Default HAS ANYONE BEEN ABLE TO ORDER A 2009 YET?

Since Ive tried over 43 dealers to buy or order a 2008 Challenger and been totally unsuccessful, or unable to get anywhere with these greedy Dodge Dealers( my opinion only), Ive decided to try and order a 2009 but not getting anywhere there also. So I'm asking anyone in this forum to please post when they were able to order a 2009 so that I'll know when dealers are taking orders for the 2009 Challengers. Thanks to all in advance for letting me know. A fellow member, Fatcat

They have to put the 2009's on sale soon. I figure if they can produce up to 75-100 cars a day on a good day, then the 6,500 or so 2008's should be built before the end of June. They gotta start having the pre-sales for the 09's by the end of may i would think.

I stopped in to my local Dodge dealer and talked with the sales manager. He said they have no news or dates as of yet for the 09 ordering. He said that from the looks of the delay with the 08's and whatever mystery Chrysler is swirling over the whole Challenger world, it will most likely be very late June early July before you can order. I told him I had a handful of cash with Challenger written all over it if he was willing to order one for me...no go.

Some dealerships are taking deposits on the 09’s but that is it. I have been told that prices and ordering will open up sometime this month and the very first 09’s will be built at the end of July..

Hopefully we will get more 2009 pricing information by Memorial day. What a nice holiday treat.

Yesterday was the first day you could order anything 2009 from Chrysler and they only made Aspen and Durango available thus far.

Just left my Dodge dealer today. They are only guessing, but thinking the 09's will be orderable near the end of June.
My dealer really wants to help, but is just not making much headway within the Corporation.
They are "disappointed" in the new CEO, they think his secrecy around the Challenger is causing Dodge to have a black eye. They firmly put the blame of lack of information on him.
