I don't think you can really compare the experience with SRT to a luxury brand like Mercedes, Lexus, BMW, etc. or even exotics like Ferrari. If you do of course you are going to be disappointed as all of of these are in a higher tier. I would probably compare the experience to buying a GTR from a Nissan dealer. It is a $100k+ car being sold at a dealer where there is also a sub $20k car. You ever try test driving a new GTR at a dealer? Good luck as most will not let you test drive them just like most dealers will not let you test drive the Viper. I'm sure the service is probably similar to SRT as well but that is not why you buy the car. These cars perform and that is what you are buying them for, not the free crepes and mocha lattes at the dealer where Wolfgang Puck is behind the counter. If SRT had their own dealers then I would expect a different experience similar to a Lexus experience but as of now they do not.
As for special ordering, I have only once special ordered a car which was a Lexus a couple years ago and even though it was a new model year truck, nothing changed from the prior year and it was still a month late and I never knew when I was going to get the car until it was at the port. Not trying to compare this experience with SRT but just trying to say try and be patient, it will likely be well worth the wait.
