    Some of you already know me through the M&G Scott organized last Saturday. My name is Hans and I live in the South Bay. Am originally from Germany but totally into American cars (always have great discussions with my dad who is into overpriced BMWs). I had a 2001 Chrysler 300M for a couple years. Was a great car! Then almost got a new 300C but was too impatient and got an '04 Thunderbird instead. Didn't keep that one for too long though. Traded it for an '05 Cool Vanilla Magnum RT that was barely used. Well, in October of '06 I made the mistake of test driving the SRT8. Couple days later it was in our drive way. Love that car (Inferno Red with all Option Groups). And love Mopar. Last month I did my first mod: Mopar CAI & Catback. Totally dig that HEMI Sound!

    Thanks guys! Am just hoping Mopar is surviving these tough times for car makers so that we can enjoy SRTs for years to come.

    Ron, I can understand for you to wanting to come back. Came here in 1989 as a student to do an internship at Atari (which was a lot of fun). I just had to come back to this wonderful place. Only thing I miss is the Autobahn to take my SRT up to the speeds it was designed for. Wouldn't it be nice to have some extra money, take 2 months off this summer and ship it over and show those Audis and BMWs what the mother of all American station wagons is made off... Everyone would be: what the heck is this???

    Didn't know there were so many other bay area SRT folks on here. I remember Tamara's Charger from some of the other Forums. Next time you guys do a Bay Area M&G again I will try to make it there.
