It's SRT-8 and yeah...it's ridiculously fast for a full sized car. I had a guy in the 300C version fly by on the freeway the other day at about 120mph.

for those that never saw the concept, or don't remember it.

i saw it at the 99 auto show, and it was incredible looking. everyone was gathered around it and loved it. from what i've seen, what they actually produced doesn't get nearly the same reaction.

I'd rather have the 2007 Ford Shelby Cobra GT500 with 465HP!

That concept in 1999 looks like a Dodge Stratus. Not very cool. IMO, the Charger that's on the road looks a hell of a lot better. Plus, I think it might use Chrysler's DOD technology.
