Those cars are MSRP. Unless they add the "Market value" tag, when you get there. [>:]

Well yeah the challenger will not always be the shiny new limited model that it is now. But just in comparison to the S197 mustangs I doubt you will see even half as many challengers. I think it is a very timeless design and between that and actual production/sales numbers it will not become played out the way the mustang has. And if we end up with a repeat of the 70s, production could stop after 3 model years while the mustang keeps on going, that would limit its presence as well.

Certainly you jest! SOME of us waited 34 YEARS for the return of the Challenger. Yeah. SOME of us have been loyal to Challengers that long. Dodge should have kept making them, like Ford did with the Mustang. I certainly HOPE the Challenger's presence is NEVER limited again. And if that drives down the price of the "collectors edition" 2008s, so what? Personally, if I had an 08, I'd NEVER get rid of it, just like I won't my 09s. "Collectors" can go to hell as far as I'm concerned.

It would be great to see the New Challenger go for 5+ years, They need to watch the sales of the SE the V6 sales are going to be the backbone of the line

I agree that 5y is a reasonable mark. They always mention that they will make it as long as people buy it.

Once sales drops, they should try out the mind-eye design idea for different classic models like GTX, road drunner, coronet, belvedere, demon, ... If gas price is too high by then, a 4 cil. turbo or hybrid car will do as long as it smokes tires .

I think if they were building the Cuda and the Challenger.
Most would buy the Cuda.
So I am sure all can't get a cuda but all will buy a challenger instead......
Makes me wonder what people will buy..................Eslick

Would you rather have a Cuda or Challenger, Roadrunner or SuperBee? Most would opt for the Plymouth models, unfortunately they eliminated that model and kept Dodge instead.
