I can assure you they pre-production models. I checked onTOPS, and the SRT model is not available. ie: they are not into production yet.

BeforetheCaliber came out, our reps drove one to us. It was kind of crazy because there wasn't a VIN stamped anywhere on the car.

there's a confirmed owner as of two weeks ago, it was all over the srt forums (various ones). it's not a test mule.

not that it matters, it's still ugly. people will buy it...but it's a freaking sport-ute muscle car, and that's just an atrocity.

Come on now its not that ugly. I thought the same thing until I saw one in person. Although Im still not crazy about the intercooler position and piping. I got to experience one first hand at MATT this year and they are not as slow as everybody thinks. With a good driver and some mods, I bet they will be outrunning our cars. DCR is already working on the platform for them. Just my .02 tho.
