I saw an R/T in Bowling Green last Saturday that was solid black with black wheels and a bright red R/T stripe across the hood . . . bad to the bone!

The thing you should be apologizing for is the picture itself.

Planning on two red hash marks, on the drivers side, only. gonna look stealth. a blower kit will get me to 320, but for now,, it's just a nice, quiet cruise. Would of kept them both,, but couldn't justify it financially,, and yes Bangkok Dean,, it is a Honda.

The SE, which i got, only weighs 3720,, which is good. with an available blower you'll get 320hp, too. not to shabby all in all. RT is 4040,, SRT8 4140. it's that iron block. SE gets an all aluminum, jobber.

The chrome touch on the front, does give it a better look and more like the old days when bumpers were on all the cars.
