The cabin of the SRT8 is identical to that found in the regular 300C. Other than specific leather and satin silver accents, the real improvement comes in the form of heavily bolstered front buckets that firmly hold the average person in place. They are comfortable enough for a long trip all the while maintaining the occupants positions when apex hunting. Generally speaking, I found some assembly quality flaws with both interior and exterior panels. Otherwise, it is quite well built.

Competition?
None. Period. For a starting price of just under $50,000, no other car in this price range can come close the performance, street presence and versatility of the 300C SRT8. It can carry 5 adults with a fair amount of gear at 260 km/h or it can cross the ΒΌ mile line in about 13 seconds. To match these types accomplishments with another car, at least $80,000 will have to be spent. I need one!
