I hooked up my accelerator to my brake lights. I hit the gas, people behind me stop, and I'm gone.

Brilliance. Make just a few of the cars people might want, make tens of thousands of the vehicles no one wants. For a strong company like Porsche, a limited production vehicle is reasonable. For Chrysler, NO.

Limit production of the only model anyone will lust after, sounds like a recipe for helping Camaro sales.

Wow! What a stupid marketing move! Wait until gas is up to $4 per gallon and they won't sell any of them! People have been waiting so long for this car, they should make as many as they can get out the door. Instead, they let the dealers gouge the public and jack the price up so only the idiot collectors can afford them. It doesn't seem like there has been a management change at all at Chrysler!

fastonekiller, go ahead and drive a death trap tin can with a lawnmower engine. That will leave more gas supplies for me and others who appreciate the comfy ride of a "pig" with a high sprung to unsprung weight ratio.

If Dodge knows something, its Halo/concept cars. Viper, PT Cruiser has been around for a long time. They are good at pulling these things off. Prowler was even pretty cool... should have had an 8 though. But please god tell me they aren't only selling it w/ an autostick... please god give us a manual... if there is no stick on this machine, its dead.

From these comments, only a few at best seems they did before shooting off.
