I love those cars. There's one exactly like that in my neighborhood...same color. Pisses me off too because now I'll have to get a different color or get a 300 SRT8 instead.

Hell yes! Video is a must, I have a pretty decent Sony digital camcorder, I'm sure you have something too.

This is my first DCX, and first Mopar EVER!! So far I'm really liking the car, but want to get rid of this crappy intrusive torque management / stability control system... It totally screws the fun factor when you want to get the car all out of shape and sideways

My buddy Todd did the brakes for all of the SRT vehicles. I've been trying to get his job for the last year and a half but they're not hiring.

He's taken me for rides in the 300C SRT about 6 months before it hit dealer lots, an '06 Viper with a development brake system on it, and recently an SRT Jeep. That 6.1 Hemi is a helluva motor and the Charger SRT looks mean as hell in black.
