I heard the waiting list was HUGE! Like 1 year after release, they're all sold already!

I got on the list about 6 month ago for the SRT version.

I did not want to miss out!

**Hemi31** · 07-04-2006, 02:12 PM

Been there,still on it!

**striped** · 07-04-2006, 03:55 PM

call around to the dealers
and if you get lucky and find one that dosent have an srt ordered
then your the lucky one

**Hurst Equipped** · 07-04-2006, 04:16 PM

you can't order these yet. the initial order acceptance date has not be set yet. a waiting list to get one means.. 'who will pay the dealer the most money when they arrive.'

when the date has beed set, go to the dealer and place your special order with the options and color you want. special order cars are built first because they are concidered sold and have priority. also, you get to see your name on the window sticker. how cool it that.

Umm, hello, guys? Ummm.... dealers can't order the car yet. The first year's worth sold out already, huh? Riii-iiight. Just like the Magnum R/T was at first? (paid MSRP for mine three months after launch, no deposit, no list...) Or, like the Mag SRT was? (paid MSRP four months after launch...) Or like all 4,000 of the Ford GT;s were all pre-sold? (take your pick at $8k under MSRP right now, some dealers have 5 or more (!)...)

I don't think there will be a problem. Gas guzzlers aren't exactly flying off the showroom floor, and in 18 months when gas is $5 there will be plenty of hemi power waiting for a new home.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a' git me one a them thar hemi challengers, but I don't think we'll have to fight for them. After all, Dodge IS in the business of actually selling cars, and lots of them if they can... these aren't 1-of-11 hemicudas or anything.... nor will they be at the numbers they hope to produce.

Even the dealer here in Nova Scotia has a list GET ON IT and wait!

**BMW_killa** · 07-06-2006, 09:04 AM

I went to 3 dealerships all around my area and all had the same reply "we have no idea when you can even place an order" "well let you know as soon as we find out"

However 1 of them did say that I was the 2 guy in line to know when we can place an order..........is that what you guys are talking about?

1 of them actually told me that there was still no official word from chrysler!! I walked right outta that dealership

**Cainne** · 07-13-2006, 01:10 AM

Well the dealership or salesmen, its not always they're fault they dont know anything... Chrysler is REAL bad at letting their dealer network know what they're doing, heck unless the dealer or GM constantly reads websites and what not, they find out when the general public does for the most part.
Heck at my dealership i know more than the dealer and the General manager on average in terms of upcoming products, because they're not very internet savy.
Personally i think that's kinda dumb on chryslers part, if anyone should be privy to information first it SHOULD be the dealers and not the newspaper or internet sites ya know? It couldnt hurt.

**Beast** · 07-13-2006, 08:29 PM

I'm thinking the question will be new Challenger for $49,000 or $15,000 for 528 Hemi create motor in current ride with FAST EFI tuneable programming....and than there is Morpheus.

**Rev.Hammer** · 07-14-2006, 02:46 AM

Ask the mountain about patience, and wait. Believe the answer will come.

**MRKGroup** · 07-14-2006, 09:20 AM

We saw the Challenger at the Carlisle this past weekend. The Concept part was X out and 2008 was written on the card.

**1MRMOPAR** · 07-14-2006, 09:45 AM

At Carlisle this last weekend I talked to the Daimler/Chrysler rep and he told me that this first batch is only going to be high output (like no S^%T) 6.1Hemi cars in the high contrast colors and they will be between $50K - $60K. No advanced orders is what he told me. If dealerships are taking orders, it is a dealership thing not a Chrylser deal. Be careful with your money on this one.
I think that Chrysler has seen the mistake that Ford is making with the Shelby GT500. $41K MSRP, Dealerships are selling them in advance for as much as $125K....and people are paying!

I am dieing to add one to my Mopar Family, but not at those prices.
