Default SRT8 "Core" - Mega Bang for your Bucks!

I have recently Noticed on Carsales that the New 300 SRT8 "Core" Model is now hitting the Australia shore.

http://www.carsales.com.au/demo/deta...d&sort=default


The Core models goes with out some of the Features that people of this forum feel are unnecessary..

Feature is can see that not fitted are:

- No Leather
- No Blind spot monitoring
- No Adoptive Cruise Control
- No Heated or Cooled Seats
- No Heated or Cooled Cup holders
- No Harmon / Kardon Stereo (still the standard for the base models are 500 something watts.)


But you still get that 6.4 Hemi (347kw / 640Nm) and brembos.. The Drive away price is: $62k

That is brilliant bang for your buck, a car that does between 4.5-4.9 secs to 100km and mid to high 12's.

Would i buy this car... nope.. I personally feel that the 300 should be all about luxury which this one isn't. but if all you care about is performance, this could a car for you..
