Hi All,

I am in the market for a new 2021 Dodge Charger Hellcat Widebody -- there is unfortunately a lack of inventory with the color/options I'm looking at, and besides that - it almost seems like all dealers are wanting a $5k-10k mark up on these.

In the past, I was able to easily purchase my 2018 Charger Hellcat from dealer inventory without mark up, and even at a discount from MSRP. However, the lease on that one is ending in a few months and I am looking to get a widebody 2021 (this time I will be financing, not leasing).

I've never ordered from factory before - Is it possible to order/customize a hellcat build from factory with exactly the customizations I want, if I am willing to wait the 8 weeks or however long it takes? If so, does anyone have experience on how to go about doing this, and if there would still be a dealer markup involved?

If it matters - I am located in Southern California.

You can't order a car from the factory, you have to go through a dealer.

Thanks for the info.

Does anyone know if there are any dealers in SoCal willing to do a factory order, without dealer added markup?

Build your own on the dodge website to get an idea on price, then walk into dealership (any one) and have them build you one, and see how much less they will do?

And you don't have to order it through a CA dealer.
