Thanks, I hope Kat lets me drive it some times! She is pretty exited, she wanted an Orange G8, but they did not make them in 2009, so we settled for a white one.

We ordered the Scat Pack in Go Mango.

When I started Looking for a replacement for the G8, she had the following "musts" 4-door sedan, RWD, V8 powered, and a large trunk. The only GM product that fit those was the Cadillac CT6 V, we looked at it and she didn't care for the styling, or the color options. Then she noticed you had to have a Sunroof & Leather Seats (2 things she would prefer not to have) Then we noticed the starting price $96,000 USD's!!!!! A bit out of our price range.

Nothing from Ford met her must have list, then we went to see the Chargers as the last Domestic option. She liked the Charger as soon as she saw it, then when she saw the Cloth Sport seats had a Houndstooth pattern (one of her favorites) she was almost sold. Then she drove one, even she said it drove much better than the 2009 we test drove before buying the G8. So the order was placed.

I have never owned a new Chrysler car before, some trucks in the past, and the long term durability was soso on the trucks. So I am a bit leary as we usually hang onto a car for at least 10 years. Fingers crossed.
