Test drive a 2014 SS finally last week. Man that car is amazing all around.

Now I have a full size sedan that can destroy even a 2016 CTS-V (in a straight line)

How much did the whipple upgrade run you all together?

I was the test vehicle for the SS system, so my price was very low.

I decided with the SS. I was close to getting a srt8 but the dealership that had it (clay cooley irving) played games so I waited until I found a used SS in my price range and I couldn't be more happy. I used to balk and handling snobs until I tested the srt8 and the SS. Its amazing feeling being able to hang corners and the newer tech in the SS. Thanks everyone for you input

Congrats! Post pics.

I vote Charger. I own one so Im kinda biased. And although mine is a V6, I have spent plenty of time in the Scat Pack. You will not be disappointed.

Yeah I couldn't find a scat pack challenger within my price range used. I think my next car after the SS if GM doesn't have a replacement would be a 300 srt if they ever bring it to the US. I feel like the SS has the luxury that a 300srt has and I like that.

Dodge apparently makes cars with cardboard and duct tape. Her 2012 Grand Caravan has been a pos since new. If it wasn't for the Sto N Go, we'd buy a real vehicle. I want to shoot it with the 12 gauge out of principle.

My 2012 Challenger started falling apart after 50k miles. All sorts of electronic problems.

Good choice, congrats ... I love driving mine more than my Camaro.

All jokes aside, the folks who do own these things love them. I'm thinking about picking one up in a few years.

Problem with these are they are all High Mileage, have Holes in the Roof for the Police lights, have a Police Interior (Rubber & Plastic everywhere so you can hose out the Puke) and the Selling prices are higher than a G8

You have to find the right ones. There are a few on Autotrader right now that are decent.
