I have never understood the statement “There are too many of this out there” I have yet to run in to many of the variations produced… Further more, every time I pass a nice ride, it makes my day that much better.

Make note mighty members, soon everyone is going to be griping about how many Camaro’s are out there and that no one can tell the difference between a V6 and a V8…

The Challenger and Camaro are being built on opposite sides of Toronto about 45 min away from each other. I see one or two truckloads of Challengers on my way into work every day.

Is that the Camaro that was engineered in Australia or the modified Mercedes E-class (1996-2002) chassis that the Challenger is using?

A buddy of mine wants a R/T challenger, so i played 'broker' for him and inquired...


i checked 3 diff dealers in town... the cheapest of which had a bright blue R/T that was MARKED DOWN to 36k.

No wonder they dont sell.

The Zeta platform came from Detroit, however it was tested, developed and is widely used in Australia, seeing that the Aussie's like their RWD cars... Must be nice...

Like kevin said, PM me if you want info on how to obtain one for MSRP or slightly less (and thats real MSRP not dealer adjusted msrp).

Most of the challengers that are sitting on the lots for more than a week are caused by 1 of two things.

1 - the dealer wants a car to incite interest and orders.
2 - Markups

The dealer i refer people to has sold every one in less than 3 days of it being on the lot and STILL have people in line with orders. Thier first shipment of 6 (2 SE, 2 RT's, 2 SRT8's) they sold in 6 hours..

You can't have too many nice cars. I don't mind passing pretty cars regardless of make.

I'm guessing we're going to have as many threads claiming the V6 and V8 look alike as we did about the preproduction headlights.
