I sat in a Scat Pack Challenger at a local dealer (in the showroom), then test drove an SRT8 Challenger (for sh*ts and giggles). IMHO, the SP is the biggest bang for your buck. I'm not a Mopar guy, but if I'd be in the market for one, the SP would be the car to buy. The MSRP was ~$36k (white, 6 speed, etc.). The SRT8 I test drove was ~$46k (orange, 6 speed, etc.). You're getting the 6.4L HEMI for $10k less (minus a few extras that also come with the SRT8 that you don't get with the SP). To me, Dodge made one Hell of a machine at a very handsome price! FYI: The 6.4L pulled hard and for a big car, I was surprised at how nimble it actually was.
