How many of the new Chargers have you seen?

[KMPX2]

I have only seen 2 being driven. So where do all the dumb people live that are buying them?

[TeeWJay426]

I've only seen 3 on the street myself, and one more at the dealer. Based on my own observations, don't think much of anybody is buying them.....

[41husk]

I have seen a few in the St.louis area, about 20 probably.

[Dale The Bold]

I've seen the same one three times.  Always on my way to work.

[69bananabeast]

 they've probably got 20's on them as well or will have in the future   

I've seen   2 , one dealership and one on highway (only recognized the front, otherwise it was a galant)

[The Mad Scientist]

I've only seen two on the road.   It's a good thing those cars are quick, if they go fast enough, maybe the ugly won't catch up.   

[bull]

I've seen one at a car rental lot, two at a dealership and two more at the Woodburn Mopar Nationals. I have yet to see one on the street. DCX is probably fudging the sales numbers already.

[Plumcrazy]

Exactly one.

[blackcharger]

one on the street, and one at the Mopar trailer at the Nats, and there wasn't anyone EVEN close to it. A guy working at the trailer looked at me while I walked past,so I stuck my finger in my throat and gagged. he didn;t care for that.

[PocketThunder]

One on the road.  one at the steal-ership....

[ipstrategies]

One in the Canton area a couple of days ago.

[BigBlackDodge]

Uno................black.

BBD

[andy74]

8 on the road,and a dozen outside my window at the dealership

[MoparYoungGun]

I have seen a couple parked at various local delarships but other than that nothing.

[MichaelRW]

One on the road and two at the dealership. I was so unimpressed with the two at the dealership, I didn't even stop to look closer. Those cars have no "presence". Just looked like another bread & butter car.

[Shakey]

Lots.

[4forty]

Yikes!....that's a wholelotaugly

[6pkrunner]

About 7 on the road and 2 on one dealer's lot that have sat for the longest time. A silver one and black one.

[Silver R/T]

none yet and im not looking forward to it

[472 R/T SE]

My mom works at a way big Dodge dealer in DFW.  They sell 500 rigs a month, she said last month they sold 6 Chargers.  But the 300's sell as fast as they get them.  She's driving one as a demo now.  She asked for a Charger demo, so I'm waiting back for a report.

[Nacho-RT74]

Lots.

Is that AUSCHWITZ ? ( sp ? )


I hope it is, because that would mean they will be BURNED.

Oh NO, isn't... true was created by a Nazi, THEY WON'T BE BURNED... maybe was you who was inside THAT AUSCHWITZ and is the view from inside throught the grate, because your Charger is the one will be BURNED.

[General Ryan]

Up here I've seen 4 with plates, 2 driving and I believe 2 were rental cars.

I do however see a bunch taking up space at the dealerships.

Reminds me of the "Island of Misfit toys"!!!!

[RD]

2 sxt's on the road here

[Shakey]

Lots.

Is that AUSCHWITZ ? ( sp ? )


I hope it is, because that would mean they will be BURNED.

Oh NO, isn't... true was created by a Nazi, THEY WON'T BE BURNED... maybe was you who was inside THAT AUSCHWITZ and is the view from inside throught the grate, because your Charger is the one will be BURNED.

um, pardon?

[FastbackJon]

I think I've seen four on the road now. Almost got behind one in my '66 440 Charger when it was coming out of the dealership lot with a big test driver sign on the side of it. That would have been fun.

[TheGhost]

Lots.

Um..... what?


I've seen the same R/T on the road 3 times, and an SXT and R/T at the dealership, so I've seen 3 total.

[Nacho-RT74]

AUSCHWITZ... a concentration field where jews where burned on II WW... that pic it looks like some field like that... was a joke...

the new Charger was created by a nazi and he wont burn his creation, that's what I'm saying...Oh well... forget it
 

[69_500]

I've seen probably about 100 on the road since they first came out. Then again consider that at Carlisle I probably saw 30 of them.

