See if they will upgrade you to the SRT-8 425hp version for a "nominal charge". Hey - think of it like the '69 Firebird... do you want the 6 cyl version, or the Trans Am?! Which is cooler now, and also in 35 years?
It's easy to look back and say "man, for only $x more, I could have had a real special version of the car!" - but when it comes time to buy a new car, sometimes that extra $x means a lot!
