A few facts.

I got the 2015 RT Plus with the auto trans with paddle shifters and it is white.

Pictures coming soon, having trouble getting them from my phone to the computer.

Congrats on the new spYder!! I bought a 2014 RT Limited a week or so ago in Pumpkin. Still at the dealer until the salt is gone from the roads. Glad you got to ride yours already.

Sorry I've been deceiving you all. I did not get a new Spyder. I purchased something I've always wanted since their return from the seventies. A new Dodge Challenger RT.

I had a 'Cuda during the early seventies and have very fond memories of my wife in that car. So it's only fitting that I would pick me up a Challenger.

You got me on that one Mark. I came home and excitedly told my wife. Now she's laughing at me. Good one. Congrats on the new ride. You deserve it!!!

Thanks everybody. I have been dreaming of a Challenger for awhile now, it was time to make it happen.

Kevin, I'll have to take a drive to GR and meet you two at the Golden Corral. Gun Lake is on my way there, maybe win my retirement.

Time to move this thread to the Off Topic Board.

Which engine???? :shocked:
:2thumbs:

Logic and reason took over and I got the baby HEMI, 5.7L 375hp.

The Hellcat was never a consideration (6.2L Turbocharged 707hp and a stating price of $59,000.00 :yikes:).

The one I was seriously looking into was the Scat Pack Challenger. It is a base RT with a SRT 392 HEMI that puts out 485hp with 485 ft lbs of torque. Premium gas every gallon for the rest of my life, less mpg's and future reckless driving tickets, I had to say no. The one I ended up with is more than capable of getting me in trouble. I know you are supposed to take it easy the first few hundred miles, but yesterday I passed a car and hit triple digits in short order.
