Well, we all look forward to you winning that baby!! Please, do send us pics when you get it!

 

Worse case scenario, you could get the Sublime or Plum Crazy paint from Dodge and respray the car, but then who wants to spend $3-4000+ and disassemble and then reassemble a brand new car? [:'(]

I wouldn't be surprised if Dodge did a one-year run of Challengers in Sublime or Plum Crazy like they did for the Charger Daytonas.

 

Thanks, she's a 4 owner unrestored 60K mile car..original paint, interior and drivetrain... she's a keeper...

 

Here are the details on the B5 Blue Challenger from http://www.redletterdodge.com/

"CHALLENGER #43 CHARITY AUCTION

After nearly 35 years, the All-New 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 is revving up and getting ready to race off of the production line; but when the first Challengers hit the market, only one of them will be painted in legendary B5 Blue. And it could be yours.

From February 12-22, 2008, bid on this one-of-a-kind vehicle. The winning bidder will drive away in the #43 Challenger painted in B5 Blue, with black hood stripes, featuring a 6.1L SRT HEMI® V8 engine and a five-speed AutoStick® transmission.

All proceeds will benefit the Victory Junction Gang, an organization dedicated to enriching the lives of children with chronic illness, founded by Kyle Petty, in honor of his late son, Adam.

THE WINNER WILL ALSO RECEIVE:

* Two VIP passes to the Dodge Challenger 500, May 2008, complete with airfare and lodging
* A meet-and-greet session with Kyle Petty
* Inclusion of a Dodge Motorsports prize pack with vehicle delivery."

 

I mean if you can't have plum crazy I think this is a good alternative choice. I'm just wondering what it will go for. It's good that Dodge has this opportunity to promote the Challenger and raise money for charity. If i had the money, honestly, I would go for it. I'd rather have my car come in the color than go through the trouble of a paint job on an already nice looking vehicle.

 

maybe in 09 they will have more than 1 in this color.

Auction started today... no bids yet.

Any guesses as to how high this might go? 250k? 400k?

 

Challenger #43 goes for US $228,143.43

 

dang, I would have really enjoyed participating in this auction and had even stated earlier that what was good enough for the King was good enough for me. Well, unfortunately, this is way outta this clown's league. Yikes, last night it was at $151k, so that sure didn't even come close.
