Re: any SRT8 owners here?
Probably not the same Hemi (6.1 liter) that's in the SRT8 though, is it?

He loves it. Even the metrage isn't as bad as he was expecting. He is in
the industry, and ordered it in a slightly custom configuration at the
2005 Sema Las Vegas show.
Rides like a limo, goes like a bat outta hell, but rather quiet running
for his tastes, so it will likely get a MagnaFlow treatment.
Very heavy car -- @ ~4400 lbs or so -- but very agile and certainly
doesn't move like one. It's his first Mopar, although his business partner
is a lifelong Mopar aficionado, and now he 'understands why.'

Re: any SRT8 owners here?
Pretty much describes the way I feel about the Charger SRT8 I bought a week
ago. But I wouldn't call mine "quiet". When I get into it, it sounds like a
race car. The exhaust is definetly noiser than other Chargers and there's a
ton of growl coming from the intake. (I'm not complaining. I love it!) Rides
and handles beautifully but the suspension sounds a litttle noisy when you
go over tar strips or other small bumps in the road. I got used to that in a
hurry.
