SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — So the world got to watch the first 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 go up on the block last night at Barrett-Jackson and the $400K price is now in the history books. Best of all, it’s all going to charity.
Here’s the sales docket (the Challenger was #1331)…we’re hoping to have some more photos and insight coming for you.

You probably need and go ahead and get a new Camaro. That way you have something that everybody will be driving also. If you don’t think so then the next classic car show you go to look and see how many Camaros will be present.
I know what you are talking about.I feel your disappointment!This is B S.They should have a car at every auto show.We pay good money to get in.Besides the parking,and 4.00 this and the 7.00 that. And then you want to eat.CHACHING…….
Whats the deal? I\’ve been to two Houston Auto Shows,And still no CHALLENGER. Im very dissappointed,Everybody else seems to have there cool cars CAMARO,FJ CRUISER,G8,Even Ford has 5 or 6 MUSTANGS,and DODGE has the same old Lame Crap Charger Cop Cars.WOW.Even TOYOTA had a NASCAR and a CRAFTSMAN TRUCK.But Wheres the DODGE CHALLENGER? Up someones butt in CHICAGO.IF this car is coming out in 2008 should\’nt you have more than a couple? Do you think you can talk and not show and still sell it? Probably so but that is UNACCEPTABLE for me.I WILL WAIT AND BUY A CAMARO for less and Blow the doors off the INVISABLE CHALLENGERS………………
IT really concerned me though that the Challenger was sold during NON PRIMETIME. I live on the east coast and it was after midnight before it even appeared on TV. I guess it would have to be Cheby or a Shelby to get the prime time slot.
the owner of barrett-jackson bought the car. it was up to 370k.. so the owner said “if you bid once more i promise i wont bid against you” so the guy bid 385… and it went and went.. then the owner went 400k. end of story. the #0001 Corvette ZR1 went for 1mill. forget what #0001 Shelby GT500KR went for… but it was more than 400k.
I think the people that bid on this car need to have their head examined and the guy that purchased the vehicle better lock that thing up tighter than a Chevy small block. Whatever thats suppose to mean, MOPAR is always known for expensive parts, which doesn’t mean that they are cooler. I still like my Duster I used to have, slow but cool.
