2009 Chrysler 300C SRT-8 Hemi
Powered by an all-new 6.1-liter Hemi(R) V8 engine that delivers 425 horsepower, the 2009 Chrysler 300C SRT8 builds momentum for Hemi and the Chrysler 300C and is the latest addition to the Chrysler group's Street and Racing Technology (SRT) performance vehicle lineup.

2009 Dodge Viper SRT-10

2006 Pontiac GTO
The original Pontiac GTO was nicknamed "the Goat" as much for its defiant, stripped-to-the-basics personality as for the letters in its name. The 2004-'06 incarnation was so much more refined and upscale that to call it a Goat would almost have been an insult. Many of the old car's charms had also been lost in translation, including its affordable price tag. The new coupe started in the low $30Ks -- hardly an attainable sum for young, cash-strapped enthusiasts. Bland exterior styling was another weak point. Power initially came from a 5.7-liter V8, but Pontiac swapped in a larger 6.0-liter V8 the ...
