Re: More info from Budman - Those with '09 SRT8 orders, read!

well the reason i say its the only fair thing to do is because the guys that ordered the 08's mainly did so just to say they have the first edition of the new generation. Not to mention, they wanted regardless of the options on the car. So ok, thats cool. Some of those guys were willing to pay a premium to be able to say that, others were not. So as a result alot of people will not be getting the car. Now on the other hand, you have us that waited it out for an 09 just to have a 6 speed. I dont think it would be fair for chrysler to let those 08 orderers jump in front of us unless they stick with what they had ordered originally. If they choose to keep their original order, just label it an 09, then so be it. Put them ahead of us because they were first. If they are wanting to swap to the 6 speed, they should IMO, have to fall in line. They could have easily dropped their 08 order and placed one on an 09. THey didnt because they wanted that limited first edition. I think if chrysler deals with this issue in any other way, there will be mobs of mad people. IMO the best thing for chrysler to do at this point, is say who is and who isnt getting an 08. That way those people can plan for an 09, maybe even a 2010. Chrysler should accomodate all orders, but we all know that wont be the case. There seems to be way more interest in the SRT's than any other model, so i would suggest just cutting out the SE's until all orders are taken care of. I would even go as far as cutting off all SRT orders from this point on, just to keep it the limited version.
