One move SRT did was to put the 6-piston brembos, 20x9.5 rims and Pirelli tires as standard on both the Hellcat and 392 SRT; if not, I agree, the 392 SRT would not be as appealing.

Since they did that, the main difference between the two will just be the transmission (slightly beefed up for the Hellcat) engine, sway bars, rear differential, rear suspension, and some other drivetrain related parts, however, the rest of the parts will be the same.

If you opt for the 392 R/T (same engine as the 392 SRT), the main difference will be the technology creature comforts of the SRT are not standard on the R/T and the R/T doesn't have the adaptive suspension, has 20x9 rims, no Pirellis, and 4-piston brembos. About a $4-5,000 difference between R/T and SRT 392. About a $9,000-11,000 difference (depending on transmission) between 392 SRT and Hellcat. Also, the Hellcat doesn't get all of the technology features (adaptive cruise control etc) as the 392 SRT so that helps reduce the gap.
