When i sold Dodges i didnt really like the nitro for its performance but loved the styling and we always were talking about Dodge throwing either a 5.7LT or the 6.1Lt and i have been reading more and more about the 5.7 version

that is gonna be a badass little car

UPDATE: We're fairly certain this is a fake perpetrated with a spare "SRT-8" badge and some super glue, having gotten confirmation from a number of sources that there's no way the 6.1L HEMI would fit in the Nitro. Thanks, Dodge.

I like it

thanks for the updaye

that looks mad clean

kinda cool. if they do it maybe GM will do somthing with the HHR

i dont see it makin it to production....

Either do I.

I see Chrysler shying away from additional advancement in their SRT division and trying to move towards more fuel-efficient vehicles. They need to ask themselves, "Will an SRT Nitro sell?" Maybe it will, but probably not enough to warrant production on it.

Exactly what i was thinkin.

It's also ugly as hell, that purple one was alright but the other shots were ugly

They have the SS HHR

I think Dodge better start putting time into hybrid cars like everyone else if they want to stay afloat.
Quit all this stuffing Hemi V8s into everything crap.
That thing got a Hemi?
Yeah..thats why it's still on the lot.
It sounds nice and everyone wants performance cars,but like our parents taught us..you can't always have what you want.

Good point, I didn't even consider that Dodge doesn't have a hybrid or even have on in the works that we are aware of. I don't even know of any gas saving things they have in the works other than cylinder deactivation.
