Default Grand SRT8

Hi,

i've dreamt of a grand srt8 since they have come out but now im seriously considering one

Does anyone have one on here? what do they think? Is it worth the extra coin over a limited?
Would it tow the tj if needed?

feedback would be appreciated.

Can't tow with an SRT8 as the exhaust exits in the centre of the rear bar
bear in mind it also has no low range

Hitch receiver is just above the exhaust.

I'm looking into this as well. I can't decide b/w the Chrysler 300C Touring SRT or the GC SRT.

Yeah I dunno 300c srt or Grand SRT

I'd like both but yeah, bit expensive. If I was gonna get a 300c I wouln't get a touring. Sedans are much better looking imo

I have watched so many videos on youtube of SRT8. They are fantastic. I'll get one one day.... After I buy my 8 Series BMW and WJ.



You should have no problems towing a TJ. SRT8 towing capacity is like 3500Kgs + It's the fastest accelerating Naturally aspirated SUV In the world... well apparently equal 1st with the ML 63 AMG
