No, they were selling at sticker price. The idiot salesman did nothing but complain about their dismal sales and then told me I would have to pay sticker price. NOT! Especially not on a fully loaded car.

It was too bad as we were invisioning painting on the early style HEMI billboard striping which would have looked awesome on a Red/Green or Orange '09.

Yea that's crazy selling at sticker price. I am getting mine at invoice, which still allows the dealer to make some money because he is not eating his hold back.

That's alittle unfair to compare an 02 ZL-1 done by GMMG to a stock Challenger even if is an SRT8. I am going to get mine over to Hennessey and have them tweak it out to 650-700hp and then we can compare

"....though admittedly it was not fair to compare 425 hp with 600 hp"

I like it better than the Camaro. I saw a red Challenger last week driving in the snow with the stock mags.

I have to admit I like it alot also. I'm going to get either the Camaro or the Challenger next year for my daily driver and at this point I think I like the Challenger more. I have only seen pics of the Camaro, so it's not a fair comparisson at this point on time...
