There has been some great point counterpoint about if the SRT is worth more than the RT. My personal opinion is, WHO REALLY GIVES A RAT'S BUTT? You buy the car you want and either you are happy or unhappy with it. If you are scared to lose money, put your cash in a money market account not a car, any car. I spent 48K on a 2006 Avalanche 2 years ago. I just traded it in and got blue book..16K. So what!! I bought it because I wanted it, needed it. Not for investment. You want investment, go buy gold or silver. Geez, its a freaking car for crying out loud. A beautiful work of art yes but still a car. Get over it.
And for Kevin, just watch the Barrett Jackson Auto auction if you dont think American cars retain value.
Great points brucer... but there is no need or point to justifying a money market as an investment... it obviously is.
If I can somehow justify my Challenger purchase as an investment I can feel better about my "smart" purchase decision.
As fun as money markets are... I personally think the Challenger will have more "seat of the pants" entertainment value, and might edge out the money market in the coolness factor too.
Remember, with this or any other investment... youre milage may vary...
