A very nice ride :) So hunting small Mercedes and stuff with a pickup was big fun for you, too. They often cannot believe what passes them :)

@ another mark
ed is right. My 1999 R/T is a Canadian Import.

Mopar Headers, high flow metal cat, a Dynomax muffler and 2 Supertrapp mufflers at the back. I need the supertrapp to lower the noise level due to the local Swiss laws. Most of the time I drive with the end caps removed ;)

One of the most entertaining posts in awile! This reminds me of a former serviceman telling me about his 1969 Dodge 440 Coronet going 140 mph routinely on the Autobahn. He said he never could stop for gas without someone asking to see under the hood.

I can understand that - a 440 Coronet is a hot and fast car with the right gears.

I was into American Car very early - I owned several cars, especially Camaros and always had big fun with them. Check this:
