[QUOTE="PorkchopExpress, post: 11169219, member: 126680"] I owned a 2010 Dodge Challenger SRT8 (auto) before trading it in for my 2011 GT500. I loved the Challenger, and would have both if I could afford it. Getting in the car and looking down the hood felt like being behind the wheel of my 1970 buick skylark again. Starting it up, it just sounded angry. And while it's completely subjective, I will say that I did prefer the sound of my Dodge to my GT500. You're not just buying performance when you're buying a Challenger, you're buying an image... I would even say you're buying the closest thing to a "Modern Muscle car" as you can get. That being said, I traded mine in because I wanted a pure bad a$$ street machine, and it was cheaper (not to mention safer with the warranty) to do it by getting a GT500 rather than strapping on a TVS2300 blower on a non-forged motor. My brother still has his 2010 Challenger SRT8 (manual), and went with a Magna TVS2300(8lbs), LT headers, Cam, and a fairly mild tune (for the build). My stock GT-500 *may* take him if I can hook up, but it's still ridiculously fast. Drive what you want, life would be boring if we all drove the same thing. BTW, I suggest going to an SRT track experience if you can. You can find the vouchers for pretty cheap (around $200) and you get a full day of track time (I did Vegas speedway). Autocross, head to head, and hotlaps with their pros (who would make you re-think your "auto" insults). I was impressed by the capability of the dodges. [/QUOTE]
