I'm looking to swap out the 997 for something newer and with four doors. Trying to find a gcc M3 E90 without intergalactic miles and a silly price seems impossible and while theres a number of c63s on dubbizle they mostly look like they have all had very hard lives.

I'm still to scratch the v8 itch here so was thinking of a dodge charger as an alternative. The latest shape srt 392 looks like a lot of bang for the buck. Anyone own or driven one a fair bit and able to give a view? I'm not expecting m3 levels of chassis control, but the spec seems to include adjustable dampers, brembos etc. I'm guessing it's going to be a heavy old hector, track use is important but not sure if it's going to be viable? Any views?

Thanks Rich - and Matt smile

Great write up, love the car. Sounds like it might be a good option, but at 2 tonnes it might be a bit overweight for the track. My GTR was 1700kg, and despite all the best efforts of the Nissan professors to hide it you could still feel the heft.

I had it in my mind that it was sort of 3-series size, it I guess it's more like a 5 series. I'll head down to the dealers and try one out, love the look of them and intergalactic powerplant is going to be very addictive, should be a fun test-drive!
