Since this is still stock my MM will eat this alive. The torque and engine managment on this won't let you do any fun stuff.

It's the 340hp, 5.7l HEMI.

I've already promised :rolleyes: that I won't start modding it, but it really needs a CAI, exhaust and a tune.

Pictures were taken in my son's driveway.

The Hemi is over rated.

Yes it is. I'm not really impressed. Too much computer control over everything, some good but mostly bad. Our engine is a HEMI also......

Put some locks on those wheels. The dealer next door lost 3 sets.

I like it. Nice wheels, nice color and those seats look good w/ the R/T stitched in. Congrats!

Good job on getting the pimped out version, it does look flashy. IMO the rims and the red R/T badge make the car. A guy at work has a regular R/T with none of those nice options.

Of course guys on a Ford board will poo-poo that car but the fact is it will eat the stock Marauders.

This HEMI is NOT a HEMI for sure...
The Original HEMI engines died in the late 60s and there is nothing that comes close today.

Sorry, I have a realistic appreciation for more than just Ford stuff.

Very nice! Like the wheels a lot. Almost as pretty as Marauder wheels.

I'm not too sure about that. After driving it a few days it's hard to get it to do "anything" with all the engine managment controls.

The Marauder wheels a definately better....

Interesting thing about those wheels. The window sticker says "Aluminium Chrome Clad Wheels. I didn't notice the "CLAD" part. The wheels are aluminium with plastic chrome cladding that is epoxied on... talk about cheap! You can even replace the cladding if it gets damaged, you have to replace the entire wheel.

Yeah all Chrysler stuff (including Jeep) are like this now. Very very weird. It's basically an aluminum wheel with a plastic hub cap on it. Is that how far we have come in technology, that we are using hub caps again?

Not even a wheel cover since you can't take it off w/o destroying it.

Well, I am sorry to see that you could not talk her into the second Marauder, but I guess this car will do. I like the MM better, but at least she agreed to the Hemi. My MM is still all stock. We can hit the track when next we meet. :beer:

I already have the SC bug. I wake up in the morning trying to figure out what I can sell to get enough cash so I can get a Trilogy. Until then I just keep going to work. :shake:
