I thought if a 3.0 would a 3.5 shouldn't be that much of a strech
I had a pearl white convertible before I bought my srt. It was a nice car but things just kept going wrong. For starters they used too small of bolts on the exhaust manifold so they always broke when the car got some mileage on it. Finding a competent mechanic to fix that without messing up the engine costs $
The adjustable suspension also went out. Plus so many of the parts were dealer only parts which cost alot of money. ($250 for power window button). When I finally got rid of mine it needed alot of work and just wasnt worth it. (speedometer didnt work, convertible top needed replaced, exhaust leak, power window motor gone, etc.) Also the convertibles were not from the factory they were sent to some company in california to be converted which lead to alot of problems with them leaking etc. They came with a boot to cover the top when you put it down which used small snap buttons to hold it down so most people lost the boots soon after getting the car. (cost me $400 to buy a new one)
so if I can offer any knowledge on the car let me know. Its been almost 3yrs since I owned it so I might get a couple things wrong
