- ✓Ensure the ignition key turns smoothly; if it feels "notchy," the barrel is about to fail.
- ✓Check the rear spoiler operates correctly (it should deploy automatically at 60mph).
- ✓Inspect the wheel arches and door bottoms for rust, which is common on early models.
- ✓The manual gearbox has a long throw and is less popular than the smooth Mercedes-sourced 5-speed automatic.
- ✓SRT-6 models are rare and very fast but come with significantly higher maintenance costs for their supercharged engines.
