I am soon retiring, was thinking of getting a Tesla at $60,000. But I am also a closet fan of this Dodge, but at $80,000 it is above my budget.

My wife yelled at me when I showed her the pic, because she considers the Challenger as a “ghetto car” driven by “stupid people, trash”.

My dream was crushed - not only after being yelled at, but when I saw the $80,000 dollar price tag. $20,000 too much for me.

oh well... one day this car will resell for $300,000 plus in about 15 to 20 years from now.

But I would be dead by then, likely. I am 61 but in bad health. Probably be dead by 81. Actually, that would be a reason to BUY this car because I would have my toy.

But my wife is in charge of these things. Not me.

Life goes on. Until you are dead.

The “normal” v8 Challenger R/T is a great deal.

Sorry but they won’t be buying one of these! They get the 300’s and the Chargers.

You can't get new one for that. The cheapest Model S is north of $80K. Even if you get the full tax credit, it well above $70K.
