Sounds kinda cool but doesn't look like they're coming anywhere near me - Memphis is the closest, so guess I'll be giving this one a miss.

Hmmm... a mere 1138.92 miles to the closest one. Arizona in December might not be too bad, but not practical. Dang.

Just returned from this event and have to say I was not impressed at all. Dodge had a small area to deal with and no real room to do much. They had a small driver course for either a 08 Charger SRT or an 09 Journey to drive around. It was about 1/3 mile around cones etc. at 15 mph. I drove the Charger for effect though and must say I liked it and the wife was impressed with it. There were a few cars and trucks of course, and then one 08 Challenger. The Challenger was Silver, badge number 6 of 6400. I tried to take a pic of the interior badge but it is blurry due to glare. However I did get a few pics (posted) and did get to se it up close, always a good deal there. The one funny point was they had a model board listing the car as an 09. I quickly admonished them that it was an 08, not an 09.

Hmm, that's a shame - guess it's just as well that I couldn't have made it anyway.

I went there also. I took one picture of #6. I think this is the same silver car that was at the Chicago Auto Show earlier this year. Note that I'm pretty sure the interior badge is different than the regular badges. I believe all the regular production cars have the number to the left of the "Challenger" and that they say "of 6400". This one is to the right and I think it just says "000006" or something like that. I also could not get a picture of the badge due to the glare though.
