Dealer ADMs on the Demon170

[Demon1]

I called more than 30 dealerships yesterday. Dealer ADMs are insane. Even dealers in Boonieville, USA were minimum $50k over MSRP. Most were $100k+ ADM and up to $200k ADM. Dodge screwed us by letting dealers run the show again. They could’ve/should’ve seen this coming with the ICE age going away. Maybe Dodge thinks we‘ll never buy another Stellantis product so they don’t give a crap. Tim Kuniskis said MSRP buyers will get first production and some may not get their car if it’s not built by 12/31/23. Other than a few with insider connections and dealers themselves will be first produced because nobody else is getting MSRP. No dealer is going to let an allocation/order get in late to run the risk of not getting built. Regular buyers are the only ones that might not get built.

I plan on never buying a Dodge product again. Let the EVs be what bankrupts them.

There's an old saying about wishing in one hand and crapping in the other. Let's see which one fills up first.

They're playing the bidding game. I'm not a player at all in this fagazi.

 

[DavidKFla]

At the end of the day if this car is what you really want, then go for it. After all, it's only money.

 

[Bowtie Guy]

Take the fucking Canada would give you

Base car 135K
Luxury tax over 100K is 20 percent = 7K
142 X 13 percent sales tax
160K base price

Add carbon fib wheels & an Ejection roof you at at 200K

WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I need a beer to swallow that

Being a original Demon owner, I received two SRT Demon Owner VIP package invites from Dodge. I called a buddy of mine, who has a hellcat, and talked him into going to this once in a lifetime event. We flew out from Boston on Saturday and went to the track before it opened on Monday. The VIP treatment turned out to be a free general admission ticket, value $25 dollars and a $25 dollar gift card for drinks and lunch. We ordered a burger with fries and a drink which came to $28. I was so embarrassed I told my buddy I would cover his cost of this VIP trip. $1500.00 I spoke to several other Demon owners who couldn't believe that Dodge considered This VIP treatment. We thought that maybe Dodge was going to award the Original Owners who came to the event a coupon which would allow us to purchase a Demon 170 at MSRP from a dealer of our choice without effecting their allocation. Well that didn't happen. When we got home I tried to find a car by calling over 100 different dealers, the lowest price I could find was $100,000.00 over sticker. Dodge still has time to do the right thing as far as the original owners are concerned because the order window doesn't open until 3/27/23 but I not going to hold my breath.

Normally yes, but in this case I wish I had been totally wrong & Dodge had stepped up to give the enthusiast base a shot at getting one.
Instead, it's another turkey shoot ....................

That is never going to happen in this world. He with the largest checkbook wins.
