DO NOT BUY ANY CAR FROM DODGE RIGHT NOW. MAKE THEM WAIT. Dodge and more importantly these dealerships need a taste of their own medicine. Don't buy anything until they are slashing Prices by 40-50%
I agree with you 1000%! I just pray that the MOPAR heads are patient. I listen to OC Motivator, Butta Da Insider and Knock Out 360 and they all say to wait, be patient and the “price gaugers “ will have no choice to cut prices drastically or have overpriced Hellcats on their lots while the new P.O.S. Electrified Challengers start coming in.
I agree but I'm up here in Canada and you can add $20-30-40,000 to that price tag, I don't get it I bought a brand new fully loaded 2011 Ram 1500 in 2012 and paid $44,000 with 0% interest that same truck up here is almost $120,000 with 8% interest, what are they thinking and we are not seeing the price cuts you guys are yet, maybe once the French close Charger and Challenger plant and fire every one in Ontario and move it to Mexico then we'll see a difference?? I hope they go under
Also be careful with the deterioration and damage done to vehicles that are exposed to the elements for a prolonged period. That’s what happening most likely to all these Chrysler’s cars. So buyer be aware and do your research.
Advertised prices mean NOTHING! Dealers will add on all the fees to make up and difference. Bait and switch pricing. If you are waiting for extra factory incentives or reissued window stickers ... then the dealers will NEVER discount off of MSRP. Dealers will have no new replacement vechiles for almost a year. They will squeeze EVERY penny out of you.
I don’t think they’ll be able to. The dealerships I regularly drive by have the same hemi chargers and challengers sitting for months now. Nobody is buying them.
@@rustyshaklferd1897 they are still doing this b s. I sent a friend a link to a brand new scatpack Daytona with a massive discount & of course when be got there it was all games & he didn't do the deal.
@@HCpov1 lol not true. I've had 7 charges & now 1 challenger. Have alot of experience buying cars & how to negotiate. Have excellent credit score/credit history. When i decided to trade in my 23 zl1 for another hellcat that was advertised heavily discounted they straight decided to try & recoup the sp called discount money with trash add ons & straight up refused to take them off. So i decided to get a used 22 with 400 miles on it elsewhere instead. Also just happened to somebody a sent a scatpack link to at a different dealership. Maybe it's just here in south Florida that's doing that but they're definitely full of it smh 🚮.
I’m glad they are that much . Keeps them out of reach for most who should not have the honor to own . I’m happy to know that but the high price margin , keeps the majority of people out of the driver seat allowing this car to increase in value drastically in the future
A dodge dealer advertised a 23 challenger near me for 35,570 and the msrp of 43,270. They then said the best they could do is 41,000 out the door….they are stilll playing games …
I worked at Lindsay CDJR in Manassas Virginia. The advertised price there was always BS. You had to qualify for that price. Recent college grad. Military discount. There were multiple discounts you had to qualify for. They ripped you off any way they could. I ended up quitting because I found out they were changing the numbers on the buyer's orders AFTER the customer signed. If you're in Northern Virginia stay away from Lindsay dealerships especially the ones in Manassas and Woodbridge.
I took my 14' Escalade ESV Premium into Lindsay Cadillac in Alexandria for quick oil change & those fucktards told me I needed $12,000 worth of work (after passing a rigorous MD state inspection, where shops literally try to find work on every car) just a week prior. I even did my own brake pads/rotors (using new dealership parts, AC Delco) in my driveway and Lindsay Cadillac wanted me to pay them $1,500 to do my "badly worn" brakes that were only on the truck for 60 miles lol. I asked them to take me around back & actually show me how shitty they were then they replied with oh wait, it's already being pulled around have a nice day! I haven't been there since. I go to Moore Cadillac in Chantilly & one of the techs wanted to buy my truck despite being 200k as I take really great care of my cars.
I went to Arrigo Dodge in ft. Pierce fl, and the salesman actually had the balls to tell me that $700 and $800 dollars a month is the new normal, and that was a bargain compared to other dealers, Arrigos MSRP on a challenger r/t is $50k, but there selling it at 44k, what a joke, and even with my 700 credit score, there telling me I'd be at 750 to 800 a month, and an interest rate of not lower than 10 to 13 %, you should have seen all the inventory on that lot, I hope they choke on all those cars..what a rip off..plus they have a $2995.00,dealer fee, they said is on every car they sell..I say good luck with that..
Sadly he's right, that IS the new normal. The days of $200-500 car notes for late model/new cars are gone forever unless you put down something crazy like 50% down. Everybody these days are getting spanked with high interest and high payments. My 2015 Charger R/T I bought (pre-ordered) new was a bargain compared to the same car now. I was paying $440/mo after $8k down and that was with 0% interest back when times were good and not all shitty like they are now. My new 300C I bought at sticker price (56,595 + extended warranty/ tax, tags etc) and with a 760 score Stellantis Financial still spanked me with a ridiculous 12%. I'll be refinancing in 3 more months so I didn't trip. My bank I got my Redeye through last year only hit me with 8% so hopefully I can get that again. Even my uncle's Toyota Sienna is $700/month. I know a dude paying that for a SXT! Shit is out of control.
I have shopped several vehicles online in my area. When I get a quote it is always over-suggested retail and then they add on all kinds of junk fees. Dealers are adding 10k in greed fees on top of the vehicle price with taxes.
The awful interest rates are what's stopping me from buying a hellcat. Even with the price drops it's still just stupid expensive. Miss the days of 0% interest like I got on my scat pack!
i still pulled the trigger on one and just crossing my fingers that the interest rates drop in the next 12-24 months but if not ill just work an extra hour every day😂
@@ItsBlurrs congrats!!! Did you find what you wanted? I thought about rolling the dice and hoping the rates will come down in the future but I just can't bring myself to do it.
@@luism8130 idk where you live but here in California, for an R/T, I’d say like 3 years ago, R/T’s were $57,000 and up. Now they went down to $35-$40K and I actually bought one last Saturday. Has 187 miles already!
The problem is that in a couple of months, they are going to be 2 year old cars. Even with a good price you will still be very upside down as soon as you drive off
Yeah I bought a new Mustang from Ford a couple years ago and they keep sending me hand written letters to trade it in for 8k over the blue book value and I laugh every time I get them knowing it's just a plot to get me back in the dealership to try and screw me over!!
15k off a price that’s bumped up 20k is not a deal, that’s not even back to what the regular price should be. Walmart does the same crap every Black Friday. Just skip Chrysler entirely there’s no sense buying a brand that has no idea what their customer wants anymore 😂
Lol I should start asking dealerships if they would sell a RT challenger for under 30K 🤷🏽♂️ if I got one for 25K I’d never regret it, under 30K miles of course and 😂 check for burnout evidence or aftermarket differential etc
Keep it and enjoy being out of debt! Don't listen to people telling you to sell. I won't sell my 2018 GT either. It's paid off and I like being debt free.
@@JGL98 yea I’ve had some good offers from the same dealer I bought it from. I’ve been tempted to sell it and get a hellcat, but they’re just too expensive now. ScatPack has more than enough power 😂
I was just my local dealer in Massachusetts yesterday and they only offered a dealer discount of $1,500 on a challenger GT AWD that is 150 days old. I said no and they let me walk out. Clearly some dealerships are still hallucinating
Oh definitely. But you should never only go to one dealership when buying a car. Salesmen don’t like it when you say you’re going to a different one. Lol
Just let those cars sit on the lot until they dry rot as far as I'm concerned. They're so far overpriced that $15k off is still well over sticker price.
Dude the msrp are already inflated. I bought a new scat pack in 2016 for 32500. So even w discount still 7-15k more now. Buying an rt charger 5.7 for the 30s is a rip off
@@RacerX9 my point is those deals aren’t deals dude. It’s still overpaying in a softer than everyone is saying economy. You pay 35k for an r/t you’re upside down quickly. When I paid 32500 for a brand new scat pack they were 36-42k. That’s how you find a deal. Not listening to the hype
I’ve been seeing a lot of dealers offering R/Ts for around $33k-$36k. But you have to go to the dealership to find out which ones will honor that. I think many will, but not all.
Thats why they are sitting on the lots just like the almost 6 figure trucks sitting on GM and Ford lots. the big 3 have lost their damn minds thinking that people will spend that much on trucks
