    it can't be a customer car, production keeps on getting pushed back and now it seems they are having issues with body panel gaps and fitment.

    I guess I just imagined the whole thing then.....a guy in his 30's on the short side with a hat that had bought the car....and the first picture I took where the motorcycle was pulling up to the pump and blocked the car as the picture was taken(I posted the 2nd one). It was a dream...must have been....because real life experience couldn't possibly go against something heard on the internet.

    Alabama is a long way from Detroit for having a delay in production....there is OBVIOUSLY at least one car out in someones hands....this is a first hand sighting and not something found on the net .

    I'm not saying it's completely impossible, and if you would check at allpar, there are guys that work at BAP there and they still say not a single customer car has rolled down the line, and no, I'm not making fun. Just stating what I've read from guys at BAP. And believe me, I'm not trying to say that it was a dream, it might have possibly been a FF car.

    BTW, production was slated for April 21st, but it's been changed to the 28th...so believe what you want and I'll keep on checking allpar. heh :D

    Well they can say what they want......I wasn't drinking and I have never smoked anything and I hadn't even taken a Lortab(but those don't make me hallucinate anyway).....so I'll take first hand personal viewing as a trump over what anyone "says".

    While I thought it was cool to see I didn't think it was THAT big a deal otherwise I would have had the guy give me a DNA sample and a VIN.

    Here is the first picture taken....

    Tell him he's doing it wrong.

    Dodge even made a fuel door that says FUEL. He doesn't need to open the hood to fill it up.



    Well, we have what seems to be the 1st confirmed sighting of an OWNED Challenger. The rest should be coming soon then!!

    Didn't someone post a pic in the last couple of weeks on here that showed the Chally's on a car hauler on the freeway? Wouldn't that mean they started shipping them out?

    I saw an orange one here in Toledo a few days ago. Just got a glimpse as it passed me going the other way. There was a Sublime Daytona close behind.

    What does it take for some of you guys to get the message. NO customer car has been shipped. Any challengers running around are for executives, higher up corp workers and engineers. These cars are for fast feedback. There are over 100 of them out there. By the way, has anyone read any Chrysler press release about the Challenger launch ? NO, because it hasn't happened...:(

    So that would mean that the person who posted a thread on a Crossfire forum with pictures of his new Challenger with NY license plates in his driveway is either a high exec or has excellent photoshop skills & is lying to everyone
