But every european magazine rates it far behind the likes of the RX8 and 350z.
I'll just say this(from driving it within a 1/2 hour of driving an RX-
, the steering has the same feedback as any other very overboosted car, its not direct, you cannot feel the road surface through the wheel but then you feel them bigtime in your ass, so basically the steering isnt as communicative as the crappy suspension. Body roll is a big problem also, it rolls the stock tires like crazy, and the last big problem I have with it is its brakes, I went from 80-0 3 times in succession and the 3rd time the car wouldnt even use the ABS and took forever to stop, My old ass S13 dosent fade that bad...
I dunno, I dont like the crossfire for a lot of reasons, so I wont be driving an SRT-6.
I think my solution to this problem is to get a lotus super 7 chassis and put a SRT-4 motor in it.. then i'd truely be happy..

On the other hand, it IS ugly as sin, so maybe $14,500 to drive the ugliest piece on the road isn't that bad.
