Just like everyone else, I would rather get the R/T. Looks clean, and honestly, unmolested like the clone.

Who wants to drive an srt4 clone anyways, just look like a poser, but thats my 2 centzzzzz

Ask to see the maintenance history... preferably receipts for parts and work done.

111k miles = timing belt/water pump/etc should have been changed out.

If he doesn't have proof that it has been then the price should reflect.

The R/T is clean but is getting up there. Keep in mind extra cost for things breaking/needing replaced. Lownslow is absolutely right, make sure the big stuff is proven to be done or use as a bargaining point

Also make sure to check your control arm bushings as I'm sure they are toast if they haven't been replaced.
