Anyone who buys a hellcat for $200k is an idiot (not saying it's gonna sell)

I remember from Top Gear UK, San Fransisco saw some serious inflation with the Challenger when it first came out. From what I remember, it was around $50k for one, I forget what trim line it was though.

I'm pretty sure even at that price it's still the cheapest new car with over 700 Hp. Not counting tuners though.

That is only $33.79 per pound. A Hellcat at standard price is a mere $13.52/lb.

So, in that case it probably cost little bit more than I thought it did.

Well, hammond get 15k markup because doge won't provide TG with Doge Challanger, so he has to buy one with 15k markup just because he's hammond.

Haha, The TGUK tax. Silly Dodge, If I recall correctly it's because they badmouthed them at one point.

I thought the mark ups for the 50th Limited Edition Mustang at 100K were bad... This somehow manages to bring it up a whole other level. Some dealerships are just nuts.

i thought that i read that dodge was going to be aggressive at dealer mark up gouging on these because they want them to get into the hands of real people. I suspect that it this is true the rep is going to have talk with this dealer to the tune of "if you want to keep selling these youde better knock it off"

Go easy on the Dealer. They're just protecting the consumer.

From what? Their disposable income, of course..
