Hi talentsmart and welcome to the Dodge challenger forum
. So far beside that the fact that it will be built as rwd hemi powered coupe with a manual nothing has been offically confirmed. The dealer either had insider sources, was making it up or possibly took an educated guess based on the current vehicles in the DCX lineup. Either way feel welcome to read previous threads about this and similar questions on the forum and I hope to see you "write" many more posts.
