Oh dear !!! I ordered mine on May 19th.....Man I hope they are
building it. I have waited almost 2 years total for this thing and I
can not wait any longer!! HAHAHA
If they won't build it then I am gonna opt for a 98 R/T and ask for
some sort of rebate or something. I really! hope that alot of this is
all just speculation on the dealers parts.
Can anyone update me? Being 6000 miles away from home and on a small
island does have its disadvantages.... hahaha Tanx!!

(maybe not a 97 anymore... haha)