Unfortunately, the problem that people lost ability to buy, the times are tough. These collectors vehicles, one could buy both cars overpaying $75K for each, store them properly for 2 years and resell each for $200K profit.
@@billhamilton7524 Then my suggestion would be to do a crash course video binge on his videos regarding Dodge’s marketing antics. Right off the bat they do not listen to their customers! Hey, and I’m not lashing out at you directly per-say, I’m just frustrated with them! I’m a major Dodge fan who’s extremely disappointed with them.
@@tundrawhisperer4821 Roger that , and I"ll do that ,, I dont know much about them recently other than they went E V on the challenger and for that I hope they sink . Its been a long time dream car for me and I just started looking for one ,cant afford a new one so I guess I won't have to experience any dealer crap.I dont really know much about the car and its reliability so I'll have to rely on the internet unless you have any advice ,,I do know I want the V8,,[cant afford a demon} cheers
went looking at a wrangler Saturday here's the dealerships new game they lowered the msrp 6k but added an extra $1,367.00 for a sticker that says jeep performance, paint protection, and window tint, when I asked if they are going to take that 1,367 off the price because I dont want that extra stuff they said no so I left.
See bro you got what you wanted and didn’t pay too close to 40K I honestly feel 40K scats are ridiculous, Dodge fan or not. Hellcats should have never been over 65K for slim and Widebody over 72K is insane. A demon should barely be 80K 😂😂
Low prices might bring you in the dodge store, but Im sure greedy dealers will have massive add-ons like $300 nitrogen tires, $2k paint "protection".................pass
But have you actually walked into any dealerships to find out? If you know how to negotiate, then you should never pay those fees. And don’t expect to walk in and just assume you’re going to get the best price right off the bat. Pick a price, not a payment, then don’t leave till they tell you no. Then if they do, walk out.
They have a Challenged SRT Hellcat Redeye Wide Body for $157,460 but the Bastards have added $100,000 to the price. All prices are in Canadian Dollars. No Sale .👎
It’s nice to see cars finally selling at affordable prices after years of insane pricing. Oh course… interest rates are still high and most people don’t have cash.
Thanks RacerX for the 11 minute commercial for your local Dodge dealership, you definitely fit the description of a Dodge FanBoy, did you water your front yard grass yet?
X, what is your opinion on lot rot? Do you think hellcat engines will be damaged from sitting too long? Im seeing several that have sat for close to a year. Not to mention being exposed to the elements and not being washed regularly
@@RacerX9I’ve been curious about that too. I see tons of videos talking about lot rot, but it’s always on used cars and mostly on body damaged caused by it. Never about the engines.
Thanks for the research Racer X ! Problem is with drivers like me who bought 392s and Kitties, etc 2 years ago is they are now stuck in a higher payment loan. The only way out is negative equity, which will also make your new vehicle higher payments. I think I will hang onto my Chally Scat.
Your sounding like a salesman. Your acting like the price hiking dealership market adjustment being removed is some kind of discount. Look at the comments below " 17k off a vehicle that's 40k overpriced " " 15k off a price that’s bumped up 20k " . Your absolutely giving a sales pitch. Your also saying over and over now's the time to buy these cars, Your absolutely giving a sales pitch. To those reading this watch and see if it gets removed. I and also as my friend think the OP may have been hired to put this video out.
No here in Michigan. I just did a search out 500 miles from my zip, and the Charger Scat Packs (narrow and wide body) are listing MSRPs between $60,000 and $65,000
@@RacerX9 They aren't dealing, just baiting people to come on down, and then hope you'll still buy since you are there at the moment. Get back to me when prices go back to 2019 levels including the same inflation rate level we saw back in that timeframe to arrive at a SANE and reasonable MSRP for 2024.
Do NOT buy now! Wait for at least 06 Months. The prices are falling, but 2~5k below the 90k+. However, if you can’t wait, then buy, but I have been watching 90k +Hellcat Charger prices go down. The cheapest I’ve seen so far $79k for a brand new, 2023 Charger Hellcat. If you wait, you will pay significantly lower prices and not get gauged
I now live in TX, but was noticing there is little Charger/Challenger inventory in Westchester NY or CT, but these dealers are loaded with Hornets. Try searching the Texas dealers online, they are offering 3K in discounts and 4k in rebates from STLA. The TX dealers have many SXTs, some under $30k. Might be a good daily for someone looking for a nice highway cruiser. I rented one when house hunting down here, and was very impressed with it. There are still a few AWD GTs as well.
Thats insane... I was just in Cali and could not believe how expensive everything was out there. I don't know how anyone does it.. it's like money out there is on a completely different scale than everywhere else.
It’s because it ls a liberal state. Look at all the liberal states you will notice the same correlation. I’m from so cal. Moral of the story move that’s what I did. Went back to visit and I don’t miss it.
Just got my charger RT for 34k, blacktop, tech, plus package included…but I also walked out of 3 other dealers and emailed 2 before I found one that would finally honor all the incentives. Deals are out there just be vigilant!
As much as I love the Scatpack, in fact I traded a C7 Stingray for a Scatpack with zero regrets, but no way I would trade a classic restored Vette for a Scat though. Keep the classic Vette but get the Scat too!
@@henryconstantinides1841 Well I actually started out with a Challenger R/T, which I loved at the time but it quickly became obvious that the R/T wasn't quite enough performance for me when compared to the GT and SS especially. So the plan was to upgrade to a Scatpack, GT, or SS. Test drove all of them, but got distracted and ended up going to a C6 with high miles. Again, loved it but the high miles and notoriously bad interior of the C6 started to weigh on me. Upgraded to a like-new C7. To me it was a night and day difference. Loved the C7 but the car was just too mellow. It's very fast and handles like a dream, but there just wasn't enough drama. I had the NPP exhaust upgrade but it still doesn't sound as good as a bone stock Scatpack. The C7 is a little bit faster but not by enough to matter to a guy that just wants to hot dog around town and make noise. The Scat is more fun and more dramatic. It's big for no reason, loud for no reason other than because it's fun to be that way. Yes the C7 is slightly ahead of the Scatpack in pretty much every way, but the Scat is just more fun. Still love the C7, but no regrets on the trade.
I got over a 770 Credit Score and the best offer I got from the Dealer was a 13% intrest rate on my Trackhawk. And I put over 10k Down. I was in disbelief. I know the Dealer Marked the rate up. Ended up going through my CU
@@wileecoyote5749no, if you don’t know ow what to look for, dealers add on to the interest rates also. They can add on between 2-3%. You have to be smart and call them on their bs. Best thing to do is get approved from your bank or credit union before going to the dealership, then try to get them to match or give you a better rate.
You were smart to take the deal to your CU. Regular bank loan should have come in the 8-9% max unless your DTI is way out of whack. We sell cars, NOT money is what my F&I guy says. Loves to call out banks, he just did it yesterday.
The banks will be wanting their money . But there has to be a time frame that theses dealerships have keeping them on their lot’s before the banks start putting pressure on them and I don’t think it’s started just yet . Wait until mid year
Dodge has turned me off the brand after price gouching! Those cars are too heavy anyway. I'd rather get a camaro or mustang. Not to mention they get stolen all the time.
Why do y’all always forget the C7 Corvette 😋 and yea I fell in love with how heavy it is, but the prices make you go so I’m paying MORE for less speed ? I’ll pass
My dream daily car is the Dodge Challenger and I absolutely would love a hellcat but all the thefts and shootings worry me. Can I buy a V6 SXT or GT and be a little less worried?
Of course you can buy a sxt or a GT and have it stolen way less. They really like hellcats that’s because they are awesome and cost more. They can part them out and make money while running from the police and getting away easily. But this is true with any nice car you buy don’t let thugs ruin your dreams just protect your self and your property.
@@joshreynolds729 thanks for answering me, do you think I might be able to get away with giving it a hellcat bumper and or Widebody? It’s just that I love the aggressive look from the hellcats and I want to have that on my daily to enjoy. I won’t Upbage it and give it SRT badges or anything ofc.
