$2.43 a gallon for gas?!?!?! I got the 3.5 L. It has a lot more pick-up then my last V6!

2005_44Magnum · 03-11-2006, 09:54 PM

I test drove a 5.7 L, and the punk dealer told me it was the 3.5 L. I was HIGHLY impressed, until I jumped out of the car (it was like 2100, or 9 pm) and saw the HEMI. I opted for the gas milage though, stupid wife. lol. Anyway, I'm still enjoying the power upgrade from my Malibu Maxx, but I miss a lot of the extras, like having to turn on my lights! WHO HAS TIME TO DO THAT NOW-A-DAYS?

5.7! The 6.1 wasn't around when I bought mine so got the 5.7. Told the wife that after owning V6's, the next car has to be a V8!

old school joe , i had fast cars for years but i had to work on them to get them to go fast ,i am tired of breaking my hump , true the srt 8 is a gas guzzler but its worth it, i waited 6 months to get mine i new it was going to be kuick , but not that quick taking it home from the dealer i got on it and my hair whats left of it went straight up in the air ,and it has all the comfort and accessories as a real expensive car , getting 14 around town and 20 on the highways,

5.7 Here. When I bought mine the SRT8 was too new so I am very happy with it.

Well i decided to get the 2.7. I really wanted the 5.7 but was a little to much money. The 3.5 really wasnt impressive to me so i got the gas sipper and some 20s!

I just did the same but now Iam looking to improve the engine,what to do,air intake, turbo?

Well i don't have one yet, but I was going to go with the 6.1L, but I want AWD, so I'm going with the 5.7L. I kinda need the AWD for the snowy winters.

2.7 it was all i could afford for now, but i still like it. i would love more power, but from what i see theres not much i can do but to upgrade in the future, till then i am happy with what i have.

It was karma that I ended up with a Hemi. A year and a half ago I bought an SXT and had a bunch of trans probs with it. The RT we bought just recently was the brand new 06 sitting on the show room floor when I had them find the original SXT. Been lovin' it ever since.
