WhiteHeat, you are correct. If the color I want is not popular enough then it will never come to production. I suspect there has to be some tipping point where the color makes sense. Look at how many peole have screamed for Sublime, or Plum Crazy but where are those colors? Subsumed by red and gray probably.

npeifer - Perhaps I am a bit more disciminating than you. I understand where you are coming from perhaps you could meet me half way.
Am I appreciative that Chrysler even built the Challenger? Well, sure, kind of maybe. I am "pleased" perhaps, but "appreciative" maybe not. They are not doing me a favor. Don't forget if I want this car, I am the one who has to help augment their R&D. Perhaps they should be appreciative that I would forego my wishes and purchase one of thier poorly managed color selections. Otherwise, they would go out of business.
But why do a half a$$ job is the real question. I would have thought they would complete the action by delivering on the whole product -interior and colors too -that "Mopar Nation" wants first and then produce the stuff "that look good on all Chrysler products". Pa lease. its a luxury *appreciative* indeed.

Oh, and it would not be a bad idea to get a low build number either, there are bragging rights in having one before the next guy 8^) Actually, I would like both. a low production build number and a low production color choice. Seems I better not hold my breath for either.

Ok, I'll will duct now to avoid the cross fire (Oh, stike that, they killed that car too.)
