Moving to a 392 made the Challenger competitive performance-wise with the SS/5.0 but not really faster than either. It's just too bad the 392 is a $50,000 car OTD.

Lets think about that $50,000.00 price tag. If you shop as I have with options such as nav/sound/auto/wheels/and powered sunroof they can be had for $47,500.00. Now compare this to a fully loaded 2SS which still doesn't have the navigation and much less hp and tq is what $42,000.00 out the door? With the SRT you are getting a limited edition top of the line vehicle for not that more in price.