[Charger_Fan]

I've seen exactly 3.
A few days ago I saw a black one in a parking lot.
A couple weeks ago I saw a red one driving the opposite direction.
And, the first one I saw was in the back parking lot at a car show held at a Mopar dealer on June 26th...it didn't look like it had been washed in 3 weeks.
This is the one from that show, the pic makes it look cleaner than it was.

[Dans 68]

One, and I'm driving it! (relax...it's a rental. Full story here http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,2141.0.html)

[TruckDriver]

I have only seen 2 on the road. There's 2 I been seeing at 2 different dealerships that are not selling. They been there ever since they were out to the public. That's the only good thing that happened in the hurricane.... A few of the Charger wanna be cars were wiped out.

[ChargerRob]

A neighbor just bought one, I haven't had a chance to laugh at him though. I'll have to do a burnout in front of his house. 

[JimShine]

I have seen 13 now, 6 of which on my trip back and forth between Connecticut to Maine. Most have been red, but I saw quite a few silver ones during the trip.

[Johnny SixPack]

20-25 of 'em now.

Saw my first in the middle of nowhere-Wyoming (silver).

Same with the second (white).

The rest were in Michigan (mainly the Woodward Dream Cruise, and the week leading up to it).

Quite a few "Daytonas" and even an SRT-8 or two there.

The night before the cruise found one guy and his black "06 parked with some people checkin' out the car.

Also saw one at the hotel I stayed at in Alabama (silver again).

Black is the only color that makes it palatable IMO.

Well, it's not that bad.

It just gets lost in the sea of sameness more often than not.

[Brock Samson]

  I took my Charger out Thursday for only the third time this year, went down to the "cheap" station, while waiting for the light to change at the intersection a '06 sedan tried to beat me to the pump (silver sxt), so guess who won...   
A bunch of kids waiting for the bus there & watching this cheered as I whupped it's sorry 4 door ass,.. he drove on...   musta been kinda embarrased..   
So any how, it cost me $47.oo to fill up with premium and the tank wasn't empty...   

[Chris G.]

I'll have to do a burnout in front of his house.  

It's well known that he could return the compliment.  


You guys are great! Keep the good stuff coming, especially you Strat. Kids cheering at the bus stop? That's a great story...err um fairy tale.  

[kab69440]

Not a single one on the road. There seem to be plenty available for purchase at the local dealer, though...

[topduarte]

Seen about 4 or five on my way to work the last month or so.

Saw my first one when I was driving my real charger last Friday.  I was going down the main highway and he was at the intersection at the light.  He just stared at me.

Well, 5 miles later as we both exited the same ramp, I was turning right and he was turning left.  I had to wait about a minute  to turn.  I looked in my rearview mirror and noticed two guys in a truck behind me were pointing to my charger and the bastard twin next to me.

I then hit it and took off with a smile on my face.

I could sweat that guy in the sxt next to me felt this small as everybody around him was comparing the real charger to the fake new one!!!

I Love It!!!

[Telvis]

I have seen two on the road. I have seen five or six on dealer lots.

[6670charger]

I've seen a few on the road near me.  Of the three I can recall, they have been over the course of the entire summer.

[69bananabeast]

one more count . Three total  . 2 driving one at wheelie and dealie

[RT DAVE]

about a dozen. 

[mustanghater]

I haven't seen one yet

[TheGhost]

I haven't seen one yet

Um... you would actually have to log off the computer, and go outside, to see one.

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

2 on road, one se and one srt-8 ,2 at car show one r/t and one yellow daytona r/t, one black r/t at mariners game and 35 at dealership oh an just 2 add i saw 2 orange daytona trucks on road-MATT

[Charger_Croatia]

Nothing yet and I guess I'll be the same luck in future. I don't want to see one anyway.
That so-called will never be imported here.

[Stormhammer]

erm, about 5

whats funny is that I saw one at a used car dealership already 

[69bananabeast]

3 months and already at the used dealer 

[TheGhost]

3 months and already at the used dealer 

Seen a Magnum at one, too.  Some people around here only keep cars for a few months.  I wish I had that kinda money......

