There's some off the wall dealers out there.

Even for Canuck pricing this is high priced.Wonder how long it'll sit on their lot.

It depends on whether they're willing to negotiate at all on that price. $174k USD. I wouldn't be surprised if someone bought it tomorrow, but I also wouldn't be surprised if it sits for weeks. Eventually someone will buy it. I just wish I was in the position to be that buyer

I dont like the wheels...

I agree,lol. I can live vicariously through my buddy,who is in that position,as i can drive/race his Demon/ Red Eye etc,when i want to,but it's not the same as being able to buy one,and not think about the price.

Would your buddy consider adding any Americans to his circle of friends?

I don't usually like bright wheels, but I really like how those look on that car. Maybe if they were a bit smoked and didn't stand out quite as much. But I love the design of them.

I'm old,the wheels were the only thing i did like about the car,lol. I hate black / brass monkey style wheels,i'd take chrome or polished aluminium over those any day Theres a guy on one of the Challenger boards,that's actually putting old school 15X7 and 15X10 5 spoke Cragars on his late model Challenger,he's got the front hubs/brakes modified to fit the old school 15's,and is working on modding his rear brakes/hubs to bolt the back ones on,and damn the car looks good with them

I'm kind of a back-up driver for him,as he likes to take a couple cars to the track at once,and i step in as his second driver,lol.

That's an awesome-looking vehicle, but I have trouble getting my head around the fact that my first house in a great neighbourhood cost much less. Of course, that was a few years ago, you know, about 36 years ago. LOL

My only real complaint with the car is what is wrong with the people building a wicked car like that with an automatic transmission, that's just brain-dead in my books.

Too bad if the newby crowd is afraid of an extra pedal with a stick on the side.

I seen that car about a week ago. He also has Red 170.

I was look at Spyder but passed.

On the weekend Mecum sold 170 for $175k US, comes out to about $240K CA. So about the same price he's asking.

A 170 is not the same as a Ghost by a long shot,lol. The ghost is just a rebadged last call Red Eye,the 170 is a totally differant animal.

I know. He wants the same price for both.

The 8 speed is noticably quicker,and way easier on driveline parts,lol. You can buy a 717 horse Hellcat with a stick,but they don't put a stick behind the 797 horse and up cars,as the warrenty claims would probably go through the roof.You gotta think that quite a few of the 797+ cars are gonna have slicks/drag radials bolted onto them,and then subjected to fairly high rpm clutch drops,and the 6060 is probably going to get a bit grumpy,lol

So that's a no on the new American friends then?
