Chargers rock. Mine has been super fantastic so far. No barn burner but I'm expecting the fat pig to run low 14s or possibly break into the 13s... we'll find out next month.
Best of all, it can deliver 27+ mpg on a commute consisting mostly of highway, depending on speeds. Not enough to dethrone my WS6 (which delivered solid 30-33 mpg US results on a road trip I took in 2001 down to Chattanooga and back, running steady 65-67 mph) but considering the weight and the aerodynamics, it's a nice chunk of engineering.

I think the Charger SRT-8 is the baddest looking muscle car since the Firebird WS6. The Mustang GT500 KR will probably take the title when it's released, then the Camaro or Challenger.
Honestly, I prefer the Mopar's SRT-8 trio to the current CTS-V. Things should get very interesting when the G8 and G8 GXP are unleashed.
It's a good time to be alive.
