Saw a New Super Bee Yesterday! (Slobberrrrr)

[Mike Ellis]

Went to the Dodge dealer in Cleburne for some parts and lo and behold in the parking lot sat a bright blue metallic new Charger with 6. 1 Hemi and some aggressive styling. On the rear quarters was the familiar broad black stripe with the rumbling Bee, and on the front fenders a nifty chrome badge version of the Bee as well. The interior was awesome, lots of chrome and bling and a 180 mph speedo... and a sticker of $41K :{ :{ :{



I slobbered all over that car until the wife reminded me we were there for truck parts. "Truck? What truck?"



The salesman came out to talk to me, and told me that they were in high demand and going for list or list+ in some cases. I asked him about the Challenger and he said that they have been hearing people are already ordering them at $10K over list. He claimed the dealerships will only get 1 apiece, that they are treating it and the Super Bee as limited editions.



Hmmmmmm... .

I own a 2007 Yellow Superbee (see sig). While it's true that SOME dealers will jack prices, I paid invoice for mine last February, MINUS the 1500 rebate that applied then. Some of my fellow Bee owners got bigger rebates later in the year.



The 2008 Blue Bee will be the same in a month or two. Actually, even though there are only 1000 made, the 2007 Plum Crazy SRT8 Charger is the rarest (300 made). It was a last minute addtion by Dodge. There are a few new ones available still, and some new 07 Bees too, I think.

Oh, yeah, by the way - my Bee is fantastic. What a BLAST to drive.