@@midnightraceryt yeah no problem. Yeah you can add hellcat facias on it and a wide body if you like the car frame and everything is the same. They also sell body kits for it. And even aftermarket parts and blower if you want to go faster if the v6 isn’t enough after purchase. I believe boosted lucky here on UA-cam started out with an sxt might help you out on your journey. Wish you the best hope you get what you’re looking for. 👍🏻. The issue here with this is that thief’s will think it’s a hellcat even rebadged debadged or no badge defeating the purpose. Hellcats don’t really make great daily drivers. But you can buy a scat 18 and up used for cheaper than a cat and they pack a punch plus come with many of the items your looking for. And if you want to make good power you can always build it because the blocks are the same bge block in the hellcat just different everything else.
Besides the size of the block being slightly bigger 6.4l and maybe slightly better cooling jackets but other than that very stout block. Mmx sells build kits for that rods pistons crank everything, and plenty of tuners. But if cash is the deal sxt then build the exterior how you like. Ain’t no wrong way to go brother. Used hellcats can be got that are older like mine now 15-16 years for 40-60k.
@@joshreynolds729 yeah, I’ve driven a scat pack and oh my god I loved it! But it’s too expensive for me, and the SXTs and GTs are 20-22k rn in used near me. Or 27-30k if I want to buy brand new.
Hi, I would like to look at that car you discounted 50% for today only. What? You sold it and have another car just like it sitting right here. Not the same price?
Dealers are not taking loses. Are manufacturers selling cars at cost price or less. NO. Then they are still making money profits. Telling people they save off huge mark ups is the oldest sales trick in the book. Cars and Trucks are overpriced and not selling.
There is a catch with those large discounts which they do not make abundantly clear until you ask about one of them. About 1/3 of the markup only applies to Military and First Responders so that 17k off quickly devolves into 10 or 11k off. Kind of shady the way they advertise these discounts if you ask me.
85 grand for a Jeep? They must be smokin some good stuff at Chrysler HQ. The big 3 have lost their ever loving minds if they think their junk is worth 6 figures.
If I'm paying 80k for a Jeep it better be a TrackHawk!!!. Those were 80ish when they first came out in 2018 and they're still going for high prices (at least all the rare clean ones that didn't get wrecked or stolen). Nowadays that's only a puny little 2.0L 4XE with a big & really expensive battery LOL.
The dealers got so greedy people weren't gonna get suckered into overpaying for a Challenger or Charger. Back in the sixties and seventies (early) you could check boxes for the options you wanted on the car you were ordering. If uou wanted a 440 instesd of a 383 you would pay an extra $300.
@@alanhowitzeryou just assume that they won’t honor it. You’ll always hear about the bad ones that won’t and less often about the ones that will. I keep seeing people talking about CA and FL, which are 2 of the worst states to buy a car in. If you’re looking, don’t just go to one place and give up. You have to go to multiple places. That should always be what you should do no matter what.
It feels so empty and weird looking at all the discontinued vehicles. I was going to purchase a gas challenger when my Ram was paid off - now it’s all over.
Here’s my experience this week at local dealer…scat with decent options $8k discount. I did my research on my trade-in value and have equity in my trade. The dealer wanted to offer me $8k less on my trade value to make up for the discount on the scat. Obviously they thought I couldn’t do simple math and hadn’t done my research. I walked. Doing a search right now in a 100 mile radius of me there are 186 scats on new car lots similarly optioned. So, waiting seems to make sense for me.
I just picked up a Durango RT that had an original sticker of 64K for 48K. That is 16K off sticker. They have some Durango Hellcats that are 8K off sticker, and I saw some in the low 90K range. But still to much of a theft magnet plus the RT deal was just to sweet 😊
-Awesome advice! I personally Love these Hemi Dodges and Rams. I actually own a 2016 Charger Scat pack in the "General Lee" Go-Mango color and 2021 Ram Laramie in White (Paid a little more than I shouldve but those were the times). -I found the Charger in Sept 2016 (I think the 1st yr they came out) for less than $40K on True Car Brand new from a DCJR dealership. It is Fully Loaded Except: No HID headlights! They were going for high $50's -65K. -My opinion is that everyone shopping wanted the HID lights and maybe didn't have the Cojones to buy a car in that color. -I dont know what true car is like now but I had to search the site and then dealers separately, then combine the search and the car at the dealer. Took me like 3 weeks but I got a Scat Pack for less then a well equipped R/T. (except I got a sunroof and no HIDs) LOL
Of course they are, but customers would have to buy a Stellantis product. Buying a new vehicle before your home and land are paid off only makes sense if you are seriously wealthy. Otherwise it bleeds your wallet of money which could go into retirement investments and MAKE money. Profit is better than shiny objects.
Advertised prices do not mean squat. Most of these dealers have all kinds of fine print, hidden fees, adders, etc. Once you ask, they are not close to what they show on their sites.
You’re absolutely spot on RacerX. I just picked up a 22 Challenger ScatPack T/A in Maryland, 700 miles on it, and no previous owner for $45k fully loaded when I’ve been seeing them listed at other dealers for high 50s low 60s.
I live by Bomnin Dodge. My advice is to call dealers for OTD price. Trust me when I say, website advertised prices means nothing for anything with a 392. I live by Bomnin Dodge, you need to be a doctor, astronaut, nuclear scientist, etc, etc to qualify for the advertised website prices.
As a follow up, just yesterday visited Bomnin Dodge to help my best friend buy a Destroyer Gray with red interior widebody 392. MSRP at $63,795 … OTD was $64,500.
They take money off the cars but a lot of them add items (paint protection) and if you finance with them they will add something to the rates to make up for the loss. The only ones heavily discounted are the lower end models. The HC they aren't budging much, Maybe 2-3k but with 10% interest rates that's still a hefty payment.
After a frustrating month grappling with dealer-imposed fees, including unnecessary charges like paint protection, I stumbled upon the Tesla website. The seamless experience of test-driving and purchasing a car through a simple app led me to swap my Scat Pack for a Tesla. Buying a brand-new car from the comfort of my home at 3 am was a game-changer. I fervently wish other companies would adopt this business model and put an end to the deceptive practices of traditional dealerships. While my dream of owning a classic muscle car remains intact, I’m eager to witness a revolution in the automotive industry.
Im not gonna lie, less than $30k for a NEW charger or challenger r/t is a good if not great deal... but the brand has been gouging us too much for too long. Let them reap what they sew. I would love to have a ram 1500 ecodiesel, but i can't afford even a used one (and dont actually need it). I have a paid for '04 durango for my towpig needs. Anyways, i hope all brands gouging their customers feel this pain, its too late to right this wrong, just my $0.02. :)
I have a 2014 ram 1500 Laramie crew cab. I bought a secondary vehicle a few weeks ago when I needed a small vehicle to get around in town. I didn't sell or trade in my truck, because the value has dropped so much, even though it's only got 50K miles on it.
These dealerships are not credible. The problem is no one believes the discount. BS like 10k off then show up and it’s all BS. No one believes them and they will feel the pain.
I've noticed more older cars on the road now.even me i drive a 1996 Dakota. And I rebuilt the engine for 3thousand..and I re did the suspension..so now I got a new truck well old body but new heart..that way better then a car payment..this truck should last me my whole life just like it did for my dad..
@@gnd111always best to go to the smaller market dealers. Hell, you’re actually better off going to GA to buy than buying in FL. Unless you like paying those high Dock fees.
I can't picture any dealership losing money even when they drop prices by 10k to 20K depending on the car.. Any car that is in demand is up by 30K at least these days..
We put all of our chargers and challengers into ctp until they hit 500 miles because then we can drop the prices another 4k on all of them and 6k on hellcats
In 2015 I wanted to purchase a Challenger/Hemi in that blue, but the dealer stated that color did not exist, so I showed him a photo of that car in blue at the Car Show I went to. Then in 2018 I wanted again to buy the Challenger/Hemi with the Whacker Hood, again they did not have that blue, it was dropped for that year. Very frustrating.
I'm sad that the Challenger is going bye-bye. :/ Would love a Scat Pack! Just can't afford it! Great video, Racer X! Thanks for giving us the heads up!

