Just saw my first pictures of a Tungsten Rallye Redline on a Dealers webite. Interior picture had a slot for the key fob (where the push button start should be). I thought key n go was standard on these cars? What am I missing??? Thanks!:SM030:

Probably just has the push start button cover popped off... no big deal. If it's not in the glove compartment the dealer should be able to get a replacement. They are only a few bucks..

Care to link us to that dealer page? I'll like to see the color combo myself

When I purchased my 2011 Chally it had never been driven before and we had to use the key in the ignition to turn it on. After filling out the paper work they plugged the car into the computer and loaded the car up and installed the push botton.

Try this. I was so pumped to finally see one in my color that wasn't a Dodge Media photo!

YES it has the push-button start, the cover is just popped off and they are using the turn-key option instead.

I have been looking at those pictures for the past week or so and never noticed that! You have a good eye for detail. :lookaround:

I do not like the color combo with the Tungsten. I am assuming those are the fake plastic chrome wheels. Anyway the interior is nice with the leather but the outside doesn't look good. I think the black would have gone better on that car with better 20'' wheels than those fake ones.

I'm not digging the wheels either. I don't think they're plastic, but the paint on the inside of the wheel looks completely different than the Dodge photos I saw (of course). These look like they were spray painted with a can of fire truck red Krylon! If you go back and look at the release photos they look like more of a Billet/Alloy color, not flat paint. Dissapointing and I'm kinda tick'd off. Not sure what to do.

Yea I have no love for these wheels. The aftermarket wheels people are buying for there Challies look better.

First, the photos were taken in poor lighting conditions. At first I thought the Chrome Clads weren't my thing, buy I happened on some and bought them. You really have to knock on them with your knuckles to know they are plastic. Compared to what I would have had to pay to Heritage wheels, I'm quite satisfied. But, yes, that red stripe ralley would look slick on a black car.

I agree about the chrome clads. Given a choice between real chrome plated aluminum (it is very hard to make it stay put apparently) and those I'd actually take chrome clads. I have read a few accounts by people that found out after having the car for a while that they were plastic covers - then started not liking them :). They look great, they are not heavy, and seem to stand up very well. Don't knock them until ... you want to know if they are plastic.
