Mine is a black SRT8 with the 5.7 hemi and a 6 speed. It gets decent mileage as if I pay attention. I have my guy doing some work to it right now to boost the 370hp to around 500hp which is where I like to play.
I have gripes about this car. First and foremost is the over optioned interior, good greif it has more buttons and dials than my other 4 Challengers combined. I don't like it.
Secondly I could only get the upholstery in black leather. I am having it reskinned in red leather as I type. The red stripe kit it came with is only on the front and I wanted them to run down the sides like my others. That is being fixed now too.
Thirdly this car is smaller than I thought. Not as wide and it's harder to abuse than my others. This car is nice for Sunday drives and long road trips. It looks more or less like this one:

Beautiful car, Marshall. I'll have to meet you in Knoxville over at Dolly Partons place some weekend, then the two of us can pop over the the 'Dragon' and make a few runs on 129.
