Why would FCA put a manual in a charger when they offer it in the challenger? The entire point for not doing it is because charger hellcat/scat pack owners want a fast/powerful family sedan.. if you want a manual get the challenger..
btw where did you rent a scatpack?![]()
Sedans and manual transmissions don't have to be mutually exclusive. I like to shift myself AND have my kids in the car while I do it. I think they would sell quite a bit.
Plus - FCA is willing to do just about anything to stretch out these platforms a little bit longer... so why not. Nothing to loose at this point (figuratively).
And you can get any kind of car as a rental in ATL. Budget had about 8 scat packs when I picked mine up (Charger + Challenger) . . . Plus two new 8 series and a few mercedes SUV's. I've even picked up manual Mustang GT's / Camaro SS's from there before. Just have to know where to look.


my knees would be screaming...

So if you have an original SRT hellcat before the merger and in good condition its gonna be a collector's item... down the line
they still exist...