Its not just Dodge, Ford and GM are doing exactly the same thing. I think it also depends on what part of the country your are in.
Advertised prices mean NOTHING! Dealers will add on all the fees to make up and difference. Bait and switch pricing. If you are waiting for extra factory incentives or reissued window stickers ... then the dealers will NEVER discount off of MSRP. Dealers will have no new replacement vechiles for almost a year. They will squeeze EVERY penny out of you.
The dealership I was at had no addendums or hidden fees .. but yes some will still play games. You have to be diligent for sure
I don’t think they’ll be able to. The dealerships I regularly drive by have the same hemi chargers and challengers sitting for months now. Nobody is buying them.
If you know how to buy a car froma dealership, that won't happen.
That happens to people who have no clue how to buy cars.
@@rustyshaklferd1897 they are still doing this b s. I sent a friend a link to a brand new scatpack Daytona with a massive discount & of course when be got there it was all games & he didn't do the deal.
@@HCpov1 lol not true. I've had 7 charges & now 1 challenger. Have alot of experience buying cars & how to negotiate. Have excellent credit score/credit history. When i decided to trade in my 23 zl1 for another hellcat that was advertised heavily discounted they straight decided to try & recoup the sp called discount money with trash add ons & straight up refused to take them off. So i decided to get a used 22 with 400 miles on it elsewhere instead. Also just happened to somebody a sent a scatpack link to at a different dealership. Maybe it's just here in south Florida that's doing that but they're definitely full of it smh 🚮.
It's not time yet. The car prices have gotten so ridiculous the last two to four years that even a discounted price is still too high

