All this excitement and they only deliver 2K cars. Far too many "ifs" from Tim.

BTW, my buddy woke up this morning and canceled his order. I'm sure hundreds more are or will do the same.
Why did he cancel:unsure:

Felt that $55K over wasn't in his best interest. To much money.

You have no contacts after your stint?
:ROFLMAO: they wouldn't even send me 25 Scat Pack back packs to hand out at Challengerfest!

Which I'll probably rename Speedy's Big Fun Track Race :rolleyes:

Maybe the CDM is tucked away somewhere, intensely studying up on all the facts and features of the Hornet line for his last month of gig...:rolleyes:

Get what you are saying but thought I would ask. I see everyone complaining about adm but I'm not hearing anyone doing anything. If I were in the position to get a car they would know who I am. Would it change anything, maybe, maybe not but I would be in the fight

My take is that it's intentional to support the dealers for what's likely coming. 10 ways they coulda done this better if they really wanted.

I have some contacts and think I could get one if I wanted but I don't so not gonna waste people's time. Bad ass car just not the style that fits mine so figure if they can make some bucks let em.

We're pretty much on the same page here with what we think is happening. Could be an exit bonus.

Someone on another platform brought up a good point. Assuming a lot of the Demon 107 owners will not drive them very much and keep as investments. Isn't long term storage with E85 somewhat corrosive to the fuel system? Easy solution would be to keep filled with 93 octane? Just curious...

Yep. Just keep ethanol free race gas in it with a conditioner would be my suggestion.

Set me up a deal then. I will pay up to $25K over and go anywhere in the lower 48. Just sayin......

I read the same thing and just shrugged my shoulders. Why would anyone put e85 in it to begin with if they are not going to drive it.

Unless you made a prior deal, your chances are very slim at that price. In my opinion.

I agree 100%. This is exactly the conversation that I had with @Demon1 yesterday. Tim is extremely intelligent and knew exactly what was going to take place with the 170 model. If they really wanted to do something, other than a token offer to previous demon owners or even Dodge consumers in general, they could have easily constructed it that way. The hype about building MSRP cars first, looks good and sound to the uninitiated; however, those of us who went through the first demon debacle, know that that carries little merit or weight.

What @Bowtie Guy really wants to ask is:

Is there any beer involved??? πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£. He is a very thirsty orphan! πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜‚. Your welcome @Bowtie Guy.

We had a good conversation about that. I really don’t understand Tim’s motivation for that though. Bonus for dealers - why?

If I owned a beer distributor ship I’d consider bringing him on as a taste tester.🀣
