Very nice...looks like they added the Daytona styled wheels (black painted inserts between the spokes)or it might have been avail in an option package in '06 :shruggy:


This one has the Road and Track option that gave the blacked out wheels and nicer interior over and above the standard R/T. My wife wanted to buy a standard black R/T back in '06 that a local dealer had but, after I saw the Daytona and Road and Track options, I wouldn't buy it.

I almost had her convinced to buy a used SRT8 but it didn't have adjusted pedals and that is a must for her anymore.

I didn't know this until today!! I thought Road & Track WAS the R/T until a buddy of mine told me it's not.. That the Road & Track had different wheels & interior..

Now confirm this. He thought it had something done to the suspension and an additional 20HP? He said it was rated at 360??

The adjustable pedals are cool!!

After driving this for a few days I can say that I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this car. It's by far the most comfortable car I've ever driven.. And smooth? WOW!!! This car's a keeper!!!!

Hey guys, how can I kill the buzzer if I don't have my seatbelt on?? (and no, PUTTING IT ON isn't what I mean  :lol: )

Congrats on joining the dark side :coolgleamA:.. We are really enjoying ours. We took it to our local drags 2 weeks ago and the owner of the strip was by the gate as we entered and he said you can park right here if you want. the girl that was working the gate said " I have been sending them all on down" he said it'll be alright... he moved some cones and  thats where we parked..   right beside the staging lanes! we sat with the car! I do not think we could have got a better spot!  Then he set the cones back!.. Wow,, as they say were lovin it!..YES  there is an R/T package for trim and another for performance. If it has the large R/T on the grill it has the performance package.. Here is a link to some tips & tricks for the new Charger..

Thanks guys!! Just washed her again (man I forgot how much fun Black was to keep clean!!)

Probably ordering up the SRT grille kit, like this one. Next would be the Shaker hood. I LOVE the Shaker on these cars..

Looks nice Jeff.    :cheers:   :scratchchin:   Now you need another truck to tow the trailer for the General Lee and the BK custom work.    ;)   Or, put a hitch on the Corvette or new Charger.   :icon_smile_big:

I vote for the Vette.  :2thumbs: It makes a pretty good snow plow as well.  :yesnod:

Nice Charger! Have to agree with another comment that someone made, the haters of the new ones haven't driven one yet. I have an 07 and I wouldn't trade it for anything but another new charger.  :2thumbs:

 Well IMO i've driven a white RT and an SRT and a GC SRT and the 300 Touring (v-6) and the 300 was the one i liked best,.. still haven't driven a chally yet... but what do I know?..  :shruggy: I prefer my '99 M by far.

jb666

No one's right or wrong here, it's all about personal preference.. I have a buddy who's got a killer Z06 yet he LOVES driving his 2000 Grand Prix. Go figure....
