I think if I were Chrysler, I'd create a new Challenger model slotted in between the R/T and the SRT8 that has the 6.1 engine and the Brembos but fewer bells & whistles like leather interior, connectivity, 13-speaker stereo, 20" forged wheels, etc.

Basically they would have an SRT8 F package and an SRT8 J package just like the R/T has. If they could get the SRT8 F package MSRP down to $35-36k before sales/gas guzzler tax, tags, etc. it could be competitive with the Camaro & Mustang GT.
