No way. Is this for real? Was this an impounded or confiscated car? CHP could have bought al least 3 sedans or even 2 SRT Jeep Cherokees or 5 bikes for that price. I'm sure there will be some investigation.

Isn't CA the largest US market for PAG/PCNA......I'm thinking subsidized pricing as part of a marketing program.

No lights and no antennas. Not even tear drop lights. No push bar in the front. Makes me think this was just done for show and isn't really the real thing.
