!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! But SRT's other products must be selling better, because they aren't slowing production of them. Their two super sedans, the 300 SRT and Charger SRT are some of the best performing, RWD, V8 sedans you can get for the price. But, which one do you pick?

There's the boy-racer Charger. With it's full-length tail lights, big rear spoiler, and obnoxious body kit, It's definitely the crazier of the two looks wise. But it's the cheaper of the too, also. With a starting MSRP of $44,385, it's not cheap by any means, but it's still cheaper.

Then there's the mafia-esque 300 SRT. There's nothing boy-racer about it, except for what sits under the hood. This thing looks good, especially in white with the black grille and wheels. But the looks come with a price. This one is the more expensive of the two at $49,900 for the premium model.

Myself, I'd pick the 300 SRT. It's the Mopar that made me question why I was a GM fan. Even the first generation was menacing, albeit poorly screwed together at best. But the second generation is definitely a well rounded, high performance highway cruiser. I gave you my pick, now what's yours?

Charger hands down. There is something about the taillights that makes me smile every time I see them. I don't even care if it's a cop. It's the most unique taillight you see these days. Plus, the front grill looks more defined and aggressive.

The Srt Viper is no longer officially produced as a Dodge, but as a subsidiary, my best guess is that if they have just slowed Viper production, for that factory

I love the Charger...but you cant go wrong either way. It comes down to do you want to be a baller or a badass?

I just hate how Mitsu Lancer that black insert makes the grille look. But I just learned you can get it painted the same color as the car, so that helps.

I'd go Walter White all over a 300. But in black.

I'd go 300 due to the more grown up styling.

I'd be so torn over what to get. White with black grille/wheels or Black with silver grille/wheels.

Whichever one offers a manual transmission!

Just kidding. 300 SRT for me. I honestly think it's a very very good looking car after it's latest update. The charger on the other hand went in completely the opposite direction. It was OK looking, now it looks like a

That's how I feel about it, the old one just looks classier and a little less crazy

Yeah, i'd even say i liked the old Charger SRT a tiny bit more than the old 300 SRT. Now it's not even close.

I'd go for the Chrysler 300 SRT8, despite the ancient 5-speed auto. I think it looks so much better inside and out than the current Charger.

How does it look classier? It has a big, dumb, non-functioning hood scoop.

Okay, classy was bad word choice. Lets go with, it's a cleaner design.

Charger. Why have a. Car like that if it doesn't scare the crap out of people when they see it In their mirrors?

Aaaaand the 300's LEDs in the headlight look stupid

There would be one perk to the Charger, people move out of your way because they think you're a cop. But that could also cause them to slow down and ruin your fun.

The Mrs was saying I should put the hood on mine. I think its like fake badging a car ( helloooo BMW owners with m badges ( and the odd Toyota)). My V6 doesnt need more weight...

True that is a double edged sword. I'd need a forward facing exhaust so they could hear the roar

Neither. I'd get the Chevy SS, because it has a better laid out interior, better driving dynamics, and it's a hell of a sleeper. The 300 and Charger are simply too old right now, their platforms need significant updates before I would consider them to be competitive again.

300 is a classier car with cleaner lines. It's a sleeper.

Charger just screams "look at me, I am a muscle car". It's sharp, edgy and demands to be noticed.

Do you want to crawl up on someone unnoticed and blow their doors off or you want to be the guy in a bad ass sedan in someone's rear view mirror ready to eat them alive?

Personally I would go with the 300 because I am not a fan of the tacky looking body kit on the Charger.
