Story

2012 Chrysler 300 SRT8

The 2012 Chrysler 300 SRT8 applies the factory SRT program to a full-size four-door sedan. The government record and Chrysler specification sheet agree on the exact-year 6.4-liter application, while the factory sheet reports 470 horsepower under SAE J2723.

HEMI and limited slip

The reviewed specification identifies the 3.06 Getrag limited-slip differential and factory electronic-control context. This record preserves those exact claims while leaving finer production, finish, cabin, option, and authenticity matrices unresolved.

Evidence boundary

The approved exterior photograph is representative of the model year and body. It does not prove the photographed car's drivetrain, originality, or build history; those claims require serial-specific records and inspection.
