I don't think that it looks too good with the black wheels and silver paint, but I would take 1 anyday.

No see the Horse Power Battle in the sedan market is really on foreign territory right now sadly but Ford I'm sure will be getting into it very shortly, some of the prototype and show cars they've been building are hinting at a big forthcoming I hope. obviously GM is out of the game when it comes to Sedan's now since they shrunk the Impala by almost half and put the drive wheels at the wrong end somehow. Shit will be going down once the new Mustang hits the streets, those GTO guys are gonna have something to worry about soon enough. I still don't get why they would call that the SRT-8 since that already exists in another car although it is the same car, The Magnum with the V8 is the SRT-8 and the regular is the SXT and the 300 is the V6 and the 300C is the V8.

Put on some decent rims and that would be an awesome looking car. I like the 6.1l Hemi though. That sounds like a winner.

nice, cant really go wrong with 425 hp. only i wonder how much it will cost. i kinda like the black rims IMO but they should definitly have a seprate rim option.

the New GTO is getting the LS2, i wouldnt exactly compare the regular GT mustang at a 23k base price to the 30k gto. Supposedly their will be a Judge version of the GTO out soon.

Actually ther Magnuim with the V8 is the RT, not SRT. The Charger based of the magnum will be the R/T.
