Just Ordered A New Challenger R/T

I agree. Just wish there had been a performance bump to it as well. But they took the easy way out and just offered the big motor as well.

The 5.7 with a different cam/intake/exhaust probably requires new certifications and such. Why spend the time and money (and then pass the cost on) if the 392 will give the customer more anyway.

I've always been more on the performance end of the scale, so an R/T for me would be a 6M with the Performance Handling Group and NAV (so I can use the Performance Pages). Probably spring for the Convenience Group just for the piece of mind, but the Plus Package and the rest of it don't add anything for me. Trouble is, my basic R/T spec's out at $42.9K while a no option SP is only $45.7.
Funny thing on the cup holder saga, I put a fire extinguisher in the passenger door one, it fits perfectly! Mine is a 15 Scat. I just took it on a 500 plus mile trip and averaged 24mpg. I love it but we plate and insure seven cars and are thinking about thinning the herd. With right at 25thousand miles I might do pretty good selling it. Wife says it or the Cuda has got to go. The thing is just so darn fun to drive and comfortable that I am not sure on selling it. It has the performance package and all the cool stuff. Man is it fun to drive. And you know it is Sublime! Hah!
