RE: WHATS REALLY GOING ON WITH DODGE AND THESE CHALLENGERS???
This is an extraordinary car. As such, it's reasonable to expect extraordinary circumstances. It looks like Chrysler is making damn well sure that all cars that roll off the line are demonstrations of what Chrysler can do and how great this car really is. If they rolled the Chally off the like prematurely and screwed shit up royally you'd be making a similar post about "why didn't they wait". Let them get this ironed out.
I have a feeling that these cars won't "trickle" in. Once the official okay goes to ship'em out I bet every day we're doing to see people with grins on their faces and a brand new car on their driveway. Give it time.
Hell I just canceled my '08 orders an got my deposits back this Wednesday to go for an '09 SRT8 w/6-speed. I was all amped to get my car ANY WEEK now. Now I'm going to be waiting even more months. It sucks... it really sucks. But on the same token, I know I'm going to truly love the car and Chrysler is going to make sure it's an amazing machine before they OK the thing to be shipped out.
