You Lucky Folks ! You're close to receiving your dream car soon. I was told quite a few months ago that all the 2008 Challenger's were sold. In the last week I've tried to order a 2009 SRT8 from dealers in my area (Inland Empire, SoCal), only to be told that I would have to go through the same bidding war for the limited production of this car that you folks went through. They seem to have a perceived idea that the 2009 models will be worth even more than the cars you are anxiously awaiting.

What ??

Surely, we know that you folks lucky enough to have been able to order a 2008 will definitely have a unique classic.

But why, in a depressed economy will dealers try to limit availability? Surely their desire to increase profit from each sale will have an adverse effect on demand to the factory.

This definitely has a negative impact on Chrysler and companies developing aftermarket products for the SRT8.

If anyone knows of a dealer willing to offer the 2009 Challenger SRT8 at suggested retail in SoCal, please let me know. Thanks.

i just refuse to be taken advantage of.
