You say 09 models should be compared to 09 models, so where is the sub-50K GM built, 4 door performance sedan, with a six speed with 400 rwhp? Oh yeah....there is no such thing....oops.
so then do we throw anything over the price of the new zr1 under the bus in the same manner, simply because a mercedes,aui,lambo, ferrari, porsche etc etc which competes equally with the zr1.....but costs twice (or more) as much?????

And the hemi dont, wont and cant do that. Lets not even mention the twisties comparison as even a stock 1g V would tear up even that fully built 11 second srt8.
As mike said, you cant compare the 09v to an 09 SRT8. Our car was not built for the twisties, you definitely would have us there.

Everyone keeps talking about killing an srt8 from a roll, you guys do understand that we have a 3.06 rear right? We prefer racing from a roll, hell these cars stock will run 176mph. Its the cherokee that likes racing from a dead stop, but from a roll, your going to have your hands full with an equally modded srt8. Look at my best time, 11.08@122mph. With that much mph, I should be in the 10.7 range, it just shows you that these cars are flying at the top end of the track. I would love to race a 500rwhp V from a roll on the interestate to see how they compare.

IN THE TWISTIES.........09 stock V > stock 04 V > your 11 second 09 srt8

thats something to be said in itself. Im glad you can stomp the gas in your automatic and run consistent straight line times.....zero skill IMO

SO, if you would pull up next to Andy at the light and saw he had an automatic, would you have an excuse as to why you were about to get your *** handed to you?

As I said, our 300 isnt a twisties racer. You want to race a car in the twisties, I will find you an SRT8 to race. or how about a 5.7 magnum?

Ok, Stock for stock we have video after video after video of the V's putting it down on the srt's from a roll and any other mph that they race from! You can spend all day shaking your stick on a V forum but until you come with the vids it is ALL pointless!!! Again I am waiting for Jay to race his wifes 300!!! I think that will be a great vid to watch! And why dont you set up a race with 1 of the new turbo V's against your SRT's??? That my friend would be a GREAT race to watch!!!! VIDS PLEASE!!!!

Take it easy man, all in good fun, geez.

You quoted the pics. You did not mention that you could not see them, so how would I know?

There are wheelie bars on the car, so it would seem obvious it is RWD, but if you could not see them, I can understand.

Have a better day....
