Default Wishful Thinking: Challenger Plant Pick-up Program

Challenger Factory Delivery Program

I would call this fictitious delivery program CH8 (Challenger Hemi 8 cyl.)

Chevrolet offers its Corvette buyers a factory option (R8C) of picking up their brand new corvette at the Bowling Green, Kentucky factory.

Wouldn't it be a great idea if DCX would also offer its prospective Challenger owners the option of picking up your new Challenger at the Brampton, Ontario plant.

Tour the factory, perhaps watch your Challenger being built, and meet the guys buiding your Challenger.
Then spend a few days in cosmopolitan Toronto, catch a theatre show, do dinner in the multicultural city and visit its many tourist sites. CN Tower, Eaton Centre, shop Bloor st; Center Island, catch a professional sport ( Maple Leafs, Blue Jays, Raptors, Argos) . Then take a lovely cruise to your home state/province.

I would definitely sign up for it and I live 30 minutes from the Brampton factory.

Here is a couple of links describing Vette owners experience in the factory delivery program.


FYI, they have a buyers tour which is not included in the R8C museum delivery option, for additional $350 bucks. If I were picking up a new car, I would spring for it.

A second link describes and shows some photos of Corvette owners picking up their cars in Bowling Green.

So, what's your opinion guys and gals. Would you pay a little extra to come see and pick up your brand new Challenger at the factory?[sm=feedback.gif]
