Wet Burnout Video - 4meg WMV
New Bixenon Projector headlights with CCFL Halos:
The SRT8 version of the Grand Cherokee is modified at the factory with performance upgrades like 20" forged aluminum wheels (9" wide in front, 10" in rear), heavy duty swaybars and lowered suspension, runflat tires, and an aggressive dual exhaust with 4" centered tips. But the best upgrade is the well tuned 420 horsepower 6.1 liter Hemi V8, along with a tiptronic Mercedes AMG transmission.
I had a chance to drive it around Miami for a while before shipping it to the Caribbean island of St. Maarten where I live. Although it came with some nice options like a moonroof, bluetooth, MP3 CD changer, and Sirius satellite radio (which does work in the Caribbean - unlike XM) there's a few mods I've done so far...
