    Which color for my SRT8?

    I have a 2005 R/T in Inferno Red. I like the color. I am getting a 2006 SRT8, hte problem is the color...red vs black (is the black a metallic black, and how much dirt does it show <-for a black car!)

    I like both, and a m trying to make up my mind...

    Any suggestions?

    i had a choice of all three, i went with black.

    i think the silver looks great on the 300c and the red looks badass on the charger. silver looked huge on the magnum.

    maybe this post will help

    I swore I'd never own another black car. Then I saw it in the showroom. Changed my mind in a hurry. Impossible to keep clean and impossible to stop looking at.

    I have black and LOOOoVVVVEE it!

    Just wash it right always. Or else you'll be kicking yourself every time you deal with spider-webbing and swirls.
