Can you find one other person that agrees with you that OTD does NOT include tax, title, license, etc.?
Stock Redeye with Just DR’s ran 10.22@134 last night. (Not a press event with Evan Smith).
- Thread starter Purvis
- Start date
You stated you paid $53k for the car plus about $5k in tax title and license fees. This would equal $58k otd.
Again you say $58k otd.
100% stock is new wheels and tires. Got it.
I try to get correct info. You never stated I was wrong.
1
He tries to get info from you. No statement of how we are wrong.
2
Not $53k or $54k like you state. Again no correction.
3
Looks like skinnies. Not stock.
Non stock wheels.
Again no correction from you.
4
DR are drag radials. Drag radials are not stock. Neither are aftermarket rear wheels.
Again no correction.
5
No correction.
6
Still no correction.
7
No correction
8
No correction on price paid.
9
No correction.
10
No correction.
11
No correction
12
Denial at its finest.
No correction.
13
Finally we see a correction after 14 post talking about your price you did not pay.
You are confused...
You said it twice. We questioned in 14 different post and you never once corrected your two original statements on price paid.
Exactly. Not to mention the 14 times we corrected you.
All true!
You said it twice to start. We tried to get you to offer a true statement 14 times you refuses each time.
As this post shows!
Im putting words in his mouth in 3 2 1...
Your feelings arent gonna win
Op straight up lied. IMO hes extremely jealous that hes un able to get his hands on a new GT500. most of his posts in this thread are about how he got a smoking deal on a RE which he says is faster than a stock gt500.

Considering they’ve gone 1.7’s on 20” mpsc2’s and 10.6@134 in positive da, what is there to compare? Just a tire to get a 1.5 would put it at yer hero run on slicks with 17” light weight drag wheels.
$65k and $2500 in mods can get a shrewd buyer in red eye close to 9’s in rare air. We all know that.
$75k and $2500 in mods can get a shrewd gt500 buyer in the 9’s in rare air, but also consider one is weeks old and the other has $7970 of hp days special to move it since it’s 2 years old. No shame in that, I’d be happy to own and drive either, but I wouldn’t shit on a car that is 3 weeks old as being expensive. Red eyes had 5 figure markups 2 years ago.
Also I don’t see a $17,300 cost to dealer $18,500 carbon fiber package available for the red eye so why bother showing the long form gt500 ordering guide?
When I shop homes, I don’t compare the 4 bedroom 3 bath .75 acre pool patio and 6 car garage house against the 4 bedroom 3 bath .5 acre grassy pasture pad. Both are nice but I get why one is 33% more expensive. The houses are similar but the overall property is different.
Show me a factory redeye with painted stripes, carbon wheels, dct, 16.5” brakes, 500lbs of downforce, carbon dash, and rear seat delete for $105k or less and I’ll entertain the value prospect yer trying to paint.

This thread is certainly entertaining.
Ill repeat it again that i never deviated from the 58k price i originally stated i paid for the car. The OTD price did not include tax and tags and i clarified that once i realized certain people in the thread were making up there own numbers like “54”. Once i clarified that my Price did not include tax and tags, that should have been it. But this keeps going around and around like im trying to pull some kind of mis information campaign. Even after its been clarified many many times In this thread. people are even quoting me above where i said, plus tax and tags. So ill just keep restating it over and over and over. It was 58k plus tax and tags
There are certain members on here (hilariously) just trying to draw your attention away from The original topic, That fact that anyone can infact buy 10.2 second capable redeyes for 58k (plus tax and tags) . Its not that hard to do. You just need to be a bit patient and strategic with the order form, and find a deal combined with dealer incentives. There is one right now, brand new, near me for 61. thats a good starting point. Thats still a great deal.
the 2020 GT500 is considerably more At $$90K. anyway you slice it, it proposes a Vastly inferior “bang for the buck” proposition compared to the Redeye’s price after incentives. The Gt500 is not going to be the better car for everyone, and it certainly was not for me. Not even close.
And someone mentioned i am jealous. I assure you i am not jealous. I was about to make a huge mistake and spend 90k on an overpriced and marked up GT500 from a dealer that wanted to gouge me. bigger payments and a slower 1/4 mile. And i have no doubt that my GT500 would have Been regularly beaten by a car that i could have gotten for 30 k less. I enjoy the Redeye immensely and i know i made the right decision for myself. So much infact, that i came here to spread the word!
and who cares about street tires?!? No one uses them! If you do, youre going to get whooped on by all the DR’d Redeyes.
i know 95 percent of you will never switch. But if one of you even considers it, ive done my duty. To inform you of the vastly superior deal over at Dodge with the Redeye.
My Personal reasons.
-Ability to carry 5 people
-Better instrument cluster and tech On the 2019 redeye.
-feels more like a muscle car.
-way better sounding exhaust and supecharger. The GT500 sounds like pooh.and you cant hear the supercharger.
-better look- the Challengers Have more of a classic muscle car look than the gt500. Especially with headlight from a 2017 mustang GT. Its the first thing you see. Its as if they (the Ford execs) Took a project that was on hold from 3 years ago, dusted it off after a long hiatus and said,
“we should come out with that GT500. Most of the R&D was already done! It will make the new Mustang E a less bitter pill to swallow for everyone.. and lets not bother retooling the lights or front facia... just leave it as is and we can save a few bucks and get it out faster with the old 2017 headlights!! And we will use some ridiculous excuse about the carbon fiber in the front of the car needeing it.”
Oh and lets not forget the ”Golden ticket” to make it feel like you have won something from Willy Wonkas factory , to distract you while you spend your 100k on a supercharged mustang with the 2017 headlights.

-GT500s aren’t $90k
-Your RE is the stripped model
-2017 headlights vs 2008 chassis and body panels
-GT500 hero run 10.6 > RE hero run 10.8
-GT500 valúes won’t drop 1 cent as soon as you drive off the lot as you stated. RE will drops thousands.
The supercharger whine is in fact better on the RE. I’ll give you that.

Yer yeller. You a trump guy or a Hillary human?
No sir.
My price has always been 58. The people on this forum assumed “OTD” meant 54 and i told then no, that it was 58k plus tax and tags. Over and over again.
- To those saying its a stripper: my car is not stripped at all. Its just a very well equipped base car 2019 redeye. It even has heated seats and a heated steering wheel. All base hellcat Redeye. Lol.
- your comparison is not apples to apples. A better comparison would be if dodge came out with the Redeye, but then put headlights from the 2008-2014 challenger on the front and said- “oh we had to use the old lights because the Redeye is too cool for the newer lights”. That would be ridiculous.
-that 10.8 is far from a hero run. A better comparison would be to take that 10.8 run and compare it to the slew of Low 11 sec runs everyone ran with the gt500.
-Gt500 values will drop day one. Not in the typical sense thpugh. the money you pay in markup will immediately be lost. Money right out the window. IF you can find one for MSRP, then Yes they will hold for awhile. I highly suggest not paying a dime over MSRP.
- its not just the supercharger whine. Its the way the entire car sounds..have fun modding your brand new 90k GT500’s with exhust systems and intakes, to get them to sound decent.
