My New Car. YO DOOM :)

[breeze]

281+111= ? 392 :D

Today I bought a fully loaded (MSRP 53,440) 2012 SRT8 392 Yellow Jacket for.......39,102 out of a 42k loan thru my credit union with a 3.9% rate. Rest of the loan dealer squeezed tags, tilte etc out off it. Dealer basically handed me the car!

Getting insurance squared away so I will be picking the car up later today or tomorrow and show pics. :D

if 392 and 281 were side by side 281 would actually look slightly bigger.

When are you taking it to the track!? :D

[prchrman]

nice ride, does it out weigh the MM?

[ctrlraven]

nice ride, does it out weigh the MM?
Curb weight is 4160. I'm sure with fluids and driver the weight is pretty close.

Other info/specs


The Yellow Jacket stems from the new-for-2012 SRT8 392, which replaces the 6.1-liter V-8 SRT8 for 2012. It is powered by a 6.4-liter Hemi V-8 engine providing 470 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque. That’s 45 more horsepower and 50 more lb-ft of torque compared to the outgoing model and equates to a zero-to-60-mph time in the high four-second range and a quarter-mile time in the mid-to-high 12s. Other interesting performance statistics include a 0–100–0-mph time in the low 15s and a top speed of 182 mph with the manual transmission. The new engine loses a couple miles per gallon in the city and probably won’t make up for it with its small gains on the highway (comparisons vary by transmission).

The Yellow Jacket also features the two-mode adaptive damping suspension system that is an option on the 392. Dodge says the adaptive suspension on the Challenger SRT8 392 results in .90g capabilities on the skid pad. The system offers a Sport setting and an Automatic mode. In addition to the new adaptive suspension, the SRT8 392 features 14.2-inch front and 13.8-inch rear vented brake rotors with four-piston Brembo fixed calipers that can drag the car to a halt from 60 mph in as little as 117 feet.

The 392 package also contains a revised front fascia with large front chin spoiler, body-colored rear decklid spoiler, and “392 HEMI” badges. Inside, the SRT-exclusive Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) with performance pages gives instant feedback on 0–60-mph acceleration, 60–0-mph braking, G-forces, and one-eighth-mile and quarter-mile times.

Congrats breeze and enjoy!

Very nice car!

on a side note, where does the Yellow Jacket nomenclature come from? I am not too versed on Mopar history but I am guessing some sort of play of the SuperBee? Has Yellow Jacket been used in the past on some of Chrysler's muscle cars or is this brand new?
