Nothing remarkably special but a nice New TT nonetheless.
I've seen this one a couple times before and it parks there regularly, this time i happened to have a camera. I like how these two photos came out, got me using Shadow and highlights in photoshop too.

I think it looks pretty neat with the RS4 style wheels too, i presume that was a factory option..

First Challenger in this thread? I don't care if it's not on the road. It's a Challenger and its sexy as hell.


Here's the kicker...

So that's $66,183.78 with tax. Damn.
 
$20,000 mark up? Jesus. I figured it would be bad but not that bad.
 
TheCracker I'm pretty sure that's the black SLR roadster I mentioned I saw at testing when the driver floored it through a roundabout exit, great sound.

Probably was. It was parked in a car park next to a MB hospitality area. Could be a MB big wigs car.

I heard when you buy an SLR you are inducted to the SLR club which includes invites to GP's etc.:) So who knows.
 
Ya I've posted a couple of them, just never in Orange. And yes it's ugly as hell not to mention huge!
 
I think it's smexy as hell. But yeah, it his hyooj. The rear bumper is quite chunky. I thought it would have had wider tires as well, but it's only got 245/45/20s. Not that 245 is small, but still. You'd think they would be a little bigger. I've got 245s on my car, lol.

The interior was really nice though. I didn't like the seat material though. I don't know what it was, but it looked like Alcantara. It was very hard to get into because you couldn't slide on it. The guages were awesome too. The backseats looked marginally usefull as well.
 
It's way too tall. Otherwise, the Challenger is beautiful, imo. But based on R&T's review, I would never buy one unless some serious improvements were made (an LSD and stiffer suspension, to name a couple). The automatic tranny sounds like crap too, so I'd have to hold out for the '09 gearbox.

^ The seats are leather, btw, atleast according to R&T.
 
So they actually mark it up by 50%? Crazy stuff.
It's a common trend in the US, esp. this year. A guy at the FM.net forums found a Mustang California Edition marked up to around $60,000.

Yep. You get a very expensive TAG Heur watch, and become part of a club. :)
 
Seen them, yeah, but I don't recall anyone posting pictures.
I actually posted a post about posting one a page back or so. In orange too. I couldn't post it at the time because I was at work, but I ended up not putting up the pic at all since it wasn't as "rare" as I thought it was.
