Man....ordering a 2019 turned out so far to be a really wise choice for me! I am glad I was able to get my car ordered late in the year so I knew what was what....

Dodge better pull some kind of rabbit out of there hat trick or the 50th anniversary year is going to go down as the worst sale year since the Challenger was brought back in 2008.That was 7051 built that year

So the rebates are gone now? they're about to be murdered unless they get their heads out. Vetrari, GT500, and other somewhat reasonably priced cars are going to walk away with a significant segment of the market (after the initial craze is over).

Yes but that is only on 19MY . Maybe they can save face buy putting it on the 20MY also. Wouldn't that be nice?

If they don’t open up PD for 2020, I would think sales would flat out stink. Especially after the C8s start showing up...

A Corvette C8 is not a Challenger and really do not think it will eat into Challenger sales.Just a different car all together. IMO

I agree that it is a very different car. SRT fills a different niche, but on the other hand, 0-60 times have a way of blurring those lines.

Yes.We will see but the 2020 Corvette is sold out so the flipping game is on now.I bet once these cars start getting into peoples hands the love/hate will start to really show.

Interesting. So 50 years and no advertising no special package, no nothing huh?
I believe Dodge limited the 50th anniversary packages to the lesser priced trim levels since the 50th package adds 5 to 6K to the sticker price.

Hard to believe that the 50th anniversary Challenger would not include it's premium Hellcat model. Very poor marketing . What is 5 grand on a 75K and up car.

They are making 40,000 Corvettes. Anyone paying any markup is a fool.

The GT500, that is where the flipping game is at. I guess limited to 5,000 cars.
Then again, im curious to how many RE's have been sold. I wouldn't be surprised if that number is under 4,000

Yep, I would never pay MSRP, so I’m looking at two cars. An F8 REWB with carbons and sepia interior- if they carry PD over to MY 2020.

If no PD, I’m going to look at a C8 in 2021 and see what SRT comes up with for the new Challenger. Hopefully, they stick with the supercharged V8...

2021 is a long way off . I can not believe that Dodge is not going to surprise us. My fingers are crossed for a very special car.

Not so much poor marketing as it was target specific marketing for those that cannot buy the high end trim models.

Throw that 6k 50th pxg.on a shaker scat pack and you are almost 60k and could get a 19MY Hellcat with PD rebate. If I were spending 60k it would be a Hellcat.

The problem dealers are going to have with remaining stock is that most of it is at the opposite ends of the spectrum. Either base, no option cars, or $80k+ priced cars. Not much in the middle for each trim. And way too many Octane Chargers....no one wants Houndstooth when the base model gets leather!!!!!!!!!(are those enough exclamation points?)

Oh yes, one other thing; Black is a popular color, but seriously...waaaaaaaaaay too many black cars produced.
But if youve been following PLMCRZY's config trees over the years, they are also the top selling color, hence the over abundance of them.
