Anyone game for bashing the Charger?
I think you are correct. DCX management isn't convinced this is a good business bet. To be honest, from a strict business standpoint I'm not sure I'd build it either. At the end of the day it's a toy. I really don't think (but I could be big time wrong I admit) that they have any real intention of making this a mass market kind of car, especially if they are having the kinds of logistics issues you indicate. Any time you build fewer of something it has to be more expensive in order to make a profit. At any rate, I think we are many months away from any announcement, good or bad.

As far as Charger bashing - money talks and mine walked when they hung 4 doors on "it". If they come out with a 2 door version vice the Challenger I'll reconsider. I also like the Firepower but no idea what $$ range it would be in.
