RE: Old School Diehard
I wish I could have ordered the car to my specs as well.
Of course it could not be done, so I had to sit down and figure out what items I had to have. I realized I would save myself nearly ten large by going with the R/T over the SRT. Once this was done, I had to figure out which "packages" included these items. I ended up with a few things I would have rather not had, but my car is still "less loaded" than most. One of the big "deal-breakers" for me was a sunroof. I could have bought three Challengers close to home had I been able to live with a sunroof. I stood firm, and it cost me a trip out of state to pick up my car. In the end, the car that I bought only had one option that I would not have ordered...the R/T hood/fender stripes. Good thing they are just stickers that will easily come off!
If it was possible to set one up from scratch, I would have ordered a bare-bones 6.1, 6-speed, 3.92 axle, and the Brembo brakes.
