Ive talked to dozens of dealerships in Canada, and I even had one tell me that an 08 SRT8's MSRP for Canada is 56,900....There are zero dealers in Canada letting them go for less than 65-70,000. Its ridiculous. I understand the mark up, of course, its a limited run! However, Chrysler releases them (or so I would think) for US...not so the dealerships can make an over abundance of money on them. I somehow doubt that the limited run was a reward to dealershps and car salesmen.
Its bad trying to buy one in the U.S, and its outright disgusting in Canada, since were only getting 500 up here. 45,100 off eBay works for me...thanks anyway Dealers.
Call a Windsor dealer. They have many in stock and will sell to anyone at MRSP or below. I talked to one salesman who said they had a list of 22 names looking to buy one and no one was still interested after they arrived. 500 for canada is lots to go around.
I called A dodge dealer in Windsor, and they do indeed have one. Salesman told me MSRP was 52,500...I asked what number of 500 it was and apparently the Canadian ones dont have numbers, the tag on the dash just said First Edition Challenger 500. Either not numbered or its #500...im guessing the first.
Currently I have one from the states that I bought off ebay for 45,100. There seems to be a bit of uncertainty as to wether or not they can sell an american car to a canadian, but my old man lives down there too, so I can go that route if needed. Bottom line is, 45000 + shipping, tax and border charges is gonna run me 51,000 all together...52,500+ tax, delivery and all the other crap is gonna be closer to 60...Great to be Canadian..
