The SRT-8 would stomp either the 4.6 or the 4.8 Bimmers. It comes down to personal taste and who you are when it comes to buying a vehicle. If you want to shell out cash for a used car or new car. You will definitely find the Bimmer has better interior quality and nicer curves and a higher 'retained' value...however that said the Jeep is brand new and can have up to a 70,000 mile warranty from the dealer. If performance is your big push (and by comparing the 4.6 and not the 3.0/4.4, I'm guessing it is) then the SRT-8 is the easy winner. And if all you care about is hauling fishing equipment and smaller not-so-truck items, then the SRT-8 is probably a great choice.

Now if you have already, in your mind, narrowed it down to the 4.6 then obivously the newest you can afford would hold the most value.

Again, comes down to personal style. People will rag Jeep quality...but I can find you just as many people that will rag BMW quality. It's all relative, buy what you like...either vehicle is awesome.