I’m glad they are that much . Keeps them out of reach for most who should not have the honor to own . I’m happy to know that but the high price margin , keeps the majority of people out of the driver seat allowing this car to increase in value drastically in the future
Truth
A dodge dealer advertised a 23 challenger near me for 35,570 and the msrp of 43,270. They then said the best they could do is 41,000 out the door….they are stilll playing games …
I worked at Lindsay CDJR in Manassas Virginia. The advertised price there was always BS. You had to qualify for that price. Recent college grad. Military discount. There were multiple discounts you had to qualify for. They ripped you off any way they could. I ended up quitting because I found out they were changing the numbers on the buyer's orders AFTER the customer signed. If you're in Northern Virginia stay away from Lindsay dealerships especially the ones in Manassas and Woodbridge.
Sorry to hear that buddy!
There were some exposes on TV about other dealerships doing that.
I took my 14' Escalade ESV Premium into Lindsay Cadillac in Alexandria for quick oil change & those fucktards told me I needed $12,000 worth of work (after passing a rigorous MD state inspection, where shops literally try to find work on every car) just a week prior. I even did my own brake pads/rotors (using new dealership parts, AC Delco) in my driveway and Lindsay Cadillac wanted me to pay them $1,500 to do my "badly worn" brakes that were only on the truck for 60 miles lol. I asked them to take me around back & actually show me how shitty they were then they replied with oh wait, it's already being pulled around have a nice day! I haven't been there since. I go to Moore Cadillac in Chantilly & one of the techs wanted to buy my truck despite being 200k as I take really great care of my cars.

