Went to Philly auto show today. I was really disappointed with Chrysler/Mopar. They had nothing new to show. only SRT-8 they had was the Challenger. When I asked one of the Chrysler/Jeep reps about SRT-8 GC she told me they did not make them in 2010. I told her that that is funny I have one. she looked at me like I was crazy. i had to reassure her that I really had a 2010. She also told me that they are redoing the 2011 again and that is why they did not have that on display. She says the one we all seen is not going to be the model released after all. I don't know how credible she is after the first response from her about the 2010.

One thing that did appeal to me though is the new Camaro ZL575. They are only building 500. They come with supercharger and run 11.6 1/4 with 6 lbs boost. I want one. This will be really hard to convince my wife. Will need to trade in Charger. She is not liking that Idea. We'll have to see what happens.

Wow. Sounds like a total moron. I'm sure this is exactly the type of rep that DCX wants promoting their vehicles! Did they at least have the 2011 Grand Cherokee?

I remember being equally un-impressed with DCX at last year's Washington Auto Show. It's funny to see those reps squirm when they realize you know more about their product than they do! :worried:

No to the 2011. She said they were going to redue it again before it is released. Who knows.

Yeah she fits that description. She wasn't even one of the models.
