Got a new toy........big change in my garage!

[69bronzeT5]

I have to do some sacraficing to have made this happen but it's for the best. I decided a few months ago after a lot of thought that I've spread myself out too thin with cars and just have too much on my plate. So that being said, some of my cars are being sold. My Magnum is up for sale, my Mustang is sold and being picked up by my friend in the next month and my Duster will be up for sale in a while. I decided to cut my collection down to my Charger, my Coronet and one other car........DRUM ROLL.......





I've wanted one since they came out and I've been working my ass off since trying to get one. Over the last 5 months my desire to get one got worse and since then I've been driving my girlfriend up the wall talking about it. Last night, my dream finally came true and I haven't been able to wipe the smile off my face!!!





It's a 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8. 6.1L HEMI with the 5 speed triptronic automatic transmission. I originally wanted a 6 speed manual but I got such a good deal on the car, I couldn't say no. It's # 2036 out of 6400 made in 2008. Full touch NAV unit, sunroof, heated seats, Kicker sound system...

Half your luck. It's a beautiful car. Keep on smiling!  

[BIGBLCK11]

  Great score!  That has always been my favorite color combo.  While thinning the herd, you can sell me the coronet too.

[polywideblock]

very nice car 

[r4daytona]

Very nice.  So you going to now park it in a humidity controlled room on jack stands and then bring it out at Mopar Nats in 2040!   I'd bet you'd win the survivor award.

[PocketThunder]

[dads_69]

The new Challengers really are nice cars, but in '08, the dealers really harpooned people on them. I know of one guy that paid 5 grand over sticker & another, who is a real chump, that paid a whopping 15 grand over sticker!

[bill440rt]

Nice car!

Friend of mine wanted a manual but 'settled' for a 08 auto because of the so called collectability / numbered first year and overpaid the sticker for it.      


Meanwhile...  good job Cody.  Congrats 

[Ghoste]

Awesome Cody!!

[maxwellwedge]

Nice - bought one new in '08 out of North Carolina - Prices in Canada were stupid over sticker at the time. Yours looks like one of the ones built for the US - The Canadian 2008's had "500" on the grille where yours says SRT. I have only put 1400 miles on mine - but it is a lot of fun - great cars. Congrats 

[hemi68charger]

nice car....... I totally understand about having too much on the plate... Whew........ Good luck on the other "keepers" and have fun.....

Congrats Cody !!!! Your nicest car yet !!!! Good idea,dump the ones you say,and start planning on doing something with that charger,it's been way to many years of your dream car sitting around idle.
I bought an 09 R/T new,6spd,sunroof,chrome wheels,etc.After only 7 months the excitement wore off for me,ntm,i didn't drive it much because of my job I couldn't take it to work,so with only 1,700 miles on it off it went.Good thing,as I really didn't lose that much,but would have if I kept it this long and tried to sell now.

[chargerboy69]

Nice score Cody.  Looks well taken care of. 

[ACUDANUT]

And the Price?  Drum roll

[F8-4life]

[Ram07]

That's cool, what, how old are you to have all these cars? Damn....what did I do wrong....nice score!

I've never seen a Challender 500....it's a Canadian thing? Lots of Challengers, just never noticed that.

[Finn]

[ACUDANUT]

DRUM ROLL....The price. ? It sure is nice when you live with your parents huh.

First of all, the price doesn't matter. Second of all if you really must know, I don't live with my parents. I live with my girlfriend and pay rent. I got this car by working my ass off at two jobs because I really wanted it, not by no handouts.  But thanks for the input asshat.   

[FlatbackFanatic]

Nice score Cody!!

[Brightyellow69rtse]

looks great! ive been drooling over the challengers since they came out. ill get one someday 

[mauve66]

Congrats!  Did you break it in yet?   

Broke in the brand new back tires last night

[WHITE AND RED 69]

Very nice! The Challengers are sweet!

[Fitz73Chrgr]

Nice fleet you've got nowadays.  I'm sure you've posted it, but what are your plans for the Coronet?

[odcics2]

 

[69bronzeT5]

Thanks everyone!!  Here are some more pictures Fitz, I'll PM you the details

[Charger-Bodie]

Maybe you can do a model of your Duster to remember it by!

[FJMG]

Congrats Cody! When I first rode in the new Challenger I could not believe the headroom in the back seat! Rather incredible for a two door.
Good idea in getting the US version, MUCH more legible speedo, that is the only complaint I have of my 06, the Canadian version flips the numbers on the speedo but not the increments (4 increments over 30 km/h) and renders guessing the speed almost impossible. I have to drive with the digital readout constantly!
Be careful though, you cannot outrun a two-way! I am amazed that in the nine months we have had it I still have not lost my license!

[TUFCAT]

That's my favorite color combo...next to B5 blue.  I love it!!  GOOD FOR YOU!!   

[skip68]

SWEET RIDE COCO.     

[Patronus]

Well well, da brone done good! Good on ya kid, park next to me anytime.

[TUFCAT]

Your in the great white north... and them pics, while argueably great, aint white.    No way them pics are from last night. Lets see todays paper on the widow with you at the wheel.

Professor Tuffy did some homework...  My forensic results are in....  

I produced these results using the actual detail of Cody's hands in the gas cap reflection.  

I've compared the "reflection photo" hands and fingers against my database and I'm able to verify with 99.275% accuracy...

It's his car!
