This article makes a good point although some facts are in error.
The 2008 Challenger SRT8 is a limited edition...Dealers ordered a bunch and some are still available, if you are willing to pay a premium.
Don't do it. The 2009 Challenger SRT8 goes into production in August and will be in dealerships this fall along with the V6-powered Challenger SE and the Challenger R/T, which will have the "little" 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 under the hood.
Another good point.
Sure, it's great being the first in your Mopar club to have an '08 SRT8, but any modifications will mar its limited-edition status and resale value.
But the '09 model is fair game.
