Enthusiasts will seek these out because they know what it is. At $44k they will sell every darn one of them.

They will struggle to sell anything that is going to touch 50K after tax, title, and GG Tax, without a customer being able to see it in person. After the few die hards who know about this car buy theirs, this will become an afterthought. Maybe if this is a one year run only they will sell all 10K units, but this car needs to bee seen to get the average customer to shop, buy it. Its not like it has drop dead sexy looks that will drive the masses to it like the Camaro did when it was released. Its not like it is at a great price point.

This car competes with the Charger r/t in specs, and the Charger SRT8 in price. Good luck with that.

It is a few grand away from a Stingray. Think about that for a second.
