Those of us that had our orders filled should be greatful we aren't getting a phone call this week.
I know of a few guys who ordered when I did a YEAR AGO who's orders still haven't been picked up
Going to be some pissed mopar fans this week

On the plus side it would seem that 2015 model year will have much lower production numbers than future years

Mine is "scheduled" to be delivered to the dealer today. After almost a year, I guess I should consider myself lucky.  :2thumbs:

Glad you got yours Chris and glad I got a ride in it. That was some ride, I was actually trying to use the brake from the passenger seat a couple times, haha! The sound of it when you opened it up was unreal!

Still getting the wires and a couple other things fixed on the charger, I hope to have her back in about a week. Taking the MSD system out and replacing it with one from FBO in Oregon.

As it is almost August 1, they are ready to launch 2016.    At some point, the people still in line will want a 2016 model and not a one year old model at full price, plus.   If I read it correctly, those whose orders are cancelled will be able to buy a 2016 at the 2015 pricing.

I'm looking forward to seeing some pics of the car in its new home back on the road.
Very happy it found a good home with you Dave
I've been thinking of putting some depends in the glovebox of the hellcat for my passengers :D
LOL
In a couple weeks I'll be running it on a 3/4 mile runway with 1/2 mile timed runs, now if I could just learn how that gearshifter works I might be able to get a decent time.... J/K LMAO

Sublime Green and Phantom Black are replaced with Plum Crazy Purple and GoMango Orange . Rumour has it that B5 goes away halfway thru the 2016 model year . All other colours from 2015 are carried over.
2016 models go on sale in U.S. on August 10th ;) no date given for Canadian cars yet...
