Hell yeah...looks great, David...love the plate. I never understood why people don't at least get a specialty plate when they're into cars. $25 a year to set the car's look apart seems good to me.

Have you driven a GC SRT? If so, could you comment on how it was compared to your Durango?

At my son's school this morning, saw a mom getting out of a brand new White SRT. It had Black wheels (20-25 thin spokes), it had full blood red interior. Looked stunning. Really stood out amongst all the Lexus/Range Rover/Acuras.


Thanks

Holy crap.

NC is $55 for the initial plate and an extra $35-ish per year no matter the plate design or number of characters.

Only SUV I love is the CTS-V Wagon

What a sweet sweet machine...why will it list for so much more than the charger/challenger cats?

^ Because of the additional cost of AWD and less common parts shared across the Charger/Challenger LX/LC platform. And because they can ha ha.

Jeez...so it'll cost you a new accord to go from a charger hellcat to a jeep...just for AWD!!!? That's insane...

I remember when diablo was 125K...
and it's not to take away all the new things they are giving you with a car, and inflation, but pretty regular (in relation to a supercar of 20 years ago) cars are almost costing that much now!

Shoot, just the Jeep SRT is a beast. Saw a female driving one a couple months back.

There could only be 3 options.

Option 1: It's her husbands.

Option 2: Her husband bought it for her.

Option 3: She's a badass, but she was too old for me.

And because its still a steal compared to the competition.

A Jeep SRT is $60-70k where a X5M is $120K....with the Trackhawk being $100k (pre-mark ups) its still a performance bargain at 707HP.
