    Mr Norm's
    « on: October 18, 2007 - 04:13:18 PM »
    Check this out.  This is from the Hemmings eWeekly newsletter:

    Norm Krauss revolutionized how high-performance cars were sold, and went so far as to create the prototype 383 Dart GTS and the famed M-Code 440 Dart, both of which were later put into regular Chrysler production.

    Well, Mr. Norm is back and is offering a repeat of the golden days with the finest 21st century parts and accessories. However, the new Mr. Norm Mopars exceed the performance of the originals in every way. Each vehicle has its own production number and comes with a build book, production sheet and build order, and is delivered by Mr. Norm himself, just as he did back in the day.

    With production limited to 40 cars, Mr. Norm’s GSS Hemi Darts are capable of 10-second quarter-mile times. For more information, call 847-838-8749.

    Here's a nice full article about it, too.

    Looks like prices start at $149,000.  The article lists all the options available, too.  Pretty interesting read.

    I've seen one displayed at several local shows.  It's very cool, but I can buy 2 or 3 or even 4 Challengers I'd be happier owning for that Dart's $149K list price!
    I'd be interesting to know how many of the 40 cars have been sold??

    The $149,000 is just the base price.  If you look at the options listed on the full article, the top end engine alone (aluminum 528), is an extra $19,000 alone.  It looks like you could easily run this up to $190,000+.

    There was an article about this in Mopar Muscle not long ago.
    The Dart looks nice, but I would rather have Old's Cool car (looks better and faster), and I bet he did not pay $149,000.
