Yes, stock photos and no more information which leads me to believe they are lying in the email they sent me of this DD they claim is on their lot. I was expecting them to say it was on order but they say they have it, not that I'm interested in it though.
 
Just looked at that listing. It has a red 'Being Built' logo on the page, and when you click on that, it says:
  • This vehicle is being built now. Contact dealer to reserve this vehicle and discuss options for locking in pricing and eligible incentives.
  • Vehicles identified as “Being Built” are pre-production vehicles that are not yet on the dealer’s lot or in transit. Pre-production computer-generated images may be shown and may not be representative of the vehicle listed.
Their e-mail may have said they had it on hand, but at least their web listing gives an accurate status.
 
I figured as much. Typical dealer lies. Probably trying to bring traffic in to bid the price up.

I went back and checked, and I have exterior color for 11 of the 12 lightweight options:

6 units DB Black ( 1 without black package )
2 units White Knuckle
1 unit Vapor Gray
1 unit Triple Nickel ( without black package )
1 unit Frostbite

Total 11, of those only 2 without black package.

Just curious as to the 12th one and if it has the black package or not.

12th one is White Knuckle and it has the Black Package but it also has Bright Blue Dual Mopar Stripes too.

Mopar Monday Stats - December 11, 2023 - Another quick update this week as I am behind on searching for DDHC VINs. 2023 production ended just before Thanksgiving and the 2024s are now rolling off the line. It looks like Dodge made 2,500 DDHCs in 2023. I am about ~130 VINs short of that number currently and will try to catch up. So far over 230 2024 DDHCs have been produced and I will be working to create a new round of plots as production continues. As of today not a single 2024 DDHC has left JNAP though. There are no changes for 2024 so far. The build sheet for a 2023 and 2024 are identical and all 9 colors are still being produced even though Vapor Gray was not listed on the press release. Have a great week!

Looks the MSRP is going up again across the board.


The configurator also shows black/suede seats under the Plus trim, even though the image shows the red leather, and the model comparison description states Laguna leather.
Is this a change from 23 to 24 or another classic Dodge configurator mistake?

Edit: Grizz confirmed on the hellcat forum that the configurator is in fact shown inaccurate. Trims will be the exact same as last year.

Pretty insane they're increasing the MSRP this much when they can't sell hundreds of '23's at sub '23 MSRP prices.
 
I'm sure they expect demand to increase toward the end of the year once manufacturing starts wrapping up. And they'd rather keep as much of the profit for themselves vs that all rolling into dealer marks up, which will still happen regardless. In the meantime, they still have the option to offer thousands off MSRP, while not really impacting the bottom line.
 
thought I would bump this very good thread, with an interesting oddity on my 21 HC

seems my gas mileage range indicator gets frozen until I shut vehicle off and then restart and it reads correctly

It's designed to do that to avoid giving the vehicle's owner shock...:cool:
