I was driving back from a Jeep trip in Moab, Utah Thursday night and stopped in Durango, CO for some shuteye. I get up yesterday morning and there are 3 SRT convertables sitting in the parking lot. At first glance, I ignored them, but I saw the bra cover the WHOLE hood. Could it be? Hell yes!

It seems they were testing at high altitudes and had been playing in the mountains. I talked to the guys for a few, but of course, they wouldn't answer any questions except when I told him I was going to start looking for a 2006 Coupe to replace my 1998 GTS. He got a big grin on his face and said, "Wait 2 years!" I have some pics that I wil post later tonight or in the morning. I missed my chance to get the engine when he opened it because I was turned the other way. He slammed it shut when I turned around.

I did hear it run, it it sounded great! He said someone caught some great video of him running this shit out of the car in Death Valley about a month ago. From what I gathered, they are testing 3 of them and using one for the real beating. He did say that the body would stay the same expect for the hood (which looked great!), but hinted there were some other changes underneath.

Pics coming soon.
