So what will it all cost? Being that the Magnum RT is priced about $6,000 lower than a similarly equipped Chrysler 300C, and the 300C SRT8 starts at $39,995 USD, which is about $7,000 USD more than a base 300C. With the Magnum RT starting at $30,070 USD, if the difference remains the same the Magnum SRT8 should start around $37,000 USD and change.
To factor Canadian pricing into the equation, $7,000 is roughly $8,500 CAD at today's exchange rate, which if converted directly across would translate into a $47,500 Magnum SRT8, or thereabouts.
At that price, the Magnum SRT8 will be one of the best performance values around.
