Yes, if ou want a base stripper, the SRT isn't for you, but if you want features and luxury, it's SRT all the way.As for the GT500 and ZL1, you are comparing 50k cars to a 42k car, so it kinda shows you are making a slightly hipocritical point.
Yes, the SRT8 is slotted in-between the SS and the ZL1/GT500 in price. It will be a tad faster than the SS or 5.0, and have more everyday comfort than either. It is more expensive for the same reason that an E-Class is more expensive than a C-Class.
