I was up at CAAP (where they build them) and there were several 2005 SRT-10's in the shipping room. All had a price of $85,295.00 My guess is either he is looking at one without the gas guzzler tax ($3000) or is talking about a deal they can get individually. The car was indeed priced at $81,495 in 2004 - without the mandatory $3000 gas guzzler tax. The car went UP in price, not down. Rest assured this is correct, as I have a 2005 in the wings...
