Hey Budman,
You forgot Ken and Roger at the good ole call center.

Out of concern for your sanity Brucer.... Never dial that number, but if you do ask for Roger

 

Guys I really do understand your frustration but when you get your car it really is all worth it . It seams to really come alive around 500 miles

 

Budman using that 800 number works to keep my nerves calm. At least now I have someone that will give me answers when I call. My dealer was a bit hesitant about giving me any answers and they are few and far between. I think its a great thing to have and I think you for posting it! At least I can bother them until I get a VIN and can bother you guys! lol. I am not sure who I spoke too as he had a severe Indian accent but he did tell me to call back after the 11th as I shoulod move to D1 and have my VIN by then. He did say though I possibly could see my Challenger by mid September.

 

Hey guys. Originally I was right with the rest of you who were telling people to chill out and calm down. "It'll be here soon", I kept telling myself. A little bit of back story: Like most of us, I got up early in the morning on December 13, and placed my order for a 2008 Dodge Challenger with all the option. Set deal, MSRP plus small handling fee, and I was the second person in line (first with a Black car). I have been keeping in touch with my dealer, and Chrysler regularly, and have constantly pestered Joani for my Vinvision. Unfortunatly, I seem to be lost somewhere in Quality Control. But now, you ask, why am I frustrated? Well, faithful viewers, my chosen dealership happens to be on my way home, and as I passed it today, I decided to rub salt in the wound and stop by. Of course, right in the window, the dealership has not one, but two bright and shiny Dodge Challengers. And wouldn't you know it, neither of them is mine. Both hemi orange. Due to the holiday, I couldn't stop in to check their numbers, or perhaps to give the dealer a piece of my mind. However, it seems like my being the second person in line with the second car ordered, mine should be the second one that they get. Am I wrong in thinking this? I know I must sound like a whiny toddler craving a way too expensive toy (well, I guess half of that is true), but I'm really getting fed up with this. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for all of you guys who have your cars, and I know you'll say that it will be worth it, but I still feel like there is no excuse for that second car not being mine. I'm probably blowing this whole thing waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out of proportion. Thoughts?

 

I hear you, the local dealer support just wasn't there. We live in Virginia and we had to go to Boston to find a dealership that wanted to sell me a new Challenger.

 

I am upset because yesterday saw a orange chally with a dealer tag from the dealer I purchased mine from I orderd mine at least two weeks before this other guy but yet he recieved his first i think that is bull shit what do you guys think ???

 

Well... just found out that my dealer received order #3 on the 4th. Order # 2 is in transit to dealer. Order #1 -MINE- still hasn't been built...

Guess I am a bit befuddled... [:@]

 

Same issue. Dealer tells me for **,*** over I get not only his first car, but my color choice. They got the first one 3 weeks ago. When I commented, he said I should have picked Orange.
At this point I would have started with Mary K pink!

 

Andre, I certainly think you would have a very one of a kind Challenger if you did go with Mary K Pink. However it probably would be worth a ton of money in the future as it would be pretty darn rare (as in not too many people would buy a pink car willingly)!

 

lol Brucer,

The pink would last long enough to wait until dark and drive over to a friends paint booth.

In California we see those damn pink cars everywhere. Ever see a new brown car? Seems all brown cars are old.... where do they hide them until they get old?
