I'm curious where people are finding deals on challengers. I just went to the dealer with the largest inventory of them near OC, CA(with 16 on the lot) and they were marking all of them up at least $5000. They say their selling them, 8 in the last 2 weeks, but I just cannot see paying 41,000 for an R/T similarly equipped to a 2SS. And thats before taxes, etc. And it's not just this dealer either, all of the dealers in the area have similar markups.

Now, i'm not ruling out the possibility that they have the mark up there so that they can pitch MSRP as a really good deal, but regardless, its somewhat ridiculous.

I told them as I was leaving that I had my camaro on order at MSRP for 32,000(1SS), and they didn't appear to believe me. Oh well. If they can sell 'em with a markup in todays economy, more power to them I suppose.
