During the unveiling of the Dodge Challenger yesterday, Chrysler's Vice Chairman, Jim Press, confirmed that Dodge expects to sell between 20,000 and 30,000 Challengers a year once production goes full. All 6,400 Collectors Edition SRT8 models due to hit dealers this spring have been sold and there's a waiting list for the 2009 models. And finally, more variants will be available next year with less powerful engines and a convertible version is supposedly planned.
According to Press the SRT8 has a higher top speed (170 mph) than BMW's M5. He has also said that the Challenger has more torque than the Porsche 911 Turbo.
