I was told from my dealer that there is a 3 month waiting list for the Hellcats. Anyone get theirs faster?

Hey welcome, which dealer in Houston did you order yours from? And are you getting any deals? No one wants to deal in San Antonio and there is a 12 to 18 week wait for us.

No one is dealing in Texas.. I called 20 plus dealers. I ordered one from a dealer in Michigan. I refuse to pay a penny over MSRP. I would rather pay reliable transport 1300 to get it to me then to give it to a greedy dealer.

Congrats man. I remember when the latest Viper first came out dealers were wanting up to $10k over MSRP, a few years later they were heavily discounting them due to unsold inventory. This is going to happen with the Hellcat if the dealers continue to be greedy.

I think they are still offering like 15k off of the new vipers. It's the dealers that are messing up the game. Not dodge. People will just get turned off and get something else. I have a buddy that just gave up and is waiting on the new CTS -V. He dose not do well with dealers crap. They are making it hard on people who really want them.

The new CTS-V is looking real good. My wife and I are considering the ATS-V when her 335 lease ends at the end of this year.

Hi guys just join and placed an order for a Sublime Green. I went through about 10 dealers before finding the right one that would deal. Didn't get much off and most wanted AMV.

This is how absurd the market is.

I ordered mine in the last week of january. Was just told it will arrive next week (June 22-27) I will go public to say that i believe my dealership was one of the dealerships that was conducting themselves improperly. I had ordered a Sublime green automatic. 3 weeks ago i was contacted by another person (internet salesperson) and long story short (a lot shorter) that my car was not going to be available this year. By no choice of theirs, Dodge was "not building any more automatic Hellcats the remaining year. I was shocked as hell (pardon the pun) So they informed me that they would offer me the next of only three coming in that was a tri-coat redline red automatic, brass monkey wheels, all black fully loaded interior and red seatbelts. I had two days to decide to make the switch or loose the car all together. So i chose. Felt very frustrated, taken advantage of and deceived. So i figured to drive a awesome car for a year and if i wanted green that bad still, sell it (they are being sold left and right for 10-15,000.00 over what im going to pay) then re-order. So im still ready to go! Ive never been on a forum of any kind so hello all and be well! P.S. I own Kinney's Muffler Shop here in Ft. Worth and will help all you members with your cold air kit's and of course The "ULTIMATE" custom exhaust. here is my website: www.kinneysmufflershop.com

Welcome good to see more people coming on board. I wonder if yours was from a canceled order, but either way glad you got one.

They called 3 mo. ago and said if I wanted one this year if I switched to the manual I would have it this year. My order for the auto is still a D but probably wouldn't have it this year they said. would be a 2016 for the automatic.

Mine is the sublime with the black hood, black interior with the red seat belts and Brass Monkey wheels

That is odd how they (dodge) feel they can just change the rules like that.... Double strange, when i ordered mine, the black hood and brass monkey wheels were not available according to them... Very odd. The green is the ultimate hellcat color in my mind. Congrats sir !!
