Speaking of Hemi's, has anyone seen the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT?
I wonder if it could take on a Cayenne S.
Being a former Grand Cherokee driver, I always loved the V8s they put in there. Unfortunately, the Porsche wins out. On the other hand, you could almost buy 3 Grand Cherokee SRT8s for one Cayenne Turbo S...
Jeep 0-60: 5.2 (13.5 1/4mile)
Cayenne Turbo S: 4.8 (Porsche website) (Magazines list it as 0-62 [0-100kph] in 5.2 seconds)
Since the new Challenger doesn't even exist yet... it's a good 10-15 years away from being deemed a classic.

Shelby GT500E over a regular Stang any day. But neither are my top choices of classics.

Don't forget the original muscle car, the GTO. I saw that new Challenger last week when it was announced...its a sweet looking car....much truer to its heritage than that pathetic looking Charger.....I'd take a serious look at that thing when it comes out.
The Jeep SRT-8 is an intriguing concept as well since I definitely miss the utility of my old SUV (but I don't miss the performance )
