Challenger Info

[Smithman]

I saw they released pricing info on the new Dodge Challengers. The manufacturer’s suggested retail price is $40,095, and will be SRT8's with a 6.1-liter HEMI V-8 engine. They already have over 6,000 people that put down deposits without seeing the car! The production pictures look great. I can't wait to see the vehicle at the Chicago Auto Show. Anyone on the list to get one?

Well I hope for 6,000 people's sake it looks like the prototype.

My friend's dad was one of those 6,000. He opted for the top-spec model, and promised me a drive.

The base GT will be less, but that's because it's not of as higher spec as the Camaro and Challenger. As for other versions, well, dunno.

I didnt know the base was planned on having that much...hardly an entry level base model isnt it I personally thought it would be in the vincinty of our VE SS' 260kw (348 hp) and not our 300kwish (400.5 hp) HSV models.

What ever happened to entry level performance cars? or ar ethey all small european and japanese turbo cars nowdays?

Won't it have the 5.3-litre or a V6 as a base model?

Those pics look awesome! It looks true to the concept which is key and definitely has the retro vibe that I was expecting. I'm ready to see it in black and orange though. I don't think the silver quite does it justice. Dodge released production numbers for the 2008 SRT8's - they're building 6,400 and each will have a dash plaque displaying the car number. Pretty sweet!
