I do not I like the faster shifts in the auto and I don't like the manuals in the Mustangs either. And as far as @vortecd I think it's great you love what you have. That's the beauty of life to each his own.
The auto is faster no question about it ,,my drag strip days are over..I'm not concerned with the.3/.6 seconds quarter mile times..simply put I've always had more fun with the M6...and with the Vipers as well...your right...to each his own...

I better be careful about posting that I'll off the SOB for $100K! Shit, I know you can't get anything performance for cheap right now, it is nuts.
We may need to buy another vehicle soon, I don't want to spend a bunch of cash, I think I'll just need to buy some common thing off someone's lot.

you could go on on about any car not being perfect. I have had mustangs and my Hellcat is better then all of them to me. Your perfect may be going around a corner fast, mine isn't. Your perfect and my perfect are probably different things. For me it always seems to make my cars faster so no car out there is perfect. So neither then speed (that none will have) my Hellcat is perfect. I can't think of one thing it doesn't have that it needs
Cars of the 80's..90's...and to the turn of the century couldn't hold a candle to the cars of today..especially new SRT vehicles...

Koons Dodge Tysons says no info on any Redeye's for 2023 but they are speculating very low production and be so lucky to get one. When I was there a guy just picked up a used Hellcat WB black Demonic interior. another guy took a @DGatzby car delivered to Delaware and only have a 2021 Hellcat Challenger Narrow Body Redeye for original MSRP.
The assembly plant has been busy for a good bit, I drove by it again today and they appear to be pumping them out like there is no tomorrow ;)

Other than these special final editions, and as long as there aren't any more chip shortages, my bet is they will be building all they can for 2023, even if they have to squeeze in an extra shift to fill the demand.

I cannot see it the manufactures are making more money than ever by controlling inventory. If yu watch my videos you will see all the car dealers have no nw inventory and are making a killing off new cars. Dodge would be fools to ramp up production and flood the market. But yeh they are fools being they have killed the ICE AGE.

Wow the 2021 Redeyes are low production as Hellcats as well. Hmm damn looks like I am going to pick up another RE Challenger and damn the Gold Rush was the lowest production 2021 car. I share Hellcat numbers for 2019 and 2021.

2017 Charger HC (once upon a time)

So how does this impact the Koons pledge of 8% off MSRP on new HC vehicles? The used market is just nuts

I am not sure and the Redeye as mentioned before is not available to order. Interesting times for sure and if you saw my video 2021 was an extremely low volume year in Hellcats. Plus dealers do not have new inventory and or getting new inventory like the old days. So is KOONS going to discount Redeyes that they claim are going to be harder to come by? Not sure on that thinking but Dodge has always been the ones to give away their top line performance cars and discount them and flood the market with them.

I think your forgetting the 2016 Model year when Dodge built way too many Hellcats and opened up poor man’s leasing for Hellcats. It was insane people were getting them for like $500 a month leases with little to no money down. And then add insult to pain to all us right out of the gate purchasers they start the Power Dollars rebates and Dealers discounting them. My 2019 Redeye the dealer took 8k off and then the Factory rebate was another 8k off. So 16k off a Hellcat😳. And now try to accomplish at his uh huh someone wake me up before I buy another Hellcat being used that’s worth the MSRP pricing.
