Speaking of which, the 2004-2006 GTO was a sleeper in my opinion. Few people really knew what it was and with the 6.0 NA tossing 400/400 it was pretty damn fast for the time and was ridiculously mod friendly.
My first ever brand new car was a 2006 Chrysler 300C SRT8, had a lot of GTOs sleep on me. Drove past every one, I did lose to a new C6 Corvette with it though. That 300 SRT8 was a fun car to have back then, most people didn't know what it was and I went a best of 12.9@109 with it stock. There were not a lot of other cars that could run that back then...let alone 4-door sedans!

I remember walking into a Chrysler dealer in 2006 to spec a black 300C SRT8 out. Sales guys was nice enough to give a 26 year old a moment of his time and indulge me; it never came to fruition (took my commission and the Army consumed my time) - but that was the most gangster car I could have thought to have at the time. And to think I was driving a black turbo Buick, my MCSS, and a few other toys.

It is no surprise I landed in a Hellcat 14 years later.

Our 2007 TBSS is a bit of an unknown commodity on the roads... that AWD system always gives it a seasonal advantage off the line.

70 Dart swinger with a 340, friend had one in high school and it showed its tail lights to a lot of big blocks back in the day.
