This was a concern of mine. Pre-ordering not knowing exactly what it will look like, it will not look exactly like the concept in fact a bit different in some areas. The dealer brochure shows the concept but there is no full detailed brochure showing the customer what they will receive. I went to a dealership and there was nothing.

Even Dodge - 2008 Challenger - Muscle Car, Performance Car, Sedan has nothing. The front grille, spoiler, wheel, and exhaust tip are shown of the production model. The headlights on the production model appear to be recessed into the front grill, very non concept like. I don't like that pic at all, I still have some big concerns about the way this car is going to look overall, and it should be a concern if you plan on spending 40k +.

I think chazcron did a series of chops showing what it will look like. Poke around the Challenger thread in Allpar's news and rumors section.

Yes but, I am sure you understand my point. If the actual production car is not seen at the dealer level, that is a problem. Many people interested in buying the car did not go to Vegas. If it doesn't look like the concept in every way, I don't want it.

Owners and employees were allowed to view the production vehicle.

I'd laugh if the production version ended up being so different from the concept that people cancel their orders.

Painting it a loud orange will not dissuade people with a sharp eye.

Personally, I'm curious to see how the concept translates to the production model - it will be a good indication of how the "new" Chrysler will be doing things...

It's not a problem for them -- they seem to be getting plenty of sight-unseen orders. It's only a problem for you, and it has an easy solution -- wait until after its shown to place your order.

Giving a dealership money for a car you haven't seen is like paying for message boards features that are yet to be determined.

It isn't smart, and won't motivate Chrysler to put those photos up anytime sooner....

Just a note, the dealer I spoke with did not apply any mark up on the car.

Why is it that people who come across this kind of stuff don't have cell phones that were made after 1997?

I swear he used gun powder and a shrowd to take those pictures.

And, yes, those pics are old.