My r/t was 30k 53k miles
Sadly he's right, that IS the new normal. The days of $200-500 car notes for late model/new cars are gone forever unless you put down something crazy like 50% down. Everybody these days are getting spanked with high interest and high payments. My 2015 Charger R/T I bought (pre-ordered) new was a bargain compared to the same car now. I was paying $440/mo after $8k down and that was with 0% interest back when times were good and not all shitty like they are now. My new 300C I bought at sticker price (56,595 + extended warranty/ tax, tags etc) and with a 760 score Stellantis Financial still spanked me with a ridiculous 12%. I'll be refinancing in 3 more months so I didn't trip. My bank I got my Redeye through last year only hit me with 8% so hopefully I can get that again. Even my uncle's Toyota Sienna is $700/month. I know a dude paying that for a SXT! Shit is out of control.
I have shopped several vehicles online in my area. When I get a quote it is always over-suggested retail and then they add on all kinds of junk fees. Dealers are adding 10k in greed fees on top of the vehicle price with taxes.
The awful interest rates are what's stopping me from buying a hellcat. Even with the price drops it's still just stupid expensive. Miss the days of 0% interest like I got on my scat pack!

The problem is that in a couple of months, they are going to be 2 year old cars. Even with a good price you will still be very upside down as soon as you drive off

