Like, how many times do people have to fall for that same old advertising ploy? How many people bought the "Special Edition, Triple 8-track Boxed set" right after Elvis died? Guaranteed to increase in value!
What are they worth today? Next to nothing.

It's all marketing bunk used to drum up a few extra sales. They probably needed another 2200 units sold to finally pay off all the stamping equipment needed to create the car. Which basically means 2200 people just got took.


People have been asking and petitioning for the SRT 300 to return since 2015. I don't think any of these orders are because they've been duped into thinking it's going to be a valuable collectors item. It's a car, it's going to depreciate. Witness numerous examples over the decades, 1976 Cadillac convertibles anybody? Anniversary Corvettes? I do think a goodly number of these orders are speculative, looking for a quick flip / buck. I think they're going to be sorely disappointed.
