RE: Edmunds Report on 2008 Challenger Sales
OK, so if they're building as many as they can, what is the point of them putting a serial numbered dash plate on the 2008 models. The 2008's are going to be a limited production. Once they sell out of those, they will go into a full production run of 2009's.
You have to remember, the Challenger isn't scheduled to come out until spring of this year. When do next year models normally come out? Normally around September or October.
This means they have from spring until fall to sell their 5,000 limited production 2008's, then in fall 2008, you'll see the full production line of 2009's hit the show room floor.
Yes, they are going to be building as many as they can, but that first run that lasts the first few months are going to be the serial numbered 2008's who will go to the highest bidder. Everyone else will get the '09's in fall 2008.
