It looks great with all the new stuff BUTim guessing with all the options the msrp will be close to 70,000 and even with a great deal i cant afford that so i probably would have to get a charger or cuda srt8.
They are LEDs but use a diffused approach instead seeing the individual LEDs.
I've been hearing performance is only slightly better. My guess is 0-60 may improve 0.2 if that. I'm guessing 1/4 times will still be similar. I guess we wait and see what the magazines say, and real world numbers.
Its supposed to be much quicker with much faster shifts than the 2012. Just watched the reveal with Ralph Gilles and he kept mentioning the fact that it has "lightning quick" shifts and downshifts. He made a point to not mention 0-60 times either saying that the media always gets a better time than they put out anyway. Definitely looks great inside and out! Have to start filling the piggy bank!
I wouldn't say screwed them. SRT is evolving as a brand. They are giving buyers options! Colors, interiors, wheels, etc... Something new is always coming out. So you can't always own the best all the time lol. I'm still happy and like my 12. The 14s look great. I like the progress SRT is making, and look forward to the future. Forced induction! Again , another option for owners to choose.
IMO, everything looks great....except the wheels. The wheels look straight off a mid priced Dodge truck. No more HP either. I guess they plan on offering an ACR version later on that is force fed.
one of the things i loved about the Alpine was they only made 400 of them. I paid extra for a limited edition and ive had it for 35 days and now its not that limited anymore.
Maybe its just me, but do the new Chero's look too much like the SRT's to you guys as well? Yeah, I know, even most women can pick out the small tires and wheels, lack of big brakes etc., but they're very, very close IMO.
Just got a call today from my dealer to say my order when it arrives in April / may this year will be the new 2014 spec!!! Awesome. And at the same price. Super stoked.
Well it is in south Africa so who knows, but I must say I didn't think the srt8 jeep needed any work on the exterior, I actually prefer the 2012 spec look, just liked the idea of launch control, new 8 speed and new interior finishes as I was ordering new. Oh and the original spider monkey rims are awesome, I'm keeping those, don't like the new ones. Very old school.
The cars should be seeing the supercharger in the coming months. Still no word on when the Jeep gets the s/c love. But sounds like it will get it eventually.
Ok dealer error now I'm getting the old spec 2012 srt8. Really sux. I gotta say this dealer is full of sh*t. I asked them so many times if the facelift was coming. They kept on saying no.
Now they have my deposit and are not coming to the party.
