Here is another rumor to add to the bunch I live in an Active Adult Community of semi retired and retired people and my neighbor lady just retired from Chrysler LLC and was secrtery to a Corporate VP and she told me that there is no limit on the SRT 8 models for 2009 and they will build as many as they can sell and that yes actual customer sold orders from dealers will be built first but intermixed with the need to build employees cars and fleet models and the scheduling has noting to do with vin numbers, body styles, options , paint color or anything other than what they can deliver to get the money back as soon as they can so business is the build status above all else. Take this for what its worth I believe it but it is only one persons word and not an official Dodge news statement she also said there is a small delay on the new 6 sp standard trans sorry for no puntuation as the post doesnt like it Fat Cat

j/k, Bud.
Thanks for the inside info. That coincides with what I stated earlier. I hope its true. I really dont want to drive my 09 SRT back to Upstate NY from Ohio in November or December. The F1 tires wouldnt do well in the winter muck, I fear.

Well, thats both good and bad news for me, Fatcat. Good that I won't have to wait until the end of the model year for my SRT8, bad in that I ordered the 6-Speed. Ah well, you win some, you lose some.

Just checked the Unofficial Dodge Challenger Registry and it (in a way) verified what FATCAT indicated.
Of the four cars currently listed in D status, theyre all automatics.
