someone just told me there are 60(sixty) srt10's at the local dealer(really big dealer) and it says 30,200 for a rcsb. are they really this cheap? does that mean there are some used ones going prety cheap?

 

seems to me like they just WAY overstocked on them and need them off the lot for the year end tax stuff... i just did kelly blue book for a 2006 with 12000 in excellent condition with standard options and it came out to 35k.... trade in price so it seems it would be an absolute steal to get one for 30.2k

brand new MSRP is 48.5 and dealer invoice is 42.8

 

That's about as cheap as I've even seen used ones going for. I'd have to doubt that very seriously. There is a black '04 on Ebay right now for $25,990 buy it now...with 18k miles on it. There is also an '05 with 6k miles on it for $30,900, and it says it's below wholesale. I can't imagine any one dealer having 60 of them on the lot. I'd prob. go for something like this IF I were looking for one.

I hope that Henessey RCSB that was for sale last year, that I posted the link to....didn't burn some sort of twisted image into your brain! I remember everyone talking about how overpriced it was at $50k....and you were the only one who agreed with me that it wasn't THAT outrageous for a 10 second truck with all of those high dollar pieces on it. ****, I think it had about $8k worth of rims and tires on it, and a video to prove it ran mid 10's.

You're not.....are you?

If that's true...buy two of them and sell one for a HELLUVA profit!

 

i called the dealer today. this is a big freeking dealer. something like 15,000 trucks at any one time on their lot. the guy told me it was true. they had 55 of them this weekend and the cheapest of them were listed at 30,190. he also said all 55 of them are spoken for and that they started with 120 of them all 06 models. seems crazy to me but it doesn't matter, i was too slow and missed out. really to me $30k seems like a fair price for a new one. it just a 2wd truck with a big motor.

 

I thought I heard they are ending the SRT-10 ram production this year. Also heard one dealership bought all of the remaining srt-10's on the production line, probably this one your talking to.

They are redoing the V-10 so the Viper will be back out on top, the new vette stole it from them. No idea if the ram is coming back as an srt-10, but more likely we will see a big hemi in a ram as an srt-8. 6.1L isn't big enough, it will make for a high 13 second ram (if they don't put a hard to shift 6 speed in like the current Reg cab has), but you'll probably see the 6.4L (392) or the rumored 6.7L hemi get dumped in.

 

Id still be calling them every week telling them your ready to buy. Id say you have a good chance of getting one becuase one or two deals will fall through. Id speak to different salesman everytime.

 

he actualy asked me if i wanted to put my name in just in case one of the sales fell thru.

thing is i dont know if i would want one. if i could turn it around and sell it for a profit maybe but the way things work around here i would have to pay sales tax on it before reselling it$$$$

 

I would imagine that at least 75% of the 55 units are spoken for by other dealers....at least. Prob. not much chance of a deal falling thru. I agree that $30ish is a "fair" price for a new RCSB, and I would MUCH rather have the ECSB as it is much more truck for the money. I don't wanna shift gears either.....in a truck anyway.
