2017 SRT Hellcat ......

It was funny to watch them move it out of the show room. The Wheels were spinning on the tile floor with the breaks on slightly. I’m thinking when all 4 tires need replaced I’ll get some summer tires rather than the all season.

 

I found out today why it had such low mileage. It was owned by a local dealer that supplied it as a pace car. Its been serviced seven times over the 3 years its been alive.

 

Have to find my CarFax
Over the 8-years they had it before I got it

Just noticed it has a sunroof. That's a crazy-expensive option.

 

Yes it does, even the Redline tri-coat pearl paint was a extra cost...I’m happy with the purchase....actually extatic...Tuesday cant come quick enough

 

I used that as a Negative to the salesman on mine and got another $500 off.
Told him how much problems with leaks we had with my wife's 2006 Jeep.
Actually use it all the time during the summer to safely VENT the heat out without leaving the Windows cracked down.

 

Wait, weren't you the RT that had the dealer REMOVE the cool DragPack Graphics?

 

Puts a new meaning on the phrase "smoke 'em if you got 'em"!

Save those photos of your car as a pace car, hardcopy and digital. That's a cool part of the car's history. You can always lay a copy of the photo on the passenger seat or dash when it's parked at cruise ins and car shows. That is, IF we ever get back to having them this year.

 

Same here...to me, it is a negative....and if I had bought new, it would not have one (it gives me more headroom without one)......but, I have used it to vent the heat out when I get in on a hot day a few times, and I have opened the cover to let more light in when driving.....but I don't use it when actually driving.

Usually tho, I remote start it before I get in & let it run for a few minutes for 2 reasons...1) it cools it off or heats it up, and 2) it gets the fluids circulating & puts a little heat into them before I get in start driving it

The possibility of a leak does concern me..............I mean on the Rams, the 3rd brake light tends to leak, and they put in a much large hole for a sunroof ??

 

I too see it as a negative. Very expensive and it adds a ton of weight. My friend is a GM at our local Dodge/Jeep dealer and he told me he won't order a Challenger with sunroof unless he can't talk the customer out of it. He told me how much extra structural bracing has to be done on the sunroof cars, it's crazy. That's why the option is so expensive.
