Sheesh, it's about dang time they offered a convertible! I've been saying that for years as it makes the perfect convertible that actually has a rear seat that's kind of usable. They would have sold a million to rental car companies as well as individuals. I'll have to check out that video, thanks.

It's a $26,000 option for it to be ordered, drop shipped to Florida and then shipped back to Mopar and then to you.

Just watched it. Some pretty sick stuff coming like that '70 Charger in CF. With any luck/blessings, this whole rush to EV's will slow down and everyone will realize that it will not work in the near future and that hybrids are a far better answer currently. JMHO.

yup. And last night they did the "big" unveiling of the little hybrid Hornet SUV coming next year. LOL.

The only upside was the GLH concept they debuted but didn't release the specs other than alluding to it having twice the power as the original GLHS.

But they SOOOOO missed the marketing coup they could have had by adding a single letter.

GLH = (Goes Like Hell)

versus

GLHC = (Goes Like Hell CAT)

Tonght they debut the upcoming musclecar that is replacing the Challenger and Charger. Maybe hybrid, maybe full electric? But no more hemi. We shall see...

They called it the Charger Daytona Banshee.

The Banshee looks just like the 1999 Charger concept car that debuted 23 years ago (with the grill off a 1967 Rally Sport Camaro). Everyone back then wanted them to build it.

I guess it took 25 years to finally get through the corporate approval process.

I spent another day cleaning the garage and discovered another acre of room. Enough room that I could move Grandpa's Lincoln to the far side of the garage next to Grandma's Firebird and then relocated the tiny, mini-viper next to the Full-Figured Heckkitty. I had no idea how large that Challenger was.

I found a whole bunch of more shrapnel to sell, too.