15k off a price that’s bumped up 20k is not a deal, that’s not even back to what the regular price should be. Walmart does the same crap every Black Friday. Just skip Chrysler entirely there’s no sense buying a brand that has no idea what their customer wants anymore 😂

lol no one should pay 48k for an rt 😂 mid 30s is what they were originally priced 3 years ago and nothing changed in them.
I’ve been seeing a lot of dealers offering R/Ts for around $33k-$36k. But you have to go to the dealership to find out which ones will honor that. I think many will, but not all.

X when they offer 0 financing or even 1.9 percent, they will clear the lots. Finance rate controls everything
Not at 60K to 100K.
6 figures for a Dodge! I wouldn't be able to sleep at night paying that much for any Dodge
Acr
maybe a viper but demons and hellcats are complete ripoffs. way cheaper to build your own
Thats why they are sitting on the lots just like the almost 6 figure trucks sitting on GM and Ford lots. the big 3 have lost their damn minds thinking that people will spend that much on trucks
To spend that much for a vehicle means price is no object.
Then it’s not for you obviously
Place up here by me has 2 Demon 170s on the lot and they still have a 75k markup. Absolutely ridiculous.
Unfortunately, the problem that people lost ability to buy, the times are tough. These collectors vehicles, one could buy both cars overpaying $75K for each, store them properly for 2 years and resell each for $200K profit.
Not in Canada. RTs are in the high $50-low$60K range. Scats are in the $70s-$80K range and there are no Hellcats below $110K.

Local St Louis dealer had $12K off R/T Charger (not SCAT Pack) and was still $44K. Cheapest SCAT Pack with $12K discount was $55K.

See bro you got what you wanted and didn’t pay too close to 40K I honestly feel 40K scats are ridiculous, Dodge fan or not. Hellcats should have never been over 65K for slim and Widebody over 72K is insane. A demon should barely be 80K 😂😂

But have you actually walked into any dealerships to find out? If you know how to negotiate, then you should never pay those fees. And don’t expect to walk in and just assume you’re going to get the best price right off the bat. Pick a price, not a payment, then don’t leave till they tell you no. Then if they do, walk out.
this is only one dealership though, and its in the states! up here in Canada we are still getting screwed up the butt!

Thanks for the research Racer X ! Problem is with drivers like me who bought 392s and Kitties, etc 2 years ago is they are now stuck in a higher payment loan. The only way out is negative equity, which will also make your new vehicle higher payments. I think I will hang onto my Chally Scat.

So the plan was to upgrade to a Scatpack, GT, or SS. Test drove all of them, but got distracted and ended up going to a C6 with high miles. Again, loved it but the high miles and notoriously bad interior of the C6 started to weigh on me. Upgraded to a like-new C7. To me it was a night and day difference. Loved the C7 but the car was just too mellow. It's very fast and handles like a dream, but there just wasn't enough drama. I had the NPP exhaust upgrade but it still doesn't sound as good as a bone stock Scatpack. The C7 is a little bit faster but not by enough to matter to a guy that just wants to hot dog around town and make noise. The Scat is more fun and more dramatic. It's big for no reason, loud for no reason other than because it's fun to be that way. Yes the C7 is slightly ahead of the Scatpack in pretty much every way, but the Scat is just more fun. Still love the C7, but no regrets on the trade.

You were smart to take the deal to your CU. Regular bank loan should have come in the 8-9% max unless your DTI is way out of whack. We sell cars, NOT money is what my F&I guy says. Loves to call out banks, he just did it yesterday.
Yes, some don't know, but the dealer takes the "banks" interest rate and adds their own bit to get a constant kickback..
The banks will be wanting their money . But there has to be a time frame that theses dealerships have keeping them on their lot’s before the banks start putting pressure on them and I don’t think it’s started just yet . Wait until mid year

Of course you can buy a sxt or a GT and have it stolen way less. They really like hellcats that’s because they are awesome and cost more.

