Got our hands on one of the new Chrysler 300 SRT8's.....straight from DETROIT. An editior for a auto magazine was shipped one of these straight from Chrylser to do a write up on it.
Called us up to get some dyno time for the article.


Underneath the blend of distinctly American and (borrowed) Bentley cues lies a surprising and immensely gratifying machine. At 4.5 seconds to 60 mph, and 13.0 seconds to the quarter mile, the Chrysler will show its taillights to a supercharged Audi A7 and a twin-turbo BMW 550i. While losing, they'll also be forced to listen to the fantastic bellow emerging from the single-cam 6.4-liter V-8 as it grunts outs 470 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. (Inexplicably, the 300 SRT8 is two-tenths slower in a straight line than the identically equipped Charger SRT8).

Damn, nice specs, what ruins it for me is a lot of 300s are used for a taxi cab.