[Brock Samson]

a few folks have stated they've seen SRT/8s,..  according to the dealer I talked to,.. in "charger" form they have a mid sept build date...

[Dave68RT]

i see them all the time, my job requires me to drive to dealerships and dodge is one. yesterday i saw a daytona r/t charger. it was orange and ugly. i took a pic w/ my camera phone but i cant get it to the computer. ugly bitches.

[MoparYoungGun]

a few folks have stated they've seen SRT/8s,.. according to the dealer I talked to,.. in "charger" form they have a mid sept build date...

I'm with you Strat, my Uncle wants one of the SRT-8's real bad but the salesman said they won't be out untill early next year .

[Silver R/T]

saw one today, theres nothing special about it, just 4 door car with raised rear quarters, to make it look like oversized welfare lady's ass

[69charger2002]

if we had only known. i would have bought them all and sent them to new orleans last sunday night
insurance would cover it, but the cars would all be gone.. oh well. many good ideas come too late right?
trav

[Johnny SixPack]

a few folks have stated they've seen SRT/8s,..   according to the dealer I talked to,.. in "charger" form they have a mid sept build date...

The ones I saw @ the Dream Cruise were probably demos DCX had out for product introduction.

For a modern car, it's not half bad.  

Soulless and homogenized, but slightly better than the other soulless, homogenized modern cars on the road.


Johnny

[Brock Samson]

i think we all appreciate that's it's a rear wheel drive V-8,... But,.. it's four doors and the wrong name, ad ya gotta look at it...
and those rock hard, gray interior pieces... 

[Stormhammer]

3 months and already at the used dealer 

worst part about it is that its in erm, less economically inclined part of outer atlanta

[xp29f8b]

I've seen 3 (2 at the Dealership and 1 on the road). Does anyone know if sales are going good or bad for them ? I hope horriblly

[TheGhost]

I hope horriblly

Why, so they stop making RWD performance cars altogether?

[TheGhost]

Charger sales so far:
May 1,841
June 4,354
July 5,495
August 5,222
Total 16,912

[xp29f8b]

I hope horriblly

Nope just hopeing that they flop like the GTO so the car makers can see that if they misuse a classic name on a car that resembles it in no way, it will flop and that we who care about the classics arent just a bunch of idiots. As far as the whole rear wheel drive thing, if thats all their going to offer as a rear wheel drive then I dont care if they stop making them, I'll keep my classic and go buy a Ford.

[Headrope]

and those rock hard, gray interior pieces...  

Rock hard interior pieces? The ones I've test driven had two-tone, leather interiors.

As for the sales figures... If those are actual figures it looks like Chrysler might be much smarter than many here give them credit for. Apparantly it is less than 90 cars away from selling 17,000 Chargers within only four months (a couple of thousand of which were sold before the Charger was commercially "unleashed), a year after selling butt-loads of Magnum Wagons, a year after selling butt-loads of 300s, a year after most everyone in the United States either purchased or owned a new car because of the zero percent financing offers that were part of the Sept. 11 fall-out; all while Ford and GM's sales and - most importantly- stocks ratings tanked.

[ChargerSG]

Here in Sweden i havent seen a single one, not even at the big exhibitions... i can guess that the Swedish Gov put some rules against them or something.

[Brock Samson]

feel the rock hard armrests,... thrill to the hard plastic dash cap!  PS what color were they?...

[yellowcuda]

I have only seen one...it lives about 3 miles from me.  We try to drive the blower Charger past it as often as possible.  It is black, though it has dealer tags so it may not be permanent there.
I had my truck in the shop at the dealership last week and checked out the R/T Charger.  Looks OK from the outside in black (4 doors are less obvious in black) but the inside is such a dissapointment.  They are just like my old Stratus...boring.

[Dodge Don]

Unfortunately I see them often....probably seen 20 so far on the streets....and the odd one at a dealership. Not counting the hundreds we saw at the assembly plant and the hundreds I've seen on transport trucks heading towards the US border. Be afraid.....
