I really like the Crossfire...seriously. It's different looking and I guess it's why I like it so much. Sat and drove one while deciding on which two seater to buy, it was a pretty nice ride. Some say it looks like a dog taking a shiat, well aren't they observant and stupid. I can say a lot of things about a lot of cars, LOL.

My only beef with the SRT Crossfire is it cost too damn much money for what you get. You can buy a 06 Vette for that much... ridiculous! I guess if you want a pre- packaged Crossfire with "some" power and a warranty each to his own. If it were up to me, I would buy a Crossfire for 28k and sink 12k into it and still come out ahead on $$$ and power. But that's just me...

The SRT will spank the Z in a straight line most definitely... Sorry... almost forgot to give my .02cents, LOL!

Plus, the SRT6 only comes as an automatic... therefore it's definitely not a sports car... like SOME Z's...

I wouldnt call myself a spoiled brat, since i plan on going to med school in 4 years, and i will give back to my parents (buyin them a mercedes and a little house). But the Srt for me wasnt 50 grand. We got it for a a hellll of a bargain at 32g. 35 with tax, tags etc.

have u guys ever thought about getting a used viper? I mean u can get 95's for bout 35g. I think the first gen vipers had the best styling. It looked so different. Ive thought about it alot. The only prob, would be the downgrade on features.

+1 ^. Yeah with a few bolt ons a Z can also run 4.9 seconds to 60 easily. The fastest I have done is 4.7. But thats if the SRT6 is stock. Also once the twisties come the SRT6 will just be seeing the Z's tail lights the whole time.

The Srt-6 runs low to mids 13's depends on driver, The Z BAIR stock runs anywhere from mid to high 13's again depends on driver. So I would say a Srt-6 would win this one but not by much... slap an intate and exhaust and the Z will beat it!

The SRT6 would definitely beat the Z in the straights, but the Z would out-handle the Chrysler easily.

Personally I think the SRT looks good in the front but the back is ugly. Looks like Chrysler had their budget cut halfway through development and just chopped off the rear of the car...

I think all around the Z is a better performing vehicle at a better value...

If SRT6 is an auto, why does it matter who is driving it? The driver's weight?

I am raising the flag, the invoice is $42K and thats the coupe. MSRP is $45K.

Ain't no way, you paid $32K, thats 10K off with 700 miles, no way for an SRT, NO WAY!

You probably have the regular Crossfire!