@@midnightraceryt yeah no problem. Yeah you can add hellcat facias on it and a wide body if you like the car frame and everything is the same. They also sell body kits for it. And even aftermarket parts and blower if you want to go faster if the v6 isn’t enough after purchase. I believe boosted lucky here on UA-cam started out with an sxt might help you out on your journey. Wish you the best hope you get what you’re looking for. 👍🏻. The issue here with this is that thief’s will think it’s a hellcat even rebadged debadged or no badge defeating the purpose. Hellcats don’t really make great daily drivers. But you can buy a scat 18 and up used for cheaper than a cat and they pack a punch plus come with many of the items your looking for. And if you want to make good power you can always build it because the blocks are the same bge block in the hellcat just different everything else.
Besides the size of the block being slightly bigger 6.4l and maybe slightly better cooling jackets but other than that very stout block. Mmx sells build kits for that rods pistons crank everything, and plenty of tuners. But if cash is the deal sxt then build the exterior how you like. Ain’t no wrong way to go brother.

Hi, I would like to look at that car you discounted 50% for today only. What? You sold it and have another car just like it sitting right here. Not the same price?
Dealers are not taking loses. Are manufacturers selling cars at cost price or less. NO. Then they are still making money profits. Telling people they save off huge mark ups is the oldest sales trick in the book. Cars and Trucks are overpriced and not selling.
There is a catch with those large discounts which they do not make abundantly clear until you ask about one of them. About 1/3 of the markup only applies to Military and First Responders so that 17k off quickly devolves into 10 or 11k off. Kind of shady the way they advertise these discounts if you ask me.
Yes it’s really shady how some do it
Thanks!
Thank you for the super chat my friend. My apologies for the delayed reply. I appreciate your support
85 grand for a Jeep? They must be smokin some good stuff at Chrysler HQ. The big 3 have lost their ever loving minds if they think their junk is worth 6 figures.
If I'm paying 80k for a Jeep it better be a TrackHawk!!!. Those were 80ish when they first came out in 2018 and they're still going for high prices (at least all the rare clean ones that didn't get wrecked or stolen). Nowadays that's only a puny little 2.0L 4XE with a big & really expensive battery LOL.
The dealers got so greedy people weren't gonna get suckered into overpaying for a Challenger or Charger. Back in the sixties and seventies (early) you could check boxes for the options you wanted on the car you were ordering. If uou wanted a 440 instesd of a 383 you would pay an extra $300.
My local delaership has cut 10K on some of the Hellcats...prices are starting to drop hard.
What dealership? I’ll buy one for that????
But what happens when you get there?
@@alanhowitzeryou just assume that they won’t honor it. You’ll always hear about the bad ones that won’t and less often about the ones that will. I keep seeing people talking about CA and FL, which are 2 of the worst states to buy a car in. If you’re looking, don’t just go to one place and give up. You have to go to multiple places. That should always be what you should do no matter what.
10k off a car that’s already 30-40k over priced.. still not worth it… keep holding
@@DefinitelyNotYouThankGod10k off is not enough bro. They needs significantly drop those prices.
Must only be in the states. Here in Canada all of those are still $70k
The problem will be even if you can get a decent price the high interest rates will get you!
It feels so empty and weird looking at all the discontinued vehicles.
I was going to purchase a gas challenger when my Ram was paid off - now it’s all over.
Here’s my experience this week at local dealer…scat with decent options $8k discount. I did my research on my trade-in value and have equity in my trade. The dealer wanted to offer me $8k less on my trade value to make up for the discount on the scat. Obviously they thought I couldn’t do simple math and hadn’t done my research. I walked. Doing a search right now in a 100 mile radius of me there are 186 scats on new car lots similarly optioned. So, waiting seems to make sense for me.
Yea they never stop playing games
I just picked up a Durango RT that had an original sticker of 64K for 48K. That is 16K off sticker. They have some Durango Hellcats that are 8K off sticker, and I saw some in the low 90K range. But still to much of a theft magnet plus the RT deal was just to sweet 😊
That is a great deal! We paid $62 K for ours last year.
The RT is cool, but it has base entry V8 engine. Definitively worth not to go with the basics, but invest a bit more and get Hellcat Durango.
-Awesome advice! I personally Love these Hemi Dodges and Rams. I actually own a 2016 Charger Scat pack in the "General Lee" Go-Mango color and 2021 Ram Laramie in White (Paid a little more than I shouldve but those were the times).
-I found the Charger in Sept 2016 (I think the 1st yr they came out) for less than $40K on True Car Brand new from a DCJR dealership. It is Fully Loaded Except: No HID headlights! They were going for high $50's -65K.
-My opinion is that everyone shopping wanted the HID lights and maybe didn't have the Cojones to buy a car in that color.
-I dont know what true car is like now but I had to search the site and then dealers separately, then combine the search and the car at the dealer. Took me like 3 weeks but I got a Scat Pack for less then a well equipped R/T. (except I got a sunroof and no HIDs) LOL
Of course they are, but customers would have to buy a Stellantis product. Buying a new vehicle before your home and land are paid off only makes sense if you are seriously wealthy.
Otherwise it bleeds your wallet of money which could go into retirement investments and MAKE money. Profit is better than shiny objects.
Advertised prices do not mean squat. Most of these dealers have all kinds of fine print, hidden fees, adders, etc. Once you ask, they are not close to what they show on their sites.
You’re absolutely spot on RacerX. I just picked up a 22 Challenger ScatPack T/A in Maryland, 700 miles on it, and no previous owner for $45k fully loaded when I’ve been seeing them listed at other dealers for high 50s low 60s.
Meh not that good tbh, if it was a widebody it would be
@@Murphys_Law9 And I really don’t give a shit what you think
NICE JOB BROTHER, GREAT DEAL AND YOU ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNER 💯👍 DO YOU STILL GET THE WARRANTY WITH IT TOO❓👏👏💯👍@@RonRon18470
@RonRon18470 Dude you scored!
How much was that F8 green Widebody Scat?
A nearby dealer has a narrow body leftover '22 Hellcat marked down $11,500 to $77,500. I wonder just how far down i could get that???
Probably pretty far down. That car is costing them a lot of money. If they knew better, you could probably get it for under invoice.
@Coonazz791 There should be a huge Power Dollars on leftover '22s!
@@brooks74silverbee I don’t know how that would work, but either way, you can probably get a good deal on it.
The prices of Ram are totally crazy! Actually, the price for trucks, are totally nuts!!!!!
So what’s the name of the dealership
I guess I'll just have to go to Florida and buy one there 😅and tell them Racer X sent me and get another 15 percent off😂
Florida is one of the worst states to buy a car and is notorious for high "doc" fee's and massive "advantage plans".
Thanks for the confirmation. I noticed the dramatic shift in prices and thought my mind was playing tricks on me.
I live by Bomnin Dodge. My advice is to call dealers for OTD price. Trust me when I say, website advertised prices means nothing for anything with a 392. I live by Bomnin Dodge, you need to be a doctor, astronaut, nuclear scientist, etc, etc to qualify for the advertised website prices.
As a follow up, just yesterday visited Bomnin Dodge to help my best friend buy a Destroyer Gray with red interior widebody 392. MSRP at $63,795 … OTD was $64,500.
They take money off the cars but a lot of them add items (paint protection) and if you finance with them they will add something to the rates to make up for the loss. The only ones heavily discounted are the lower end models. The HC they aren't budging much, Maybe 2-3k but with 10% interest rates that's still a hefty payment.
Too expensive .
Bought a 2020 charger Rt and walked out the door 30k ….. now it’s 45k that’s steep! Big price difference!
Now is the WORST TIME to buy a car. Wait until LABOR DAY
After a frustrating month grappling with dealer-imposed fees, including unnecessary charges like paint protection, I stumbled upon the Tesla website. The seamless experience of test-driving and purchasing a car through a simple app led me to swap my Scat Pack for a Tesla. Buying a brand-new car from the comfort of my home at 3 am was a game-changer. I fervently wish other companies would adopt this business model and put an end to the deceptive practices of traditional dealerships. While my dream of owning a classic muscle car remains intact, I’m eager to witness a revolution in the automotive industry.
Im not gonna lie, less than $30k for a NEW charger or challenger r/t is a good if not great deal... but the brand has been gouging us too much for too long. Let them reap what they sew. I would love to have a ram 1500 ecodiesel, but i can't afford even a used one (and dont actually need it). I have a paid for '04 durango for my towpig needs. Anyways, i hope all brands gouging their customers feel this pain, its too late to right this wrong, just my $0.02. :)
I have a 2014 ram 1500 Laramie crew cab. I bought a secondary vehicle a few weeks ago when I needed a small vehicle to get around in town. I didn't sell or trade in my truck, because the value has dropped so much, even though it's only got 50K miles on it.
These dealerships are not credible. The problem is no one believes the discount. BS like 10k off then show up and it’s all BS. No one believes them and they will feel the pain.
But what you shouldn’t do is lump all dealerships into one. Just because one place is doing it, doesn’t mean they all are.
I've noticed more older cars on the road now.even me i drive a 1996 Dakota. And I rebuilt the engine for 3thousand..and I re did the suspension..so now I got a new truck well old body but new heart..that way better then a car payment..this truck should last me my whole life just like it did for my dad..
Absolutely, here in central Fl. many a choice sitting at the dealerships...
Not in Jax
@@gnd111always best to go to the smaller market dealers. Hell, you’re actually better off going to GA to buy than buying in FL. Unless you like paying those high Dock fees.
I can't picture any dealership losing money even when they drop prices by 10k to 20K depending on the car.. Any car that is in demand is up by 30K at least these days..
We put all of our chargers and challengers into ctp until they hit 500 miles because then we can drop the prices another 4k on all of them and 6k on hellcats
Wow that’s interesting
What's ctp?
@@alanhowitzerI don’t remember what it stands for, but that’s like their loaner cars I believe.
In 2015 I wanted to purchase a Challenger/Hemi in that blue, but the dealer stated that color did not exist, so I showed him a photo of that car in blue at the Car Show I went to.
Then in 2018 I wanted again to buy the Challenger/Hemi with the Whacker Hood, again they did not have that blue, it was dropped for that year. Very frustrating.
Dodge really flooding the tv air waves now with last call commercials. Uh it’s too late! the damage is done ! The consumers are getting smarter !
Thanks and nice to see dealers starting to take it dry. However here in Cummifornia, aint no deals from any brand to be had.
Yes you gotta love Cali.. I can't afford the air out there
I'm sad that the Challenger is going bye-bye. :/ Would love a Scat Pack! Just can't afford it! Great video, Racer X! Thanks for giving us the heads up!
Thanks buddy
Get u some tickets, you never know, prolly luck comes to u and you get a demon instead! 😉
I'm at a point of my life where I can afford one and did purchase a 2018 Scat Pack with only 9K miles and a 6 speed manual. I freaking love it!
@@oldsrusoutlaws 6 speed manual best choice! I got my scat automatic bc my wife doesn’t know manual and she drives it sometimes 🤣🤦🏻♂️
But I’m saving to get a hellcat manual, I’m looking forward to get one! 😮💨
Unfortunately, I have no idea how to drive a stick. :( @@hachyboy45769
