Production has begun on the 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 in Brampton, Ontario.

Hi again from Kokomo! I think you might remember my past post introducing our Charity Raffle to win a 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 (you can read it here.) I just came back from a journey to the Northern country, specifically a trip to Brampton, Ontario to check out the manufacturing of the new Challenger. What a journey. I was able to watch our charity raffle car being built. As it started down body-in-white and all the way through the final assembly line. I was fortunate to see some of the first cars being built, what a wonderful sight. It was almost comparable to my wife giving birth to our four children. She might not agree, but from a muscle car fanatic this was the ultimate.

Be sure to check out our new Web site for your chance to win this vehicle! It’s at http://challenger.americasfirstcar.com tracking the charity Challenger. Also I would like to share a few pictures that I took of our vehicle at the Brampton plant.

    Keep pumping out these cars so we can all get one. Don’t limit the production of the Challenger. Most mopar fans have waited over 35 years for a real muscle car so I think you are going to sell quite a few of them. I am glad they dropped the Magnum so they will have more space on the assembly line to make the Challengers!

    I am so happy to see cars coming back with their own personality. Being from the old school, I thought the charger was awesome until I spotted the challenger. This car rocks!! Thanks Dodge

    I’ve got an ‘08 Challenger on order, and I’m considering entering the raffle, because I’m beginning to think I’d have a better chance of winning the car than I do of ever hearing anything about the one I’ve got on order.

    I think I’ve read everything on that site but I can’t find any rules about Canadian Registration. I can’t find any contact info for the kokomo chrysler plants or the community christmas fund.

    We know that Canadian’s can’t buy new Challengers so does anyone have solid info about whether a Canadian would be allowed to win this car?

    That is a great car it looks like an old school but it is a up to date version. I like this car. I especailly like the hood setup and the way the back is to. It reminds me of a couple of other car put into one

    Since I live in Canada, this may be my best chance to get one, if we can even buy tickets in Canada.

Welcome

Back in the day, folks referred to holidays as "Red Letter Days" because of their color on calendars. They were times of excitement, tradition and celebration. Well, that's how we feel about the New Dodge and frankly, we've always had a special place in our hearts for red.
