Folks,

Here I am again with another new Challenger! What is wrong with me? I got fed up with the lousy service at my current dealer and was checking out another recommended dealer nearby. I wanted to set up a service appointment for my 2013 R/T. Sitting on the lot were about 20 Challengers, all SXTs except 2. One was a white 2014 SRT8 and the other was a Sublime 2015 R/T. I don't know what happened next.........but a couple hours later I was driving off the brand new '15 green R/T! That color is amazing! So, this has to stop. On 2/29/12 I bought #1, a 2012 Pitch Black 6-speed R/T. On 11/30/13 I bought #2, a 2013 Hemi Orange Auto R/T. Yesterday, on 11/30/14 I bought #3, a 2015 Sublime 6-speed R/T. Next year I cannot go out of the house on 11/30. I'll get a pic up with the sig soon. I could change my name to Back2Back2BackRTs but let's just leave it alone.

Yes I love the stick. My wife loved the auto but says she is ready to learn the stick and said let's do it. It should be easy for her as she is an expert motorcycle rider and completely gets the whole manual tranny thing.

Sounds like you just got nudged at the right time! Congratulations! You're gonna love all the attention the Sublime gets!

Oh, BTW, I've had to stay away from the dealers just because I don't want the temptation!

I know I'm biased but there just is no other new car on the market that looks as good as the Challenger. I don't look twice at car lots unless there are Challengers there - then it's dangerous.

Man luck of me I took my 11 RT Classic to get an oil change and was walking the lot and the salesman saw me and came out with the keys talking about let's go for a ride I said no thank you, you're not going to put me in a trick bag. I ran paid for my car and never looked back thank goodness they didnt have any good colours on the lot. I love my RT but a newer RT would be great. if there is an RT in my future it will be a PCP.

We all have the mod bug here, but you definitely have us beat!
CONGRATS on your Sublime!!!
I think this might be the problem Susie. Maybe he DOESN'T have the mod bug so he can easily let his cars go for new. I would have been back to the

dealership myself but I have so much invested on every level I just can't give her up yet......Maybe that's a good thing????

Either way congrats on the new ride and cool color:smileup:

Thanks all! This is not me. I typically hold a car for quite awhile and do some mods but I never really got started on the other two - maybe this one.

I was just about to do the exhaust on the orange one. I was surprised that the exhaust note on this new '15 R/T is very good and clearly better than the '13 or '12 R/Ts I had. Has anyone else noticed the better exhaust on '15s?

I'll try to get pictures soon. I brought her home in the dark on Sunday night and working this week so won't see it in the sun until next weekend.

I've looked over some of the newer Challengers on the lots. They are very nice, I really like them. Congrats on the new car and post some pics if you get a chance.

I hear you on the 2015 styling. I initiallywent to the dealership to look at a used 2013 challenger but while I was waiting for them to run some numbers on that car I made the "mistake" of sitting in my 2015. I liked the 2013 but there was no way I could pass up the 2015.
