| Yeah, I know they've got them planned for the 09's, but it seems like all the guys who buy 08's (for way over MSRP) will be getting robbed. |

No, there were road cars. I'm pretty sure they ran in a Production class, so there had to be. Anyway, there were a fair number made and sold to the public. I think only 12 of the 427 cars were sold, though.

I started reading till I saw, "but why mess with an already good thing?"
Ferrari FXX
"SRT"
"AMG"
"M"
"SS"
etc.. are all messing with "already good" things. They are no different than any other company that way.
Take a good thing, and make it better. Doing so doesn't make the now better thing, make the original good one look bad. It's still good! <-- I know from experience people in this forum would say, "hard to read" so read it again or go back to school.

Well... Look's like there will be 3 model's and a standard transmission available.http://en.autos.sympatico.msn.ca/ne...umentid=8134839
Amazing such a low base price as well.
The SRT8 offers an available six-speed manual transmission or standard five-speed automatic transmission mated to the SRT-exclusive 6.1 L HEMI V8 engine that produces 425 horsepower and 420 lb.-ft. of torque. For 45k i might actually consider this car for reality now. |

My original oldraven account was giving me problems, (I couldn't edit posts or even view my control panel). Cyanide Ride made me a new account and renamed the old one to oldravenold.
Yep, the second year run will have a manual, and an LSD. |

The SRT is the only model available first year (2008).
And as far as I know, they will *ALL* be automatic. |

I saw a black one here in the West end although I didn't really notice the plate...
No rumble as it passed but guess that is expected being it is a 1st year car...most people probably won't go modifying them being they are "collector car" which makes me very excited to see the 2009 on the road that will have more "factory goodies"
:)
Oh yah a dealership in Calgary has two for sale...one black and one orange...the price is $75,000 and there is one in Quebec for $55,000...that seems more reasonable lol
Anyone heard if there is one at a dealership here in Edmonton? |

| And that is why Mopar is awesome. Factory warranty blower options. That is some serious power. :thumbup: |

Never going to happen... The "plymouth" brand name was discontinued years ago. |

From what I know the Cuda was made by Metal Crafters who have nothing to do with Chrysler...strictly a custom...not a concept. Unless Chrysler brings back Plymouth it seems sacrilege

Oh, I know. I wasn't posting that as 'the new 'Cuda'. He wanted a Plymouth, and I showed him the closest he would ever get. ;) |

Geo has posted some pictures of the Dodge Challenger in the "spotted" topic and I was just telling him that that isn't even a Canadian car...no 500 badge in the grille
Canadian Challenger 500 SRT8 is a Canada only and come fully loaded. There is supposed to be only 500 available but the service manager was telling me he has heard stories that there is a little better than 600 of them.
I've heard that the 500 authenticity comes with a $2000 price tag.
He's not sure for the reasoning of this maybe Chysler saw it as an easy opportunity to make a little more cash by playing a heritage/tribute card.
One thing for sure it's more collectible than #3608 out of 6400 that the U.S guys get to have
He also said a US model was spotted on a truck at a fuel station heading for Calgary...it was a black SRT...no warranty on exported vehicles.
