The RS (01-07) was a really good platform and the 3.8 is a really good engine. A long time ago, Chrysler transmissions went out a lot- but that was a long time ago.

Last fall I was looking for an RS for the wife but she wanted something newer than 07. A lot got carried over into the RT (08+) and we got one of those. We're happy with it.
