I really am having a hard time being a fan of chrysler at this point... ffs

Was at one of the dodge dealers in Houston last week.

Come to find out, the initial production run of hellcats will be 300 cars.


Well played 60k msrp... well played

20k dealer markup ftw

Hell id buy one for 80k...

I'd shit my pants if you can touch one for under 100k with all the hype these are getting... It's pretty ridiculous but then again, thats marketing for you.

I'm just curious how long they are going to hold out before they actually start normal production on these.

they are just as surprised at you that there are people willing to buy 300 of their vehicles.

they want to get a feel of how many of the 300 will break/shit itself/spontaneously explode so they can go off of those numbers to see whether it is reasonable to continue production.

smart move dodge, smart move.

I have no idea.

My parents have a 05 Magnum that every 30k miles, the tie rods are busting, the trans interlock broke so now the only way to put it in gear is with a knife, the hood latch snapped off, and the seats are naturally falling apart.

I had an srt-4 "given, highly modified" that's interior was ratty and fake as fuck.

I dont know why your a Chrysler man.. I just don't know.

Get your hands on one of those 300. 30 years at barret Jackson Inc 250k

my mom has owned 3 avengers she has bought brand new (04, 08, 14) and the only real problem she has ever had has been the a/c compressor quit working in the 08. the interiors are cheap as hell but she hasnt had any problems with them either. she did have a jeep liberty with the trail rated badge (dont know if that matters) and it got some rain water on the back seat one day that left horrible looking places on the fabric. that was a big let down with a name like jeep on your vehicle. i didnt like the way it drove either it was way to touchy

i think the liberty was like an 05 or 06 she got it after she totaled the 04 avenger.

i read somewhere that they are going to be doing away with the chrysler brand eventually, they are having a hard time competing in the luxury automobile market.

honestly, dodges stuff is just too overpriced and not high enough quality, feels like your paying mercedes prices for entry level quality.

the outsides look decent but the insides are definitely not luxury. but most of the automobile companies use cheap plastics made to resemble the real stuff. there are exceptions but that covers probably 80-90% of vehicles today on the road.
