Default My First 2009 R/T spotted Today

I saw my first 2009 R/T on the way home from work today. It was black and had the 18" wheels. It looked really nice but I did notice it set somewhat higher then my SRT8. No I did not have CRUSH or yes, I would have jumped him.

It's amazing that you see so few Challengers on the street. I've had mine since June and I have seen "ONE" on the street. The dealers have them, but they don't seem to be moving. Are the dealers still trying to get MSRP and above for Challengers?

The SRT is 1" lower than an R/T.

My wife went to work this evening and called me up to tell me there was an RT in Titanium in the parking lot at her work. This is the first one we have seen around here. I live about 45 miles SW of Chicago.

A guy at my work has a '08 SRT and I have seen 1 TorRed SE across the street, but no R/T's.

Since you weren't in Crush, he was just looking down on you as being a non-Challenger driver.

I've had mine for a little over a month now and have not seen any others in the area. I was eating at Pizza Hut tonight and a distant relative came up to me and told me that he had seen an orange one with fender stripes on a dealership lot about an hour away from us. He also said that it had 18 inch wheels, which made it look quite different from my 20 inch ones.
