Monday! Monday! Monday! Monday Dec. 3. That’s when you can place your order for an all-new 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 at your local Dodge dealer. You won’t take delivery until spring, but still…

Oh, you’ll also have to pony up $37,325 and $675 in destination charges to get one of the first year’s limited run.

If the price seems high, that’s because these aren’t base models. These are the high-powered SRT8’s with a 6.1-liter Hemi V-8. Horsepower figures haven’t been released, but they should be close to the Charger SRT8’s 425 hp. That car starts at $36,355, by comparison.

Dodge is keeping numbers of the first year limited to build demand and keep discounts down. Recently, other Dodge SRT models have had cash rebates, something usually not seen in high-performance trim levels. The first year Challengers will come in three colors: black, silver and, of course, the orange you see here, and all will have hood stripes. A plaque with the car’s build number will reside in the cabin; however, we still don’t know exactly how many Dodge will produce for 2008.

Check out the first commercial for the new Challenger below and feel free to sound off on whether the price is right.
