SVT could take the terminator engine and slap it in some vehicles for good measure

Those SRT's are some serious wheels. I wouldn't mind one for myself.

I've seen an SVT Adrenalin test mule. It was "neat" to say the least. No, I don't carry a camera, I just live/work near a couple of Ford plants. The thing sounded awesome, and looked just like the pics, 'cept this one was black. The guy driving said it still had a lot of suspension tuning work to be done, but he thought it was ready. SVT is apparently going all out. The guy didn't know how much it would be, he just said "I'd bet a lot".

Nope, that pic is what Tungsten should have looked like. Not what it does look like.

Mineral Gray was perfectly named.

That 300 SRT8 is one awesome car. If I wanted a four door, that would be the vehicle.

ya, there are sooo man SRT cars, like about half of DC's cars. All they need is an SRT8 Pacifica, how bout an SRT6 Wrangler, an SRT10 Voyager! Seriously though, here's my count:
Viper (does this count?)
Ram
300
Magnum
Charger
Crossfire
Neon/Caliber
Grand Cherokee
maybe the Dodge Nitro... anything else?

Personally, I think SVT should focus on a smaller number of better cars, and all of them with similar performance increases over the regular version. Like the Fusion better get about 300hp vs 220hp in the regular v6. Other than that, how bout bringing back the Focus, this time with about 250hp, and maybe, if they have to build an SUV, the Aviator/Edge?

Anybody remember that April Fools joke, the SVT TSUNAMI! SVT's take on the F350, very inappropriately timed, a couple weeks after the disaster around the indian ocean.

Jeff I was thinking this same thing about SRT.. they have WAY to many cars IMO
I think they should be a bit more choosy about what they give the SRT treatement.

Thanx for confirming Chris

An SVT Fusion, like Doug's awd F-Bomb, would be an amazing car to see! It would sell like hotcakes

By making so many SRT cars they can allow people to have a wider selection of vehicles and be able to get a high-performance version of whatever they want. (Haha, I sound like a commercial ). Plus they are using the Viper V10 in 4 vehicles and the Hemi V8 in another four, so it keeps development costs down.
