What do you think Challenger will cost?
We might as well stay busy guessing until production/pricing news comes out,lol.
Bored Out's Updated GUESTIMATES for the 2008 Dodge Challenger.
I will start with the 2006 Charger model msrp's as a baseline
SE Base MSRP: (V-6) $23,245
SXT Base MSRP: (V-6) $26,395
R/T Base MSRP: (V-8, 5.7 LTR) $30,395
DAYTONA R/T Base MSRP: (V-8, 5.7 LTR) $32,895
SRT8 Base MSRP: (V-8, 6.1) $38,095
2008 Challenger
SE (V-6) = $25,000
SXT (V-6) = $27,500
R/T (V-8 5.7 LTR) = $32,500
SRT8 (V-8 6.1 LTR) = $42,500

i have no idea...but let me state again that one of my discussions with a DCX employee close to the design team said that they intended to price the challenger similar to the charger with the same drivtrain....but who knows.

I can live with those numbers and they are better than what I have heard before.

I would agree with those numbers in general but would not be surprised to see dealer markup take us to mid-high $40's on a 6.1L. Challenger will drive much more excitement than the Charger & those 1st in line will pay. I hate to pay retail on anything (I am one cheap S.O.B.) but will suck it up for this car. Hell, I might try to get a job at a dealership as a sales jockey (shudder the thought) for a week or two if that helped me get a 5% break on one.

Like your ideas, but ill have to say that unless the mustang Hikes up the prices for their cars, I would expect that dodge would lower its to compete. Dont get me wrong, I own a mustang(no bashing please)2005 and if dodge lowers the msrp I would then shoot for the V8 R/T. Also Im hoping at least for the people that buy the V6's that the try and reduce the weight because Ive driven in a Charger and those things are just heavy as hell, it was either that or the mustang. I like the 6 speed transmission, so Im in but it will be interesting to see how the do the numbers on this one.

RE: What do you think Challenger will cost?
We've got so much good news lately about production. I'm going to continue to be skeptical until I hear what the prices are. Quotes are coming in "just above mustang prices". that would be great but i'm not going to believe that because in my opinion, dodge puts high prices on there cars and why would they not want to make money on this car. That is all there exes keep saying anyway "business sense, business sense".
