[QUOTE="chris mac, post: 11624816, member: 13989"] not sure if you're wanting a brand new one or the older body style, but i got my wife an 06 GC SRT8 a couple years ago. it's her daily driver and besides the gas mileage, she's only had a couple gripes about it. the factory Brembo brake pads squealed a little and made quite a bit of dust so i swapped them out for some Wagner Thermoquiet pads. they don't stop like the Brembos but she ain't racing it so they're fine. second gripe was the rear Bilstein shocks were kinda weak and would bottom out over bumps when you had passengers in the back. i put some adjustable QA1's on the rear and problem solved! as for interior room, i'm 6' 4" and when i'm driving with someone sitting behind me i have to move the seat forward a little but not enough to make it uncomfortable. the wife's 5' 2" so that's not an issue for her! overall, the ride is good and comfortable and there doesn't seem to be too many quality issues with it. she's been looking at the new body style GC SRT8s and wanting to get into one of those, but i ain't ready to shell out that much cash so she's gonna have to stick it out in the 06 for now! good luck [/QUOTE]
