A Jeep SRT8 with NO OPTIONS starts at $60k, can easily get to $70k+.

It's the same speed as a BASE WRX for more then twice the damn price. Complete waste of $. Period.

-This is coming from an owner of previous Jeep products, they are all the usual overpriced Chrysler products.

You think I'm kidding ?
2012 Jeep GC SRT8


2009 Subaru WRX base


Sure there are times out there a few tenths slower and faster for both, but they have the same trap and ET given same track conditions, etc. The WRX will come out on top more in the real world though because not all of us live at sea level, the ECU in the WRX adjusts timing and boost for altitude. The Jeep can't do this since it's N/A. The higher up you go the greater the gap will be between both, in colorado springs the WRX should be a solid .6-.8 and 4-5 mph faster.

Shall we discuss the aftermarket where the 392's ECU has yet to be cracked as well ? The WRX can run 12's with less then $1k in mods, at any altitude.

I'm pretty sure they cracked the ecu on the 392s the other day and the jeep and wrx are two different cars a performance SUV vs a car isn't a good comparison. It's not always about speed my friend. A L99 stock for stock has less hp then a 300 your mods probably just evened it out it should be a good race

LOLOL, Could we compare apples to hamburgers? last i checked WRXs did not have standard leather, adaptive cruise control, backup camera hosts of other high end safety and luxury features the WRX could only dream about. The 13 is 59.995 because basically everything that was optional in 12 is standard now,not including the alpine package, which is an appearance packakge, the only options are the panoramic sunroof, SRT audio, and rear seat DVD, yay. And FYI, the 392 ECU HAS been cracked. Really, the GC SRT-8 is a less powerful and cheaper MB M63 for around 36k less and that is for starters, unlike the GC the M63 is far FAR from loaded and goes easily over 100k with as 1 option....

Hardly, this is a driver's race, no more complicated than that, both cars run roughly the same times stock, both have similar mods, both are automatics. THis is one of those races that will basically come down to who can launch their car better.
