Yet you buy a $80,000 Hellcat or a $100,000 Ram and you get nothing 

[Simonic]

That's a really nice thought.....

[Bronzedodge]

I like the pen.  Guess it helps when you write the payment check.

After I bought my Shelby Charger in 1983, Dodge sent me a similar package of "Dodge Shelby" or "Shelby Dodge" merchandise including special Shelby key blanks. My car was only $9200, but it was a special interest car that Dodge was pretty excited about at the time.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

You buy a new $80,000+ Dodge Demon and a month later they send you a gift package that cost them about $5.00 to produce.

Who made out on this deal? 

But wow that horsepower 

Still not for me, not at $1000.00+ a month car payment for 5 years

Who wants to be in debt over a car they can't afford?  Pay for it, take it Home and be done with it.

Yep.....never had a car payment (or a new car) in my life......but have ran a crap load of very old cars!! Bought a few motorcycles on the strap in my youth though! You can do these things when you have mo wife/kids/mortgage.....(delete as appropriate!).

someone else noticed the irony of the DEMON giving/getting Christmas gifts

Your math....it only pays back $60,000 if NO interest is added to the loan. Dealers are doing 7 year loans now!

Dealers are doing 7 year loans now!

I ordered mine a few months ago when they were first offered.  I know the Owner's of 3 different FCA Dealerships and put a deposit down at all 3 locations.  I ultimately received allocation at 2 of the Dealerships but opted on the location where I normally get my Chrysler cars from.  (I'll "finance" it for one payment the day it comes in and I pick it up.....LOL). I am fortunate to know the top brass at FCA and ordered a "one of a kind" Demon.  It will have a color combination that no other Demon will be built or offered with.  I wasn't sure it would make it through the order process but by pulling a few strings, it is being "custom" built.  It won't be ready for delivery until after the first of the year or possibly the very early Spring.  I'll be sure to post pictures when it finally comes in.

Agreed. The scenario above was not so much as if I was to do it. It was aimed towards the average car buying consumer. By average I mean that there are more people who finance cars than does who buy them out right.

I would NEVER take a loan out for a car, new or used.
Hey I'm not perfect and I have issues but making car payments isn't one of them.

Yeah I know, should've stated more like $1400.00 which is way closer to $1500.00. That's why I put the "+" next to $1000.00.

Here's an online example of buying one of these Dodge Demons at the starting price and at 3.26% interest rate for monthly payments for 60 months.

7 month loans?? That's insane. I remember the max loan periods being 36 months coming out of high school.

EDIT: Link only goes to the fill out section page. Here's a screenshot of my example. Also I forgot to include a 10% down payment to the example above.

[Lennard]

Awesome car. Congrats

[hemigeno]

Just got my new Demon

Congrats, Dave!

I'm sure the list of volunteers to wrinkle up that passenger's seat bottom (high pucker factor) is quite long.

[taxspeaker]

Wow, wow, wow! Look at that car-gorgeous. COngrats! Did you spring for the full $1 back seat 
It is beautiful

[alfaitalia]

Cool looking car...we wont ever see one here....unless its a personal import. It was tested on Top Gear a couple of weeks back. They dragged it to prove how quick it was. They were very impressed by the acceleration but way less than impressed on the way it handled compared to most other cars with that sort of power. Which I'm guessing why I wont be imported.....Euros like cars that handle....except us US car fans over here of course.....but my Charger will handle....a bit....I hope!

If it didn't weight 4280 ish pound (1945 kilos....so about as much as Euro mid size pick up truck!..... it might actually go around corners......and be even quicker. Why is it so heavy??? Weighs exactly the same as the much bigger 4 door BMW M5.

[Lennard]

I've seen enough episodes over the past 15 or so years to conclude that that show is not a fan of USA cars and the USA as a whole.  Top Gear rarely has something positive to say about the USA and cars built here. ... so nothing new there.

[Mopar Nut]

Soon to be a four door?
