If I had the money I would consider one...

Sorry Andy, they tested Charger R/T, not SRT-8.

At least Pontiac knows how to get ride height and offset correct.

The simple truth is that when it comes to performance sedans, Ford looks as though it's standing still compared to GM right now.

You've got that right, I would love for Ford to have anything remotely similar to this. I see Ford ahead in trucks (Super duty awesome and new half ton coming), suv's, and the Mustang (I've got one of each of these), but sucking tailpipe on sedans and other vehicles.

Minor but important correction, it was the Aussies not Ponty that set this car's look.

Which honestly I applaud them for. While the Us all but abandoned the V8 RWD concept the Aussies, Holden and Ford AUS, stayed with it.
