  so cool to have my first challenger sighting in real life today east of downtown bellevue, got a cell phone pic,    ya, it is cool,  eat it camaros and mustangs.        Hopefully I will have one someday.


Why would you want anything else?  Just give me a Charger and I'll be happy.

I got to check out one over last weekend, THAT is a NEAT car. I really like that, now where IS that lottery ticket?........

I saw two at a dealership - an orange SRT/500, and a silver SE, with a 3.5 V6.
Then a black SRT/500 one at an outdoor cruise/show last night.

All in the space of a half hour. This brings my personal total to four.

MSRP for the SE was 30K, after 6K in options and shipping.
The orange SRT was listed at 69K.
The black SRT was being shown by it's new owner, a man 70 years of age.
1968 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S 340 convertible

1971 Dodge Charger R/T 440 auto
1972 Dodge C600 318 4 speed ramp truck
1972 Dodge C800 413 5 speed
1979 Chrysler 300 T-top 360 auto

dang,   so that SE had six grand in options, and bare bones model is 24K,   and the friggin'  SRT package is really more like $46,000.00 more than basic Challenger model?  :o,          the sales guy says,  "You want air conditioning?  You want premium sound system?  power mirrors?   SRT package,"?
  how much is that?    "A/C,  stereo, and power mirrors included in SRT,  ya, for only a measly 46,000 THOUSAND EXTRA on top of basic model price!!!,      guess a mustang cobra or shelby is more, or a vette Z 06,

      Can you get a basic model but with the biggest engine as an option I wonder,  that's what I would do, then fix it up a little aftermarket
