if i had a choice of cars priced $15k more than the G coupe, i would absolutely 1000% positively get an M3 and would not even consider the chrysler. just my opinion

Nice first impression for sure....but I probably wouldn't. Had a chrysler before....HAD is the key word here.

from what i have read this is based on a lot of dodge viper, me-412 and a hemi engine with 425 hp.

i am pretty sure it will cost 60k+ though

i'd trade only because everyone and their mom has a G and this is rare and looks a lot more expensive than $15k+G price...

I'd rather get a Vette. Especially the next gen Z06, which is supposed to have ~500hp and cost somewhere around 60k. I saw a preview of it. It produces more torque than the peak torque output of the V10 BMW M5, at only 1600 rpm

My last chrysler was a Jeep Grand Cherokee. Had it for 4 years. In that time it had to have 2 new transmissions, 2 new rear ends, new A/C compressor, new front struts, several new computer components (it once stranded me out in west Texas because it wouldn't shift out of 1'st gear.) And I pampered that vehicle like hell. $18,000 in repairs on a $25k vehicle. I wouldn't touch another Chrysler vehicle with a ten foot pole. My parents didn't listen and last year bought a new Town & Country van. So far: new transmission, electrical failures and the sun visor on the driver's side just suddenly fell OFF (while they were in traffic.) No way.
