Hmm I don't know about that. We'll obviously have to wait and see, but.... According to Dodge, (mfr) estimates says the Challenger R/T does 0-60 in 5.5seconds and the quarter in 13.8 or 13.9 seconds... It also weighs 4000lbs.
The current gen Mustang GT does 0-60 in 5.1/5.2 seconds and does the quarter in mid 13's...
I'd say the Mustang GT will still be quicker than the Challenger R/T, and I think it's weight is what's really affecting it.
Especially seeing that the Challenger R/T with the 5.7L Hemi in it has 375hp and 404lbs ft. lbs of torque w a 6spd manual. But going off those #'s it doesn't look like it's helping it much.
The SE's and R/T's that are on the lot ARE going for sticker, or below sticker now... There isn't a markup on them. I'm not sure about the SRT-8's because 1) I didn't look at them, 2) I only asked him about the SE's and the R/T's
But yes, most were purchased by the dealers initially and were marked up to hell, but a lot of people also did pre-order them.
