1. Idiots with too much money paying for just another run-of-the-mill Dodge.

2. But if it was a GT-R it would be awesome... besides, its for charity.

Anyway, I love that colour. Looks fantastic... hope the 09's have B5 as an option for the lesser Challengers (SXT, R/T)

3. It's for charity! Richer-than-they-know-what-to-do-with collectors' cash is rarely blown in such benecifical fashion.

4. I tend to agree. If I think waht else you could buy for that kind of money, this warmed over 70s Dodge doesn't quite cut it, blue paint and all.

5. @ Memphisnet

No, it'd still be an absurd price until you get into high end supercars, which the Challenger and GTR definetly ain't

6. if you look at the auction, the person who won, just joined in the last 30 days and has zero feedback, so they probably got scammed.

7. More like paying money for a one-of-a-kind Dodge, which is how the muscle car market often goes.

I hope we see more high-impact colors like this blue offered on the Challenger for 2009.

8. I would think this one of a kind would hold its value well as it is the only Challenger in his color for the model year and honors Petty. Compared to the first Challenger, this is much rarer.

9. If this is run-of-the-mill, what's the Caliber?

10. Crap.

13. Try looking at the gallery before typing.

14. Ooh, ooh, ooh, it's such a pretty blue! It's so cute! All the other hairdressers in my salon will love it!

15. Exactly! It's three times cuter than any Z06, thus the cost.

16. Run-of-the-mill indeed:
Challenger = Charger (just another $21k sedan, big deal)

17. How does a Challenger = Charger? I guess you don't know what LY and LX mean.

18. Should have had the decal kit ditched, but the design painted on.

Red and white side stripes, red and white lip spoiler on the trunk, and red and white hood stripes as well. White painted wheels with red line on the rims.

And a big 43 circle on the door.

If you are going to pay a QUARTER OF A MILLION DOLLARS, it might as well look like a race car.

19. I think if this was just for a regular Challenger it would be absurd... but it's for charity.. so good on ya, winning bidder!

20. dont know if anybody noticed,but if you look at the bidder history,you'll notice,that up until the last sec it was the same guy upping his own bid,then at about the last minute,he got outbid by $100 measly dollars,i mean its cool he aint gotta pay,but if he wanted it,to lose by that much must suck
