first came out....he was mostly low 14s after that, but i haven't heard anything about that car in a while......i rode in that and drove a 300c at woodward last summer, they accelerate so smooth it's ridiculous......

Yea those srt-8 300 C's look real nice. I believe its going to be a 6.1 Liter engine though but yea its rated at 425 Flywheel HP. I dunno what the Cadillac CTSV is getting but if it isnt the 500 HP new Z06 engine then Chrysler is going to steal a lot of sales from GM. Cant beat a car that looks real nice, is fast as hell, and is priced 10,000+ dollars less than the CTSV.

-20K = GTO

the gto isn't a luxury sedan, it's a sports coupe.......

there's a dyno sheet floating around of a stock srt-8 6.1 hemi making 367 at the rear wheels, which is about 460 at the motor.....that's insane....

The car is worth a look at. AWD version as well right?

jdustu

iTrader: (2)

the magnum r/t and 300c can be awd, but not the srt-8s.........the jeep srt-8 will be awd though, which is how it's faster 0-60 but slower in the 1/4.....

Black02hawk

i couldnt beleive how fast it got up and went.....he got a jump on me but i didnt expect a fight...there nice cars...pimp+power..ya cant lose

Thos SRT8's are sweet as hell looking. I love that they have a real unique look too. And with those 20" wheels the car just looks badass yet classy at the same time, and with 425 hp, I'd love to have one.

The crossfire SRT6 is a damn sweet looking ride too.

True but but ive sat in a GTO and like someone else said its certainly not a luxury sedan, thats like saying a cobra or corvette is a luxury sedan. Im saying if your looking for a nice performance 4 door sedan the only really comparable car is the CTSV, which is price way over the SRT-8 300C.

Based on the interior, I'd personally classify the GTO as a luxury sports car

jdustu

you can personally classify it whatever you want, it won't turn a sports coupe into a sedan; the two cars being compared(the 300 srt-8 and cts-v)are in the same class and compete with each other, comparing the gto to them doesn't make any sense whatsoever from a price standpoint.......

Exactly, a sedan is 4 doors, so the GTO isnt in its class. Also, im not saying the GTO interior isnt nice, its very nice, but its not a sports luxury sedan because its a 2 door coupe.
