OK here is some info that my sources are telling me. They are still working two shifts and building about 500 cars per shift = 1000 a day. When they were running three shifts they were building 1368 cars a day. They are building a challenger every 20 cars. It slows the line down to do any more as they work the bugs out due to the roof line, windshield, car length, drive train and different SRT setup than Charger and 300 it takes more time and they want a quality car going out. They have released a couple of hundred but did not know if they have shipped. I still could not get any info on how they are doing the numbers. Also they are very happy with there new union contract they say they got a better deal than the UAW did in the USA.

Hey Budman whats the chance of geting us the badge numbers off say all 200 or so challengers they built . IM sure we could find some way of repaying you .Really any badge numbers would be great .I was hopeing for the 07 badge number but we can all dream [sm=ts.gif]. Thanks for all the help


Budman thanks for the update know thats out of the way .[sm=rant.gif] Thats only about 50 cars a day in challengers being built . Someone needs to figure out the proublems and start cranking 500 cars a day so we can have our cars .

Easy now billionaire... take it easy on the kid... he is obviously excited... you can tell by the way he is shouting and not pausing to take a breath. Under the rare condition of spotting not 1... but 2 challengers, I think I can understand...

Hi everyone, i'm new to the forum and this is my first post. I'm from Ontario Canada and here is what I know to date:
I have a 08 Challenger on order, and I was put on a VIP list and guaranteed one of the first 500 cars.
I believe it's only available in Canada, but my Purchase Agreement shows the option: AA9 Challenger 500 Group.
The SRT8 500 is only available for 2008, and includes a certificate of authenticity, carbon fibre hood striples, Kicker 13-speaker audio, 6-disc DVD radio, UConnect, alarm, and special grille badging; it's a limited edition available only in Canada.
It did cost me an extra $2,000.00 for this option. (oh well, gotta go for it)
I'm told by someone high up at Chrysler Canada in Windsor Ontario that I will have my car by mid to end of June.
Also, have any of you seen the new Team Challenger Hats and Jackets? My dealer has them displayed and they are sweet!

Anyways, that's about it for now, i'll keep you posted when I find out more.

Love the Site!
