New Car for me Traded my 06 GTO and 06 Charger Daytona
Well I was on and off shopping for a new car and was back and forth with many different models with no rhyme or reason almost everything was open. For a while I was seriously stuck on getting a new Mustang and was waiting for it to drop for the longest time and it finally did and I loved it to an extant. I loved the rear view the rear 3/4 view the side view but was having a hard time warming up to the front and at the time I was looking to buy even with the Ford X plan and shopping dealers not many were willing to deal and when you have two trade ins it makes it even harder and I tend to try to get most of my deals hemmed up before I even step on the lot as I don't like that 4 square and let me get my manager and what will it take to get you into it today nonsense while they figure out how to *** rape you.
So after trying for a few weeks to work a deal on A new Track pack mustang and a !le Camaro. I went back to Dodge and got the deal that I wanted. Now I like to mod my cars and even though the 6.4 392 doesn't take as much boost as easily as the LS or Coyote motors I am supremely happy with 485hp and 470ft tq and active exhuast track pack and soprt mode and with the mid mufflers deleted with 2.75 inch piping this bad boy barks like a ****.
My new ride is 2015 Sublime green Dodge Challenger Scat Pack R/T 6 speed manual and yes the 8sp auto is consistently faster in the 1/4 mile rowing through the gears puts a smile on my face every time I hit the start button. I bought it on Jan third and within the week I had it tinted then dropped on eibach sportline springs then put on my 22" Viper replicas that were on my Charger Daytona. I may still get a Mustang down the line after the GT350 hype dies down and one can be bought at a reasonable price. But I have a Procharger D1 in my sights for this car with conservative tuning if and when it becomes available 600-630 rwhp will be easy to get but to really turn up the boost it is recommended you get drop in pistons to take care of the weak link in the design of this motor which run about 800.00 for the set before labor then 700+ rwhp is as easy as a pully change. I gotta say im loving this car so far the M5 I messed with last weekend probably not so much though it was an even duel till he hit upper rpm's lol if only he knew I was starting off in 2nd to his first. I would have put a boat between the two of us but I was lazy and traffic was starting to form and I didn't want to go to jail.

Congratulations.
The Lime-green was one of the original extra-cost colors used in 1970 and 1971 on Dodge and Plymouth muscle-cars (I grew up with the originals in high school). The other extra-cost colors were the bright Hemi orange, Tor-Red, Lemon yellow Twist, and my personal favorite, the Plum Crazy/ In-Violet Purple.

Congrats! I really like the Scatpack Challenger and Lime Green is definitely the color of choice. I actually prefer the Scatpack over the Hellcat. Power is nice but too much power is something I don't like too much.
