And the base SRT8 is $43,700. Please tell me why that's worth $20,000 more than a regular Challenger. The only difference is different powertrain, wheels, tires, brakes, suspension. While those ARE substantial differences, they're not worth an additonal $20,000, especially when the original car was only worth $23,000. Does the Camaro double in price between the base model and the SS? No.

The only reason Dodge was able to get away with such a high price was because of the built-up expectation associated with bringing back the Challenger name.
