bit by the Hellcat bug...what would you do?

[69redrunner]

Is there any word from Chrysler as to whether or not the Hellcat will go beyond the 2015 model year?

I ordered one and it's waiting for a rail car for shipment ot AZ.

You ordered one & it came in, or bought one off the lot? My order is still in Hellcat limbo.

I don't really know. The VP of SRT did say they will build as many 2015 as are ordered.

I heard from a friend in Brampton that they are planning for 2017 already.

Man o man...I would love to get a Hellcat. Problem is, I would have to sell the roadrunner and my daily driver 06 charger to free up some down payment money. I'd still have to finance probably $20-30K.

What would you do? Go for the cat or keep the bird?

I daily drive my '09 R/T 6 speed Challenger & I don't think I would use 3x the power for 3x the cost of the car. I don't nail the Challenger that much. It's not as fun to hot rod as my '69 Road Runner & it just feels like a newer car in it. Definitely not worth 60k+.

I would love a Hellcat Too!

I was looking for a nice "B" body - had a couple many years ago and am still partial to the '72 Satellite Sebring Plus as well as the '74 Dodge Charger SE. Like I said, I was looking about 6 months ago for a new toy - wanted a "B" body and came across............................... a 2005 Dodge Ram SRT-10 - 25,000 kms on it, mint shape, red, absolutely gorgeous truck. Still have the bug for the Hellcat but I want to wait a bit and see. It would be nice to have 1212 hp in the garage - STOCK - but.......... they are going to make a lot of them. They made less than 10,000 SRT-10's over 3 years. I think they'll make more Hellcats than that so...............The SRT-10 was/is a better (ahem) investment(ahem).
My $0.02

Make that 99%. I say get the Hellcat. :tongue3:

98% I said I'd get one in a NY minute too,
if I had the room & $$$, but I wouldn't sell my RR just to get one...
so maybe 98.5%....LOL

Black hood orders delayed?

I thought the Hellcat was cool but greedy dealerships are marking them up fourty thousand dollars over msrp. Disgusted and will never buy. Also will look at anyone driving one as a fool with more money than common sense until the price drops. Why do dealers do this. It just makes regular guys see that dealers don't give two sh@#$ about the customers. Also we paid these pricks bail out money to save there a$$#$. Tesla sad to say is the only one that paid it back. I am tired of seeing hard working Americans being bent over. This is the thanks we get for saving them. I understand paying a premium to be one of the first to own one but a 40k markup sounds more like rape. Keep the bird. It will continue to appreciate over time. I seriously doubt the Hellcat Will do the same.

 

[Durandal25]

keep the bird....preowned low mile Hellcats will soon appear.

 

[droptop]

Keep both current cars, and make the 06 Charger an 850 horse Hellcat killer. You know there will be a lot of cocky guys that think there new Hellcat is untouchable in a race. Here kitty kitty kitty.....:3gears:
