My order for a new Challenger Hellcat Redeye Widebody from Oct, 2022 has now been officially cancelled by Dodge. If you have a redeye on order and it's still 5N7 sales code with BG status, your car is not going to get built. Best to start looking for an existing car or settle of a regular HC but you better hurry because they will also be running out soon.

Very sorry to hear, I have been shouting for almost 2 years that 2023 was going to be a sh*tshow, which is why I ordered my 2022 RE Dec 2021, delivered March 2022, at a substantial discount. Grab a low mileage RE soon before people realize there is no longer a chance to buy new.

Unfortunately Dodge is making a big mistake! But some never learn from history.

I tried.
Was blocked since March.

Had a friendly chat with a dealer trying to offload their special editions, they can't move anything but the HO Hellcats and the Demon.

Good luck Dodge dealers. We won't miss you.

Special editions
Do you mean cars 1 thru 5 with a sticker package ?

So here we are with six months left in the year and a production 170 is yet to be seen. Does anybody have any reason to think that they are actually going to produce 3300 of those? Considering that they are canceling placed orders like this one….. maybe that is to turn all the leftover Challengers into 170’s? Redirecting all the Redeye engine building efforts into 170’s? I’m glad I’m not on a 170 waiting list with a last name starting with W. 🫣

There's no way they can continue to make these cars. The "buying Tesla carbon credits" loophole has been closed and the credits that currently cost $4,000 per car are going up x10. I'm sure Dodge would love to continue to build these cars in perpetuity.

Maybe that is why they are cancelling orders, so they can get the 170s built??

I bet they ram them through like what happens with TRX special editions.

Dodge needed a Hornet EV or something years ago.
They kept kicking the can down the road and here we are.

Corvette will drop 800+hp on us and not give 2 shits about carbon credits because of all the EVs they are pushing out.

Every day the world seems even more f'd up than I ever imagined it could get. :(

We don't need the Chinese or Russians to kick our ass, we are electing commie dictators just fine without them!

Meanwhile, Ford has been all in on EVs and they lost $3 billion dollars on them last year. So what's better, jamming your stores full of cars that no one wants or not building cars that no one wants?

From the looks of things I don't think we're ever going back, either with the car companies or the country. Those who have read the fall of the Roman Empire understand completely what's happening. Those who have not read it should do so. .

Ford has continually fucked up trying to sell me "regular" cars.
Maybe they should crack down on their dealership antics and things would sell better.

An Explorer ST with 8k markup? Nope.
Focus RS for 20k over? Fuck off
Raptor both 1st and 2nd gen at 10k over and sitting? Ha.

Then a Bronco that I was trying to have built, 1. took forever and 2. dealer wanted a markup on it.
I got a Jeep 6 weeks later custom built.

I think Ford has a lot of solid options, but their dealers might just be worse than Dodge's. I don't even look at new Fords now.
