Question 2013 Challenger colors-Terrible?

What happened to Hemi Orange? Did they discontinue it. Per "Build it your own" it says it has been discontinued.
There is no yellow available unless you get the top dog SRT-8 Yellow Jacket.

The redline 3-coat is stunning in person, and I think the granite cyrstal is pretty sweet. I think more of the impact colors come out later in the model year.

Thanks for jarring my memory I do remember something about dates relative to colors. I just took it upon myself to check out that build your own Dodge website.

Every now and then, some folks need

Dodge is notoriously slow in keeping their websites up to date. Even when the late 2013 colors come online, the website won't have them up until weeks after the fact.

I have a 2012 Classic RT in Stinger Yellow with factory White stripes. Technically that color was only availble in the Yellow Jacket. I think (this is just my opinion not based on any fact), that they do a large run of cars in a certain color at one time to cut pruduction costs. For whatever reason, at the end of the Stinger Yellow run, they through in some regular Challengers. Lucky for me. Yellow is my favorite color, but the Yellow Jacket was just to expensive for me.

Yellow is just as hot as the Hemi Orange.

Hey thanks! Orange was my second choice. I saw a yellow classic RT near where I work and that's when I went to my local dealer to see if they could get me one with the whites stripes. They could and they made me a great deal on my 2005 Magnum RT AWD.

You got lucky on that yellow color or YJ model paint color.
