Re: Dodge Challenger to be Low Production V8

I clicked on the DCX blog and could not believe all of the Challenger news! I have been searching for any shred of information for months when I came across your "treasure chest" of news. Thank you!!

I don't think that many readers of this forum bothered to check it out. Some of the exciting news was:

*DCX will be bringing back the retro Plymouth Barracuda design for a "limited historical production run."

*Initial production of the Challenger will begin with 30,000 or possibly 50,000 units at the Brampton plant.

*Following this, 3,000-4,000 SRT8 models will appear and "will sport the next SRT's top Hemi brand hot engine."

*The SRT and SkunkWerks Engineering team is working on a "unique model" above the SRT version. It will "be in line with performance cars north of $80,000 range but be affordable...you are looking at a limited production run about a year or so...this HO model will require a hefty down deposit and adding your name to a waiting list months prior to production."

* A hard folding top convertible version will be offered within 24 months of initial production.

*A myriad of options from power train to optional gearing will follow these variations."
