Thanks to HemiDakota, we have the following news:
DaimlerChrysler AG Centric News Blog, dated December 7, 2006, had these interesting items:
*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."
