Demon 170, will any be 100k, probably not

[Speedy!]

Original Demon graphics were painted right?

If I were buying one of these… I would have ordered without the mat option (way overpriced) and just had it done by a quality wrap shop. That way it could be redone when/if necessary or returned to full color later on. When I had my Hellcat top surfaces wrapped, they told me that the majority of the mat wraps they did was to cover damaged mat paint because it couldn’t be touched up or repaired without a full repaint.

I would have to be clearcoated over.

Then the paint would no longer be satin

Satin clearcoat

Satin clearcoat

Then the other color would be a satin clear also the whole car

Oh well. I haven't paid attention to the details for this car.

No worries

Sounding like the black graphics are vinyl decal and NOT paint. Expensive decals if true. People that have taken delivery aren't happy. Price aside vinyl is probably easier to care for?

Makes sense.
That looked like it was going to be a difficult paint job.

If I remember correctly, it was sanded at the up fitter then painted and reassembled.
Its one thing if you are painting the entire angle, but painting a line/angle/curve, seems like it would add labor to make it right.

Yes

Well duh. of course you can BUILD just about anything u want. its like saying a 340 1970 cuda with a swapped out and massaged hemi is "better" than a 1 of 50 matching numbers unmodified 4speed hemi cuda...apples, cumquats...

You say that now.
But Demon owners will be up in arms.
Just like they were with the Redeye, the 1320, the Super Stock, the D170, and the wide body Scats.

I am an OG Demon owner. I am not, nor was I ever up in arms about what you typed above. As I said, raspberries, mangos...

 

[Boris]

Demon Owners
Plural
Unless you bought all 3300 of them

Wasn't trying to single you out.

If you haven't noticed, I don't care about the collector value of cars. Its not for me.

I feel like this is a lot less than many dealers are trying to offload their cars at.
Seen quite a few at 250+
So will they all hold out for 250k and sit on them for years like a few places did or will they actually sell it for something more reasonable?

 

[Speedy!]

Well, all those $100K over 170s seem to still be for sale from what I'm seeing. I guess you can ask whatever you want doesn't mean it's worth that.

I originally floated 25 over
Ive moved up to 30-35

I doubt it happens and I won't lose sleep over it.

You might.

I know the feeling, after contacting 75-100 dealers, no luck, 100k minimum, over. I won't pay 200k+ for Demon 170. I have a '22 red Redeye, which I really like. I have thought about contacting the dealers, again, but that little voice says, "You're wasting your time and energy on a bunch of dirtbags." I also, won't lose any sleep, but then, again...

 

[Bowtie Guy]

The majority of the 100K cars are sitting & I hope they stay sitting
But
People are on the sidelines jumping on anything in the 50 to 75 K range

For the people that miss out or sit tight

The new ICE Charger is slated for production starting spring 2025 which will come fast
I have a feeling a lot of people will be liking this car

Interesting times for sure

 

[Boris]

You might.

Nah

I got some of these babies coming for a NA build.
