The Hurricane isn’t going to do it. The second biggest problem is the pricing. So what did Dodge do? They made a marginally faster Hurricane in a car that will probably be another $5k over the Scat Pack.

Love it...or hate it...(if it's priced right)..it's gonna appeal to a whole new segment of buyers...the majority of us have HC's RE's..SS's..Demons...170's...these offerings are not for us...and not everybody needs (or wants) 700hp or more...our HC's...Challengers/Chargers are gettin long in the tooth...my guess they will sell...(IF PRICED RIGHT)...after all the 15/16/17 HC's were a steal..and they sold a TON of em....they have to make these affordable...not 80/90 grand....

Mine was right around the same......and I'm not taking issue with cumulative rate of inflation...but from a marketing standpoint...releasing these new offerings to reflect current inflationary market adjustments...(94,616.97)..is going to be a daunting task...now be it rebates...power dollars...or discounts of any kind...without them...these are going to be a tough sell...I hope the bean counters are far more savvy then the former hierarchy that guided Stellantis

I think salaries have mostly kept up over the last 10 years, but its hard mentally to accept a $95k price for a car, at least for me on one that's n ot a special model.

I don't think so. Depends on profession. Positions are still starting at what they were, maybe 10% more

Statistics say income has kept up for most professions with hourly having the highest change and executive / white collar the lowest, oddly. It just doesn't feel like it because inflation was so bad there for a while I think.

Why do you think this would get a whole new segment of buyers with only 50 more hp than the Scat Pack? You can buy a Scat Pack and do a $1500 Burger type of box and gain over 100hp as proven by Satera.

The Super Bee will probably be $10k over the Scat Pack or more with Dodges pricing on this car. The interior, slightly bigger turbos, upgraded suspension and those massive brembos are $$$$.

Truth is...most HC owners don't mod their cars...(sure alot on here due)...but most do not...even fewer track them..most will be content to buy them and drive them....that's the new segment of buyers this car will appeal to...
