All 3 of the SRT-8s are capable of mid to high 12s bone stock.

I have personally seen an SRT-8 Cherokee go 12.9 @ 10X (think it was 104) mph bone stock w/ the dealer plates still on it. It was actually trailored up to the track as well.

I would love to own any SRT-8 vehicle.....

In this particular test, the SRT Chrysler ran 60 in 4.8 and the quarter in 13.2. I think the Charger is a tad lighter than the C as well. (still a porker though!)

Hell yea that is, my school (Northwood Univ.) puts on an autoshow everyear and DaimlerChrysler sent down the entire SRT line with a Showcar and Prototype Technician. He said they underrated those engines by 45hp, theyre actually puttin down 470hp on a dyno. The JEEP was ******* fast. The Charger was incredible and even the SRT6 Crossfire was amazingly quick. I cant wait for next year because I'll be runnig the show and I'll be able to take one home for the nite,lol. They did a kick ass job. Id love to see the Trailblazer SS run it but I dont think it could shake a stick at the SRT8. I saw a Trailblazer SS today when I picked up my car from the dealer theyre pretty sweet looks wise though.

The difference between the Jeep and Chevy I think are similar to just about any SRT to SS comparison, in that the SRT is more about ***** to the walls performance with little regard to anything else, while the Chevy may not be as fast, but will genereally be more comfortable / practical as a daily driver.

Nothing against SRT at all, I just think they're aiming at a slightly different crowd than the SS vehicles are. Hence the reason I got a Cobalt. I like the Neon, but the Cobalt, inho, is quieter, and more comfortable to drive every day than the Neon. I want a quick car, but I don't need the fastest on my block.
